 We've all been there: we're juggling too many tasks, we're exhausted, and we feel highly stressed. This stress is causing us to be unhealthy, and being unhealthy is only making us more stressed. It's a never-ending cycle.

According to this Forbes article,  half of the women they interviewed felt burned out by all the tasks they were juggling between home and work. They also felt exhausted and highly stressed.

WebMD has an entire page dedicated the to symptoms of stress such as headache, fatigue, stomach issues, frequent colds, and chest pain.

At some point, the stress causes us to be unhealthy and being unhealthy makes us more vulnerable to being stressed.

After my second full burn out episode, I decided to make a change in my life. Actually, one small change at a time.   

Because of my own experience, I was really excited to speak to my special guest today is Maja Miller, who has been the woman who has been successful in all the ways believe success should look like. Yet, she realized that the price she was paying was harming her physically.

Love Your Amazing Self!

Truth!

In this season of gift-giving, thanksgiving and joy, it is also important to remember that we should give thanks to the one person that we tend to forget. Ourselves!

Learning to appreciate what you have right now (gratitude) and appreciate yourself (self-love) are skills that many of us have to put effort in.

Ofusu Jones-Quartey, a meditation teacher and hip-hop musician, write gentle poetic reminders of self-love in his new book, "Love Your Amazing Self: Joyful Verses for Young Voices." The book is beautifully illustrated by Ndubisi Okoye and each page invites the eyes to read heartfelt words that make you stop and realize that time and each experience is precious.

Ofosu is also known as the recording artist - Born I - and has been teaching mindfulness and meditation for greater than 10 years. He uses these practices and his beliefs to meld them into hip-hop and electronic music. 

In Ofusu's words:

"The world has its ideas of who you are
But you don't need them
To be the person you really are inside
is Freedom"
