Since the beginning of time women have been nurturers. They ensure everyone is loved, fed and safe. But who looks after them? Life is so busy that it’s too easy to forget yourself, your hopes, your dreams, what makes you happy and brings you joy. Women wear so many hats, but they prioritize themselves at the bottom of the totem pole in terms of looking after their own needs. This scenario tends to lead to dissatisfaction, demotivation and a lack of self-worth and self-confidence. Eventually, women start to question who the heck they are!

First, acknowledge you are exactly where you are meant to be right now. Then decide are you ready to take the next step and reclaim the woman within so you can sail over the hurdles of life with confidence, joy, courage, and a pink toolbox of skills to tackle anything that comes your way.

Like all humans, we want to love and be loved, be happy and live with our heads held high free from judgment regarding the choices we make. How the heck do we do that when social conditioning is ingrained in you that it’s selfish to put one’s needs ahead of others? The best analogy to answer this question is the Oxygen mask – place it on yourself first so that you can then assist others. The same analogy applies to your life as a woman, a daughter, a sister, a mother, an employee, a boss, or a friend. Ensuring your basic needs are met is not selfish, it’s called self-care and you are just as deserving of this time, as any other person, to replenish or restore what you need. In fact, I Give You Permission to Take Time Out For Yourself!
