Showing up for yourself + Reasons why yo...

Maria Fuentes
About this episode

On this week's episode, we are going to dive into why we don't show up for ourselves and ways to acknowledge those reasons and overcome them.  We all have busy lives and plenty of reasons for not showing up for ourselves consistently and authentically. We are going to lean into what those reasons are and figure out what they are trying to teach us. I believe that with enough self-awareness, you are able to transform any part of your life.  Hope you all enjoy this episode and I hope it inspires you to start showing up for yourself!
