Episode 9 - Self-Care

This week I have the pleasure of introducing you to one of the most awesome and powerful people that I know – Laurie Lindsay Mulligan!!! You will be able to tell immediately why I asked her to be a guest. And she’s really going to share HER – her story, her experiences, her insights and most importantly her courage!!! You’ll know what I’m talking about when we get there. This episode was all about self-care.  How to recognize it - how to maintain it - and what it looks like.  Best of all - this was all from the perspective of Laurie and her actual experiences! Main points for self-care during a transition: Beware and be aware of the Should vs the Need Plan for self-care – plan to be the “vacation version of our best self” Discover YOUR identity You can’t inspire people if you’re not inspired Find calm AND keep you chin up – literally and figuratively Give yourself some credit – reflect or even list our accomplishments! Seek the help you need If you’re not going to do it today – you’re not going to do it tomorrow Do a little bit everyday I do want to reiterate a point that Laurie made. Neither of us are medical professionals. If you think you are depressed – seek help. Have the conversations – ask the questions. Take care of you! It’s OK – there is no shame, no stigma. I promise you – if you follow any one of the tips that we discussed you will be in a better place. You will position yourself to Thrive in the transition.
