It can be so difficult to balance achievement with self-care. When all of your focus is on your work and your goals, it's easy to spiral into an unhealthy pattern of ignoring your own needs and denigrating yourself for needing to engage in some self-love. If you're a chronic overachiever who feels stressed and burnt out, or if you want to prevent turning into this person, today's show is for you!

Coach, writer and well-being queen, Christine Livingston, is our guest today. We're talking about how we can push ourselves to achieve while still operating from a place of self-love. We need to rest and have boundaries, and it's so important to listen to that little voice telling you to engage in self-care while still getting important things done and reaching goals.

Some of the topics you'll hear about today include:

• How Christine has struggled with being an overachiever herself, and how she finally realized that her mindset was unhealthy and unsustainable.
• Tips on changing our relationships with ourselves: How to find that balance between pushing ourselves and being nice to ourselves at the same time.
• How to avoid the pitfall of simply not doing anything productive in the quest for self-love.
• Why boundaries are an integral part of creating a balance between self-love and getting stuff done.
• Some of the clues that can indicate that you're "going off the path," and tips on correcting your course.
• How to know the difference between your overachiever voice vs. your be-kind-to-yourself voice.
