Don't Feel Guilty for Putting Yourself First | BMS | EP 168

Do you ever feel guilty for taking a break from work, even though you probably haven't had a day off in two days...or maybe even two weeks? Do you ever wonder why it's been so normalized to run and survive off of only your favorite Starbucks drink, a few bites (if that) of food -- and zero bathroom breaks? Why is it so easy to justify being a martyr in the workplace? How do we balance deep, impactful, and fulfilling work while also finding time for deep, impactful, and fulfilling rest - and not feel guilty about it? In this brand new, powerful, and intensive episode, listen as Ani Rivera and guest host Katie Guthrie address the issue of feeling habitual guilt and shame surrounding making time for rest from our work. Listen as they discuss different ways to feel good about making time away from our work for healthy, reasonable space to recharge and recuperate our mind, body, and spirit. Quotes of the week: "I've realized that, If I'm not in a good place, and if I cannot stand in a place of power and strength and mental and emotional clarity, then I can't help them. I can't help you If I don't help me." -Ani Rivera, Lead Trainer, Director of Education, Natural Beaded Rows®, Big Money Stylist® "Work will always be here. But if you are not okay inside, that comes out in your work. If you feel chaotic, your work is chaotic." -Katie Guthrie, Director of Operations and Events, DKW Styling, Big Money Stylist®, Natural Beaded Rows® To learn more about our September virtual convention and to secure your spot today, visit: https://conve.pages.ontraport.net/content For more podcast episodes, blog posts, and other amazing hairstyling tips, tricks, and transformations visit: www.dkwstyling.com Follow us on IG: https://www.instagram.com/dkwstylingsalon/
