Who Holds You Accountable When You're Doing the Most?

Doing the most  (for the purpose of this episode) is
when a Black woman does WAY more than required or gives WAY more
(energy) than she has to give to people, places, or
things.


… either way she’s doing too much, and in
today’s episode Shirl and Natty are saying,
“you don’t have to do that
sis.”  But to be sure you’re NOT doing the
most, you need others in your  in your corner who hold you
accountable.


Today’s conversation is going to support you in being sure you’re
surrounded by people who care enough about your well-being to
say, “sis you’re doing too much“ and not just
say it, but also support you in NOT doing the most. 


A few things that came up in today’s discussion:


 – The importance of holding yourself accountable for how
YOU treat YOU
 – How your feelings, emotions, gut and past experiences
hold you accountable
when you’re doing the most
 – The difference between people in your circle and people
in your corner
– Why you need community to support you in holding yourself
accountable         



LINKS YOU’LL BE GLAD YOU CLICKED ON

Cultivate a daily practice of nurturing yourself with Nurture
Yourself Bingo
Nurturing yourself does not have to be difficult, but it does
need to be consistent, so why not make it fun. Nurture Yourself
Bingo is divided into five categories – one category per card.
Each category has twenty-four activities to support you in a
daily practice of nurturing yourself. All you need to do to get
started is print the cards, laminate them, and start nurturing
yourself.


Do one activity daily, marking a X in the squares as you go
until you get bingo. Once you get bingo, do something to
celebrate yourself. If you get bingo on more than one card at
the same time, up the celebration. Alternatively, you can work
on one card at a time and/or do more than one activity a day.
It’s your practice, do what feels right for you. Whatever you
decide, we’ve got FIVE CATEGORIES & 124
WAYS for you to do it.
