Episode 65: The care you give vs the care you accept.

from Todd Talk · host authortoddwhiller

“We give better advice than we follow.” After getting bit by a dog while helping someone out, I found myself doing what so many of us do—minimizing it, brushing it off, and convincing myself I didn’t need to do anything about it. Until I asked one simple question: What would I tell someone else to do? That question exposed something important—the gap between how we care for others and how we care for ourselves. In this episode, we’re talking about: Why we downplay our own needs How small neglect can turn into bigger problems And how to start treating yourself with the same level of care, urgency, and respect you give to everyone else Because taking care of yourself isn’t selfish… it’s necessary.
