f you are a high achieving woman who hears a compliment and constantly thinks
"If only they knew"
If only they knew how hard it is for me to fall asleep at night with the running list of everything I didn't get done
.
If only they knew how hard I feel like I'm holding on because if one thing slips my entire life is going to unravel
.
If only they knew how exhausted I am all the time trying to keep everyone happy and how lost I feel in the process.
.
I'm willing to bet you have started confusing "BASIC" and "NEEDS" in your head when what you really mean is "PREFERENCES" and "DESIRES"
.
Listen to how different it sounds when you change out "I'm just meeting the basic needs of my family"
to.
"I'm trying to meet every single preference and desire of everyone in my family"
.
Day in and day out you are probably doing the latter, and then absolutely berating yourself because you think you "can't even handle" the former.
.
It needs to stop because there is a better way, and the first step is getting radically honest about the difference between NEEDS and DESIRES.
Listen in to find out how!
