What it really looks like to prioritise yourself

(A compassionate nudge for busy, neurodivergent women and perfectionists) You know you should prioritise yourself — but what does that actually look like when you’re juggling ADHD, business, motherhood, and perfectionism? In this episode of Pause Purpose Play, Clinical Psychologist and ADHD specialist Michaela Thomas explores what real self-care looks like beyond bubble baths and quick fixes. She shares the three types of clients she sees — from those running on empty to those beginning to create balance — and how each can benefit from more compassion and support. You’ll also hear real success stories from Burn Bright members who learned to set boundaries, manage their energy, and finally put themselves on their own to-do list. If you’ve been thinking, “I’ll prioritise myself later,” this is your gentle (but firm) reminder that now is the time.   🌿 You’ll hear about: Why self-care feels so hard for perfectionists and ADHD women The three types of clients Michaela works with — and where you might fit Real-life examples of women who learned to prioritise themselves How to choose between therapy and coaching for the right kind of support A final invitation to join Burn Bright before doors close Ready to stop running on empty?
