Let's explore the self-centered nature of a wellness journey and the discomfort that can arise when prioritizing ourselves. While self-love is important, it's not the only ingredient in the recipe for a fulfilling motherhood.
Connection with others is also necessary, and science shows it's one of the easiest ways to feel better in a demanding world. We will examine Maslow's pyramid of human needs and determine just how building a foundation of self-love and authenticity can make it easier to connect with others.
Ultimately, self-love isn't selfish; it makes us better at loving others.
