How to Look After Yourself Without Feeling Selfish — How to Give Yourself Permission
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You know you need to look after yourself better. You also know that the moment you try, the guilt kicks in.
Nobody else can give you permission to take care of yourself. That part is yours. This episode helps you find it.
- why looking after yourself feels selfish — and why that feeling is lying to you
- the real cost to others when you don't look after yourself
- why waiting for permission from outside yourself never works
- how to give yourself permission — genuinely, not just in theory
- practical ways to prioritise your own wellbeing without guilt or apology
For anyone who gives generously to everyone else and is finally ready to include themselves.
This podcast was created to help big-hearted, driven professionals break free from overwhelm and experience more clarity, ease and joy.
