When I started MSC, it was so important to me that I stay transparent with you guys in all ways. Through my services, products and also just the content I share on socials.
So I wanted to talk about my last few weeks...
I've been burning the candle at both ends. I've been working a lot more than usual. I've had countless appointments and events. My to-do list has been running wild. I've stopped doing my habits and routines that make me feel good. I physically show up to appointments with my coaches but I'm not always there mentally or emotionally.
I truly believe we have seasons of life. There are seasons where we are busier more than others and I do think that's where I'm at but if I use that as an excuse then I will burn out. And if you're using that as an excuse, you'll burn out too.
Last week, I shared a post about how it's been a long few years and I'm tired. I absolutely think as a collective, we're all tired. There has been A LOT going on (and still going on). But I also haven't been taking care of myself entirely either.
My house is immaculate. My clients are getting full support and love, as always. My two businesses are booming in all areas. My family and friends are getting quick replies. My kids haven't missed a single appointment or event. My to-do list is regularly cleared.But me? I've been far from immaculate. I have not been giving myself support and love and I have not been taking care of myself.
My body has been giving me all kinds of signals. I've felt sick. I've felt exhausted. I've been impatient with my kids. I've been short and snappy with my partner. I've been overwhelmed and anxious.
The funny thing with burnout is that we usually don't even realise what we're doing until it's too late so if you're reading this, take a moment to see if you've truly been prioritising yourself and if not, that's okay! Tomorrow is a new day and you can start over. I've started over and I'm already starting to feel better (with a slightly longer to-do list haha!) 🥰
