When it comes to Christmas time we tend to just be focused on those around us. We think about what gifts we need to buy others. We focus on what food we are going to make for others to enjoy and if you are a parent you are focused on your children’s end of year activities and school wrapping up. What about spending time this festive season focusing some of that energy on you? More specifically, what about being intentional about celebrating you?
As we head into the festive season, this can still feel like a challenging time. It’s not uncommon to be feeling overwhelmed right now. You may even be getting to the end of the year feeling tired, unmotivated, and a little traumatised even? Here are three things you can do to have a good end to 2020.
Simon Sinek talks about the importance of knowing what your WHY is. What is it that motivates and drives you? What are you passionate about? What I know coming out of the crazy year that 2020 has been is that moving forward my WHY, my passion is to save other women going through what I went through during those years. If I can help them fast track their way through it or avoid it entirely I think that is meaningful work. I am passionate about helping women live better lives by implementing smarter ways of living and working.
There is a silent 21st century epidemic that’s not being talked about. It’s the self neglect epidemic that afflicts many of us, but in particular women. You can choose any living generation of women and see gross self neglect present for most in some form or another. Whether it’s neglecting our health, our mental wellbeing or our emotional needs we consistently fail to put our own oxygen mask on first as we are so busy caring for others in our life.
