Listen up, burnout warriors! 👀 Today we're breaking down the toxic relationship between your to-do list and your community connections. 🤝🏾

Welcome to part 6 of the special wellness series, Community Wellness, where we're building our five-star wellness plan ⭐ - and here's the most important truth: Being busy does NOT mean you're building meaningful relationships. 💖

I'm about to spill ALL the community tea, from my days of being a total friendship martyr to learning how to make connections feel sexier than your morning coffee. I'm pulling back the curtain on my own community journey, and we'll talk about: why your self-worth isn't measured by your follower count, how to create connections that actually feed your soul, and how to break free from the "too busy" excuse.

We're busting myths left and right:

• Social media followers ≠ real community 📱
• Busy doesn't mean important 🚫
• Your squad is your self-care secret weapon 💪🏾

If you're ready to trade your lonely scrolling for genuine connections, this episode is your wake-up call. We're ditching the comparison trap and building a community that lifts you up, not weighs you down.

Grab your coffee, lace up, and let's get real about community wellness! ☕🏃🏾‍♀️
