Episode Description from the Publisher

Have you ever wondered how you can remember exactly which cup your child wants, when the gymnastics leotard needs to be washed, what snack needs to be packed, and where everyone left their shoes but completely forget to eat? Motherhood gives us thousands of opportunities to practice anticipating everyone else. We notice the hunger before the meltdown, prepare for what’s coming next, and learn all the tiny details that keep our families running smoothly. Eventually, we get so good at it that we don't even realize how much information we're carrying. But somewhere along the way, we can lose the habit of anticipating ourselves. In today’s episode, we’re talking about why putting yourself last may not be the conscious act of self-sacrifice we often make it out to be. It may be a pattern you've practiced so many times that your attention automatically goes outward instead of inward. If you've been wondering why “just prioritize yourself” never seems to work, this episode will help you see the problem differently and start rebuilding the habit of noticing what you need, too.   WEEKLY FOCUS GUIDE   🎁FREE GIFTS Energy Reset Guide Reset Planner Stack Starter Guide Declutter Scorecard   👇Let's Connect HSM FREE Community Weekly Newsletter Instagram
