As a woman, you’ve been taught to put other people’s expectations before your own. How do you unlearn this behavior and start putting yourself first?

We’re covering a lot of ground, including how to listen to yourself, honor your own wants and needs, set boundaries with loved ones, and challenge societal norms that don’t resonate with you.
Christine is also sharing four small but impactful things that you can do to prioritize yourself.
