Self-Care Vs Self-Preservation

I used to think self-care was something I had to figure out completely on my own, but after many burnouts, realized I’d taken it too far. It became clear the version of self-care we’re fed by society might be quietly wearing us down and that it’s missing a few critical complements. On the flipside, I’m sharing a key element to self-care and well-being: self-preservation. I dive deep into how to set standards that protect not only your peace, but your overall wellness. I share how saying “no” and letting people go has become a staple in my self-care and one of the most caring things we can do for ourselves. This episode is honest, unfiltered, and might just shift the way you treat your own well-being.Here are the Highlights:(02:21) The misconceptions about self-care(06:10) The role of relationships in self-care(14:29) What is self-preservation and why is it so important?(32:51) Some practical steps for self-preservation(36:02) Community’s role in all of this(36:23) Learning your limits and setting boundariesFollow Lindsey Marie (formally Lindsey Schwartz) on Instagram: @LindseyMarieOfficial Learn more about Lindsey’s Powerhouse Women event HEREResources:Join SJ’s Spring Writing Retreat: WRITE THE DAMN BOOK! 5/7-5/9 in Denver, CO Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.
