Description

When most people think of self-care, they imagine candles, baths, or maybe a vacation. But sometimes the most powerful version of self-care is the quiet, resolute no — especially when that no means honoring who you've become, not who you were. In this episode, Kristi shares a personal story that reshaped her view of self-care, and explores how trial attorneys (and high-achievers in general) can redefine care not as indulgence, but as essential fuel for growth and performance.

 

💡 Key Takeaway:

Self-care isn't always soft — sometimes it's about saying no, letting go, and trusting that your next version deserves room to grow.

 

✨ Favorite Moment:

"When I said no to something I used to love — not because it wasn't good, but because it wasn't me anymore. That was the clearest self-care I've practiced in a long time."
