In today's episode, I speak to "the productivity myth" and how deeply we can attach our self-worth to our ability to produce and create. Not only is this unhelpful (and a myth!!) but it may be part of the reason why you experience ongoing, recurring or frequent exhaustion.
I get a little vulnerable and share my challenge with productivity, self-worth and chronic fatigue along with an incredibly simple yet effective strategy to better manage by energy through a system called "energy pacing." If you would like to practice this strategy yourself, download my FREE worksheets HERE to get you started.
Exciting news... I have something really fun coming up this year that I've never done before (crafted especially for the HSP), and would love to invite you to be part of it! More details coming in season 4.. but to be in-the-know, be sure to Register for Gentle Living Nurture Mail
