Struggling with guilt every time you try to put yourself first? In this episode about Dealing with the Guilt of Prioritizing Yourself, I share my personal journey as an empath learning to prioritize myself without the constant weight of guilt.


As someone who's always put others first, I break down why empaths feel guilty about self-care, how to recognize these patterns, and practical strategies to overcome the guilt that comes with setting boundaries. Learn how to:

• Identify where your guilt comes from

• Stop taking on other people's emotions

• Set healthy boundaries without apologizing

• Build resilience while maintaining your empathetic nature

• Balance caring for others while filling your own cup


Whether you're burning out from caring too much or feeling selfish for taking time for yourself, this episode offers genuine guidance on embracing self-care without the guilt. Perfect for empaths, caregivers, and anyone who struggles with putting themselves first.


Join me in discovering how to prioritize your wellbeing while staying true to your caring nature. Remember, you can't pour from an empty cup.
