Self Care. Why the guilt?
However, in terms of practicing self care for me, because it has raised my anxiety level and makes me anxious. Almost every time I post on certain social media, I go, oh, my God, this person's going to copy me. They're going to do what I do. And I have to take a breath and say, well, if they do, they do. It's not going to prevent me from being who I am or take away from who I am

Hey Leanne, just wanted to say this was another great one and that, yes, it can be difficult at times to prioritize your own personal self care over others, but it is often good to take care of yourself first and foremost, although you should also take care of others as well. I know, I've done it myself. I often wanted to take care of my family first, especially those that I live with, and then myself next

They have it and to make sure that they are fulfilled, even if it's through us and at the detriment of us being fulfilled. And there's a balance that you have to find recognizing that no, not all the time is there someone out there who needs you, or they are also people, humans with lives. They understand that you need time to yourself. You are allowed that there's nothing wrong with, even if they contacted you

What you're doing right now is you're trying to relieve pressure, not add more pressure. So just something to keep in mind. You don't owe anybody anything. And maybe then if you unfriend them or unfollow them or whatever, block them on social media, they'll learn to come up with their own content. People used to copy my content all the time, so I know exactly what you're talking about. But yeah, you don't owe anybody anything

Hey, Leanne. Just wanted to add some other thoughts to this, and that is you should do what is best for you, first of all, and you should speak to this person and let them know how you feel and maybe make some suggestions to them of how you can proceed with things. But you should not be overly critical with them or be aggressive, but you should do it. You should offer them kindness, as they have offered kindness to you

It's not that we don't have it. It's that we choose not to take advantage of the resources that we have. There's no sense in paying rested to take care of your kid. You're paying someone to do it. When you have family or friends who are very dedicated and will assist you because they love you. They love you and they love your children
You. As always, I love what you have to say, and I so agree. Thank you. As you can tell, probably from my voice, it has been a little bit of an area of anxiety for me. So, yeah, I feel better because I did voice it with this person and I have written it down in my journal and, yeah, I think I will let it out in the universe
It's. Wow. Thank you so much for this. I really appreciate it. And I really needed to hear that because I do tend to give so much to others and it is a challenge. Not going to lie for me, to take care of me, basically. So I really, really like what you had to say, and I'm definitely going to take it to heart. Thank you so very, very much. Hope you're having a really wonderful day. Bye

You know, this is an awesome subject and actually sitting here thinking of some things before I saw your post, and I'm glad that you posted it. I will say that a long time ago, I used to feel guilt, but I don't now. Because if we don't take care of us, how are we going to take care of our children? If we're walking around here stressed out, can't sleep, bags under our eyes?
And I'm glad that you're doing what you need to do to take care of you. Sending you all my best and I look forward to some of your amazing swells as well. Thanks. Bye
