You keep everything moving.But somewhere in the middle of being everything to everybody else, have you slowly disappeared from your own life?This week's Room2Breathe Word of the Week is MERAKI—a word used in modern Greek to describe putting your soul, creativity, love, and a piece of yourself into what you do.But we're taking it one step deeper:Does your life have YOU in it?In this episode, Shawnta’ Hill explores what happens when responsibility becomes identity, being needed becomes proof of worth, hobbies become productivity, and the life you've worked so hard to build no longer feels like it has your fingerprints on it.We're talking about self-abandonment through responsibility, losing yourself while taking care of everyone else, rediscovering joy and creativity, allowing yourself to change, and learning how to put yourself back into your own life without abandoning the people you love.Because maybe you don't need a whole new life.Maybe you need more of yourself in the life you already have.Your joy matters.Your creativity matters.Your preferences matter.Your dreams matter.Your presence matters.You are more than what you do for everybody else.Reflection Question: Where in your life have your fingerprints gone missing?Welcome to Room2Breathe—where healing has a soundtrack and you have permission to make room for yourself, too.🌐 Visit SelfCareClub.org
