Make Yourself A Priority

Today's episode is for every woman who thinks she needs to do it all, for every woman who is exhausted and burned out. I'm talking to you if are constantly putting yourself last. Living this way caught up with today's guest, Natalie Fink. Working full-time and taking care of a husband and two children, she felt worn out, like she couldn't go on. She knew something was terribly wrong. I'd like you to listen to her story: how she reframed the way she was thinking. how she changed the way she was living. how she was able to bring her health back.   Natalie says: —You can't do everything on your own. —Ask for help. —It's okay to put yourself first. —Make your health a priority.   Natalie ended up being diagnosed with Graves' disease, a serious autoimmune disorder.  She started conventional treatment, but when she asked her doctors if there was anything else she could do, they told her no. No special diet. No vitamins. Nothing else she could do. She wouldn't accept that. She knew that wasn't the right advice. She did her own research and reviews for us what she found—that you can't just take pills from your doctor. To truly feel better, you deserve a holistic approach that addresses personalized nutrition, stress, sleep, movement (what we used to call exercise), and connection.
