    #290 - THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKING TIME FOR YOURSELF, with Kristina

    In today's busy world, finding time for yourself often feels like a luxury. Yet, it’s one of the most important things you can do for your well-being. In this episode we delve into the profound impact of dedicating time to self-care and reflection. Why taking time for yourself is not selfish but essential. And how we can get so caught up in our daily responsibilities that we neglect our needs, leading to burnout and exhaustion. I share a personal story of a rejuvenating day retreat and how it sparked inspiration, creativity, and a deeper sense of peace for me - and how by carving out time for self-reflection, relaxation, and activities that bring us joy, we not only fill our own cup but also become more present and energized for others. Key Takeaways: Discover the transformative power of taking time for yourself. Learn practical tips for scheduling self-care into your daily routine. Understand the importance of setting boundaries to protect your 'me time.' Get inspired by my personal retreat experience and how it sparked creativity and renewal. Tune in and be inspired to prioritize yourself. Because when you take time for you, you show up better for everything else in life. As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonates with you from this episode and what you plan to implement after listening in.
