If you’ve ever told yourself you’ll “do better with self-care” only to watch it slide the moment life gets stressful, you’re not alone.

Most high-achieving women know self-care is important, yet it often feels like one more task on the never-ending to-do list!

In this episode, I share why that happens, the deeper beliefs behind it, and how to reframe self-care so it feels nourishing instead of draining.

You’ll hear about:

• Why high-achieving women often struggle to prioritize self-care without guilt.
• The hidden connection between productivity, worthiness, and self-neglect.
• A “child self” perspective shift that helps you care for yourself differently.
• Everyday practices that actually ground and recharge you (not just quick fixes).
• Reflection questions to help you define self-care in a way that feels natural and consistent.
