Burning out is one of the primary risks you face as you work towards your goals and so focusing on self-care as a way to minimize the impact of burnout is one of the best investments you can make.

For self care I enjoy being out in nature and traveling the world. When I’m not working I’m often hiking, paddle boarding, traveling, or hanging out with family and friends. These activities keep me grounded, both mentally and physically, and allow me to recharge in a way that helps motivate me to work. They allow me to stay inspired, energized, and emotionally present for the couples I work with. The more balanced I feel in my personal life, the more I can give to my clients and the weddings I shoot. Read More>>

For self-care, I prioritize a consistent skincare routine, regular facials, and working out to stay active and energized. I also focus on my overall well-being by spending time in nature, which helps me reset and find balance. Whether it’s a hike or just enjoying fresh air, it keeps me grounded. These practices not only help me feel my best but also allow me to be more present and effective when caring for my clients, ensuring they leave feeling confident and refreshed. Read More>>

Self-care is an essential part of my life, and I practice it in many ways: therapy appointments, spa days, solo dates, journaling, reading, and freestyle dancing in my living room. But the most transformative practice is traveling. In 2017, I intentionally incorporated travel into my lifestyle to support my mental health. Read More>>

The work I do is deeply personal. Every day, I stand beside survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, offering them a voice when theirs has been taken, a path forward when the way feels impossible. Primarily, I work with college-aged survivors of sexual violence, many of whom are grappling with the aftermath of trauma while trying to navigate young adulthood and struggling to be believed by institutions meant to protect them.  Read More>>

The way I practice self-care varies from day to day as there’s no one way to do it. Some days, I carve out time to read a book; other days, I’ll put on music and dance, or I might choose to meditate. It all depends on how I feel or how I want to feel. Taking time for yourself is so important, especially in today’s fast-paced world. Read More>>

Personally, I utilize what the OM Investments summer newsletter, https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/achieving-life-finance-goals-7081793498080804864/ , forewarned. I start every day essentially with fruit and green or oolong tea with lemon or lime. And typically end the day with yogurt, fiber, and fruit. Not only does research show these items can help with stress, but practically all of those items help with weight loss as well Read More>>
