Description

Are you the one who’s always reliable, the steady hub for your family, workplace, and friends? If you find yourself exhausted, disconnected, or feeling invisible, this episode, "The Risks You Take When You Fail To Be Present For Yourself," is for you. I dive into how chronic self-neglect isn’t just about a busy schedule, but a deeper, slow-burning risk to your mental health, relationships, and sense of self.

I discuss openly the habit of self-abandonment, shoving your needs, desires, and joy to the bottom of the list. We explore how this pattern leads to anxiety, depression, midlife burnout, strained relationships, and even impacts your physical health.

You’ll hear why it’s so common for women (especially in midlife or those balancing caregiving roles) to feel lost not just in their responsibilities, but in their own identity. Most importantly, I’ll guide you through actionable steps to reclaim your self-worth, create healthy boundaries, and develop life-changing self-care routines. It’s time to rediscover what genuine presence means and why it’s essential for your well-being.
