Mary Jelkovsky
About this episode

The biggest mistake people make with self-love is explained this episode. We talk about how a scarcity mindset is emblematic of low self-worth and why we must be PROACTIVE when it comes to self-love.

You will learn how to...

  • Identify scarcity thinking in your daily life
  • Understand the societal roots of scarcity mentality
  • Practice proactive self-care to avoid burnout

Remember: Take care of yourself in small ways before you burn out in a big way.
