212 // How to Put Yourself First

Hello and welcome to episode 212 of The Mindful Kind podcast. 

In this episode, I've answered a lovely listener's question about how to be less of a people-pleaser and start prioritising self-care.

Here are three reasons why it's important to prioritise self-care:

• It can be important for maintaining good mental health 
• It can teach people around you to engage in self-care, too
• It can boost your self-worth and self-esteem

And here are three tips for putting yourself first:

• Clearly know what you want and need so you can communicate it 
• Offer to help when you're actually able
• Be prepared for some resistance when you stop people-pleasing (at least at first!)

Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
