#1 - What If You Don't Put Your Oxygen First?

Are you familiar with the airline safety instructions about putting on your oxygen mask first before assisting others? This episode of our podcast delves into this analogy to highlight the importance of self-care and the potential dangers of neglecting oneself. If we don't take care of ourselves, if we don't put our oxygen mask on first, we may find ourselves feeling depleted, overwhelmed, and ill. We might snap at people, feel stuck, or struggle with chronic fatigue and other health issues. I hope this podcast episode serves as a wake-up call to prioritize self-care and embrace resilience. Remember, the first step towards caring for others effectively is caring for ourselves.Show notes:[1:49] A call for self-care[5:29] Wired to be givers[8:24] Over-extending yourself will take a toll[9:09] Martyrdom is underappreciated[11:43] Look at how you are showing up in life[13:49] Changing your perspective about self-investment[15:29] Outro---Thank you for joining me on today's The Resilient Woman Podcast episode.
