“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
― Audre Lorde
This week, we continue with our theme of what we want to create in 2018 and talk about the most important thing that you can do to ensure your success in the next year.
Today, we’re taking about the importance of investing in your mental and emotional health (and why it is a feminist issue).
All over the world, women are taught to swallow their emotions, to think they are silly and frivolous. We’re told to “snap out of it” or “calm down”.
The truth is, patriarchy works when women doubt themselves and defer to society. Women feeling inadequate, doubting themselves, and thinking they are not enough is NOT to women’s advantage but rather to the advantage of patriarchy and structural racism.
So, taking control of your mental and emotional life is an act of feminist liberation and true self-care.
Join me for this short but important episode as I explain the immense benefits of investing in your mental and emotional health and why you can’t afford not to begin this work in 2018.
