Putting Yourself First Isn't Selfish, It's Selfful...

Let's just start off by saying that it should be 100% mandatory for all women and moms to listen to this episode... So many of us don't think self-care is selfish, yet we feel guilty when we take time to do something for ourselves because we've been socially constructed to think this way. It was during our conversation with psychologist Dr. Natasha Williams in our exclusive parenting group that we had this huge "aha" moment when we realized we've been taught that women are supposed to sacrifice rather than live a selfful life and that we actually continue to condition ourselves to believe this on a daily basis. This, in turn, teaches our children (including our sons) that women should apologize when they do things for themselves, and it perpetuates into a never-ending, generational cycle that we need to break ASAP for the sake of ourselves and our kids. Take a listen as we beat the sh*t out of this topic, and be inspired to make a change so that you can start living the life that you want to (and deserve to) live.
