Women are often the multitaskers of the family. We have to take care of kids, house, food, and husband. We have to remember everybody’s games and appointments. Women keep track of all the little, but oh-so-important things, it takes to make our individual worlds move. However, often we forget to take care of ourselves.
Unfortunately, a think a lot of women feel that it is wrong or selfish to take care of our needs, to make ourselves happy.
I had to do a lot of growing up to understand that if I don’t take care of myself, I really cannot…
