Be As Badass As Wonder Woman By Taking Care of Yourself
Challenging the myth that self-care is selfish, and replacing it with a badass truth for women.
Myth: Self-care is selfish.
Reality: Women need to take care of themselves in order to be a badass in everything that they do.
Think of it this way. The definition of selfish according to Merriam-Webster is, "concerned excessively or exclusively with oneself : seeking or concentrating on one's own advantage, pleasure, or well-being without regard for others". Take out your lasso of truth and wrap yourself in it. Now ask yourself, when was the last time I was excessively or exclusively concerned with only myself? More than likely, you are playing multiple roles in your busy life, and the role of Y O U comes last.
Your bracelets of submission can't dodge the bullet of burn out forever. You don't need an invisible jet to get to a badass self-care destination. What you actually need is a mindshift. So take your royal tiara and pop the myth bubble that you are selfish for taking time out to fuel up. You are your own Wonder Woman!
Listen to your strengths and be purposeful in fueling those strengths up with what they need for victory. Whether that is time alone to read a book, go to the spa, or soak up the sun, make it a priority! Self-care is your very own power ring.
Badass tip: Making time for yourself makes you better at every badass thing you do even without your Gauntlet of Atlas .
