Prioritising yourself isn’t a luxury it’s a necessity.
As a mother, a business owner, a partner, a friend, and a human, your energy fuels everything you touch. When you take care of yourself, everything else benefits: your kids feel a more present you, your work gets a clearer you, and you get to actually feel like a person.
But here’s the nuance we don’t talk about enough:
Yes, prioritising yourself matters. Deeply.
And also life comes with responsibilities. People rely on us. Deadlines exist. Kids still need dinner and cuddles and lifts everywhere. Growth requires discipline. Balance isn’t soft; it’s strategic.
So the real power move?
Learning when to pour into yourself, and when to step up for the things (and people) who genuinely matter.
Not martyrdom. Not selfishness.
Just intentional living.
You are allowed to matter.
And you are capable of holding both care for yourself and care for your world without losing either.
As we head into the busy season remember to look after yourself. X
