142. Breaking Free from Feeling Selfish
•
Shelby Hansen
Do you ever feel guilty for taking time for yourself? If so, you’re not alone. Many women, especially those stuck in the fawn response, have been conditioned to believe that self-care is selfish. But what if that belief is actually keeping you exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from your true self?
In this episode, I break down:
- Why women are taught that self-sacrifice equals goodness
- How overgiving impacts your body, mind, and nervous system (with research-backed stats)
- Insights from some of my favorite life coaches Brooke Castillo and Jody Moore on redefining selfishness
- A three-step process to start prioritizing yourself without guilt
It’s time to let go of the fear of being selfish and start living a life where your needs matter too.
Listen now and take the first step toward guilt-free self-care.
