Episode 15 - 12 Rules for Life

The Radical Act of Self-Care & Treating Yourself Like Someone You Truly Value

Are you the go-to person at work? The reliable friend? The supportive partner or parent? Chances are, you spend a significant amount of your energy and time looking after the needs of others. You’re responsible, you’re driven, and you care. But what about the person staring back in the mirror? How often do you extend that same level of care and responsibility inwards?

Many driven professionals, particularly in the demanding early to mid-life stages of their careers, fall into a common trap: prioritizing external responsibilities at the expense of their own well-being. We push through late nights, sacrifice personal time for deadlines, and often neglect our physical and mental health in the pursuit of success. This isn’t just unsustainable; it’s a fundamental misallocation of our most valuable resource: ourselves.
