I know, I️ know….. SOOOOO much food.
But don’t miss the plot:
I️ am REALLY good at working long, hard hours and wearing many hats. So good, in fact, that my family notices ALL. THE. TIME.
Today, my girls are home as part of their summer break from school and my oldest got up and made breakfast for me. I️ am often getting reminders from my family:
“Have you had breakfast?”
“Remember to take a break, mom….”
“When’s the last time you ate?”
“Drink your water…. right now…”
😂😂😂
I️ share this as a reminder to you all that becoming a midwife did NOT make me any less human. When I️ remind you all, my clients, and everyone else to take care of themselves it’s because I️ have great group of accountability people / alarm clocks at home constantly reminding me to take care of my in between taking care of you.
So let’s take care of us, together. I’ve had my reminder to have some food and hydrate…. Now here’s yours:
❤️ Have you had breakfast? What’s the plan for lunch?
❤️ Don’t forget to take a break! Stretch, nap, get some air and clear your mind.
❤️ If you’re not ready for a mean, time for a healthy, protein rich snack (trail mix?)
❤️ Drink some water….. I️dc, do it!
Now, have a great day 😊
