When was the last time you asked yourself, "What do I need right now?" My guess is it's been a while.
As parents (especially moms) we are conditioned to put our kid's needs before our own. And that makes sense - babies come into this world completely dependent on the big people around them for survival.
But as our kids grow and become more self-sufficient, our brains don't often get the message and we continue to suppress our own bodies' needs in order to meet their constant demands.
It is hard work to re-prioritize ourselves but it is crucial if we want to enjoy our family life. On today's episode, Carley shares a personal story about how hard tending to yourself can be and also how to break the self-sacrificing cycle.
