About this episode

This episode discusses the common issue of women deprioritizing their own needs and offers ways to reconnect with oneself.

Unfortunately - it is really common for women to feel like they no longer matter in their own lives. It happens gradually and simply, because they run out of time and energy to even "care" what they like or want for themselves.  When everyday is focused on meeting the needs of everyone around you - it makes sense that you just kind of "turn your own needs and wants down". At some point though, we have to tune back into ourselves. This episode is about why women deprioritise their own preferences, the discomfort of not knowing what you enjoy anymore and realistic ways to begin reconnecting with yourself in small, effective ways. This isn’t about adding more to your plate.It’s about restoring the signal of who you are.If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself, this is your starting point.
