Nothing lights me up more than the topic of women pursuing themselves and a life THEY want.

I know too many women who have put themselves on the back burner for their entire lives (I was one of them!) because they didn’t want to appear selfish because either they were a mom, a wife, a caretaker, or a million other roles.

Society often tells women, directly and indirectly, that we are the ones who need to make sacrifices in order to serve others. We are the ones to give up on our dreams to meet the needs of others.

We are the ones who need be at the beck and call of others when they need help.

But what about OUR needs? What about what WE want? Why do those things get discounted or dismissed so easily?

There is no better time to start then now, regardless of our age, to pursue ourselves and the life we want.

I have so many thoughts on this and I’m sharing them today on this podcast episode. Tune in then come over and join me on Substack in our AWEd AF community to chat further. The link is below on where to find us.
