I’ve always wanted to please people and I thought that if I said yes to everything, I would achieve just that. The problem with being a people pleaser is that I was putting everyone else’s needs before my own and in fact, what actually happened is I burnt out.
Ever catch yourself mindlessly scrolling social media, constantly comparing yourself to everyone and everything that passes your fingertips? Don’t worry we all do it!
I was restricting myself to my comfort zone and subsequently filling my mind with negative thoughts. I was stuck and needed a push to get out of my comfort zone.
When you hear the term self-care, you might associate it with indulging or pampering. Although it has been widely marketed as just that, it’s so much more!
