We aren’t used to tending to ourselves and our own needs. This makes us question if we’re doing things “right.” We may feel like we are being selfish or wrong for doing this. Maybe close friends or members of our family are accusing us of being selfish. Thankful for the work of Dr. Nicole Lepera whose work inspired this episode.
