(Start Here) I Was Last on My Own List - This Is That Story

New here? Start with this one. This is my story — and probably a little bit of yours too. At 44, I was a single mom with two kids, no savings, and everything to prove. So I did what so many of us do - I worked harder, gave more, pushed further. I overworked. I overpleased. I said yes when I meant no and kept producing results to prove I was worthy, capable, enough. And then my body said: not so fast. The panic attacks started. Not as a breakdown - as a message. My nervous system was waving a white flag, telling me I had been last on my own list for so long I had forgotten I was even on it. So I started small. I looked at trees in the sunshine. I danced in my apartment. I laughed with friends. I started stealing tiny moments back for myself - what I now call Delicious Moments. This is that story. And if you're in the messy middle right now, running on empty, holding everyone else together - this one is for you. Start here. 🌻 Loved this episode?
