EP. 12 Self-Care is Parenting Yourself
Self-care is parenting yourself. Think about it for a minute. As a parent or caregiver to the children in your life, you fill many roles but the number 1 fundamentally important job that you do is to keep the children you care for safe and healthy. I believe that a way to thrive physically and emotionally as adults is by learning to fill that role of parenting for ourselves. Daily self-care in your self-parenting role is being your own parent and enforcing the rules you’ve established for yourself to hold yourself accountable to the habits that let you feel good, even when you don’t want to.
Listen in as I share some ways that you can parent yourself into some hardcore invaluable self-care.
