Text your thoughts and questions!

Whether you’re working for someone else or yourself, personal time is essential for maintaining mental and physical well-being, preventing burnout, and boosting your productivity and performance. It’s something we know we need to prioritize, but it can feel so challenging to make the time for it. This week, episode 232 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how to prioritize personal time by setting boundaries!

In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I’m sharing the common challenges that multi-passionate entrepreneurs, caregivers, and people pleasers face when setting boundaries around their time, and I offer you actionable steps to take right now to start prioritizing your personal time.

I cover the following topics:

• Six reasons why it’s essential to prioritize our personal time.
• Why it can be such a challenge to take personal time (even when we acknowledge the benefits).
• Three steps to take when you’re ready to break free and create your own boundaries (and protect them).

Prioritizing personal time isn't selfish; it’s essential. It's about filling your own cup so you can show up as your best self for the people and passions you care about.
