In today’s video, I discuss self-care and retroactive jealousy in relationships.
Read or watch below to learn strategies for managing self-care and retroactive jealousy in a healthy way.
That’s exactly how I think about self-care.
So, just to share a personal example—I’m a coach, and I spend a big part of my week coaching.
I’ll actually be coaching again shortly after recording this video.
It takes a lot of my time and energy, and I know I won’t be as effective in that role if I don’t take care of myself and, honestly, allow myself to be a little selfish sometimes.
In other words, if I’m not taking time to do things that are just for me—for Zach—things that make me feel whole, re-energized, and inspired, I start to feel off.
And the same goes for you.
If you have people in your life who love you, who need your energy and attention, make sure you’re taking time to be a little selfish sometimes.
Taking the time and space you need to feel re-energized and inspired is so important.
