Repeat after me - self-care is NOT selfish! Mary Ann once worked as the CEO of “AbleChild Africa” and has decades of experience in developing charities and programs meant to make a positive difference in lives all around the world. However, even with all of her great success, she found herself combating a common plague in the professional world: burnout. Join me today as we discuss how to maintain your fiery passion in the face of stress, time constraints, and professional burnout. Mary Ann shares her own personal experiences with burnout and explains why self care is important. You will leave this conversation with tangible tools to promote caring in your own life. This conversation will help you develop tools to care for yourself so that you can continue to care for others! MY THOUGHTS Healer. Former Charity CEO. Speaker. Self-care Coach. Mary Ann worked in the non-profit and charity world for many years because she wanted to help others and make a positive impact on the world. After many successful years, she felt herself dragging her feet in something that she used to be passionate about. Soon, Mary Ann realized that she had spent her entire life helping others while ignoring her own needs. This led Mary Ann to quit her high-energy job in order to figure out what she needed to do to feel passionate, compassionate, and alive again. Now, she spends her time making sure that other change-makers and change-oriented organizations do not fall into the trap of burnout. She coaches organizations and people on how to practice self-care so that they can continue to change the world and make a positive impact on society.

Hello lovely Couragemakers, and welcome to episode 66 of The Couragemakers Podcast! This week I'm excited to be sharing my conversation with Mary Ann Clements. Mary Ann is founder of Jijaze: a community supporting women to replenish and take care of themselves as they work to change the world. She is also the co-host of the Change Making Women podcast with Ziada Abeid; A Tanzanian broadcaster. Originally trained as an anthropologist she has many years experience in International Development as a leader and grant maker. She's also a storyteller, podcaster, writer, connector, #nia teacher, action learning facilitator and shadow work coach. She co-founded both The Story Party and the Red Tent Directory. Her work is all about bringing women together to make big change happen in the world.  In this episode, Mary Ann shares her journey as a change making woman, from her background in the international development and women's sector, to burning out and creating a community for change making women. We really dive into how self care and self replenishment needs to be sustainable, how working harder doesn't mean working better, and how you can change the world without exhausting yourself, and how in fact, that's counter-productive. We debunk a lot of myths win the episode, including taking your self worth out of your usefulness and productivity, giving yourself permission to spend your resources on yourself and flipping this narrative that self care has to be earned. We also have a great conversation about the change-making world, systemic inequality and patriarchy and how we don't all have the same starting line. I love Mary Ann's mission, and I find her views on making a difference and playing the long game so refreshing in a world that glorifies burnout and working to exhaustion as a badge of honour, and that success comes quickly. This episode is a great reminder that it's okay to use some of your resources on you, in fact, the world would be a better place if you did. It's also a much needed reminder that building things that have a very real impact and have a sustainable structure take time to build, and that's okay. I know you're going to love this one!

I started Couragemakers because I wanted to create a platform for passionate and unconventional women to have honest conversations and to share their stories, struggles and dreams. The intention behind this podcast is to inspire and encourage creative and mission-driven women to live a wholehearted life and follow the beat of their drum. When I'm not recording episodes, writing bullshit-free, very vulnerable and encouraging Sunday emails to fellow couragemakers or making new friends with the wonderful guests, you can find me working on all manners of magic over at That Hummingbird Life. THL is the online home for unconventional creatives and multipassionates who want to show up unapologetically and intentionally as who they are, and really own, live and share their many stories. It's made for couragemakers who have so much great shit to give the world and want to leave their mark but have too much self doubt standing in the way!
