7. Prioritizing our health without guilt & those darn saboteurs!

Episode Synopsis: Continuing our conversation around internal work, I talk with Ashley Junghans-Rutelonis, PhD, a licensed clinical psychologist, who works with high-achieving women to reinvigorate resiliency, support mental health, and improve core leadership skills. As we know, many women don’t prioritize their physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual health and, if they do, they tend to feel guilty or selfish. In this episode, we explore some of the reasons why that is, ways to take care of ourselves, and how to lose the guilt. We also talk about why some people tend to sabotage our efforts to improve ourselves. There’s more to it than you think.

 

After Thoughts: We could have talked for days! This is a complex topic but one that I hear about all the time. As women, we want to have it all: the marriage, kids, an amazing job, and keep ourselves in tip top shape while we’re at it. That’s a lot to juggle without something getting lost. I think you’ll find our conversation very relatable but you’ll also find some tools to help you take better care of yourself without the guilt and navigate the saboteurs.
