“Don't put yourself last because you were designed to be first.” ~ Damaris Carroll

 

In this episode of BOSS™ Talk, I sat down with Damaris Carroll to explore her personal journey with self-care and discovering how to choose herself first. Damaris is a creator and implementer of effective plans to optimize DEI and Employee Engagement in organizations. Damaris creates, maintains, and supports training programs to enhance employee’s performance. With over 15 years in the DEI space Damaris has become a Subject Matter Expert in DEI organizational change management. 

Damaris deep dives into how she got comfortable with being selfish when it comes to her self-care and the journey of unlearning negative behaviors when it came to caring for herself.

 

Here’s what you can expect from this episode: 

  • Damaris’ background journey to self-care 
  • Redirecting what her value was based on
  • How religion and cultural identity played a role 
  • Advice for those struggling with prioritizing their self care

Whether you can see yourself in Damaris’ story or are wanting to support someone else in their self-care journey, check out this episode of BOSS™ Talk.
