    S3E3 Boundaries Without Guilt

    I want to acknowledge that Setting boundaries can feel incredibly uncomfortable at first — especially if you're used to putting others first or avoiding conflict. You might worry that you're being selfish, letting people down, or risking relationships. That guilt is real, and it often shows up when you're finally choosing yourself in ways you haven’t before. But remember: feeling guilty doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong — it often just means you’re doing something new. And growth almost always comes with a little discomfort.

    Self-Care: Physical part II

    To recap, what the self-care wheel suggests eating healthy, exercise, sex, taking a walk as activities for physical self-care. I would like to add community and group work out activities to this list given the benefits it has in motivation and consistency if you are one who has an issue with this like I do. We know research says that exercise can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce risk of disease, strengthen your muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.  this is motivation enough to those who need it but there are people like me who need a little bit more of a push.

    Self-Care - Its Personal

    The self-care wheel lists these activities as ways of participating in self-care. Learning who you are, this could be through ancestry tests, and activities like self-reflections. In a previous pod episode, I mentioned doing a SWOT analysis on yourself, this is another way to learn who you are. Figuring out what you want in life is another activity on the self-care wheel. So is planning short and long term goals, making a vision board, fostering friendships, going on dates, getting coffee with a friend. There are activities like getting out of debt, just relaxing, writing a poem or a book, spending time with your family, cooking out, and learning to play a guitar.
