Self-care and relationships are deeply intertwined-because I've found that deep-level self-care reinforces my worth, which enables me to attract and hold onto healthy relationships. Which then inspires me to continue taking good care of myself so I can give the best of myself to the people I love (without losing myself in the process).
Left unchecked, these kinds of beliefs can guide us to choices that don't really serve us in all areas of our lives. In my twenties, that meant living in a seedy single-room occupancy building in Times Square.
It didn't occur to me until much later in life that I cared for myself so poorly because I cared for myself so little. I've made tremendous progress on all these things, and I've seen a ripple effect in my health, my work, and my relationships.
