Hey ,

For so many years (before I had established any real boundaries for myself and my energy) I prided myself in being the go-to person that could help anyone who needed me.

I used to love being that person. 

I got you. 

What do you need? 

You want my arm? 

You want my leg? 

No problem.

Until one day, I couldn't get up.

I literally couldn’t get myself up off the couch. I had chills, fever and I was an emotional wreck.

I had burned myself to such a crisp. Building a business, raising my children and trying to just help every woman under the sun that I could, even the ones I didn't know.

And I was sacrificing myself over and over and over again until it got to the point where my body was like, I have tried to give you so many messages.

I tried calling you.

I wrote you a love letter.

I knocked on the front door.

You didn't answer any of the calls.

So now I am shoving your ass down onto the couch and forcing you to pay attention.

And that's unfortunately what happens for most women.

You wait until something massive happens, or you wait until you watch a girlfriend or a coworker or family member go through a huge health scare, and only then do you stop and think.

And so when we wait too long to set boundaries around our time and energy, when we wait until we're missing periods, when we wait until we're at that point where we're like, now, things are so bad - we are missing an opportunity to coach your body up in a suboptimal state instead of waiting for everything to go sideways.
