Ep. 56 ~ Protect Your Energy: The Secret to Protecting Your Purpose
In this episode of Journey to Self-Love, we’re getting real about something we often overlook—our energy. So many of us are focused on chasing goals and building dreams, but we forget that if we don’t protect our energy, we’re doing ourselves (and our purpose) a disservice. Life can be exhausting, and it’s easy to get pulled in all directions—whether it’s from draining people, toxic situations, or the endless noise around us. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle—trying to keep up with everything and everyone, but if we’re not careful, we can find ourselves in the proverbial “chasing our tails,” constantly trying to catch our breath.This episode is all about how to tune into yourself, set boundaries, and protect what’s truly important: your energy and the pathway to your purpose. I’ll be sharing tips on how to recognize what’s taking from you, how to stay grounded, and why taking care of your energy isn’t just self-care—it’s purpose-care. If you're feeling burnt out, lost, or just out of sync, this episode is for you.Let’s talk about how we can protect our purpose by first protecting ourselves. It’s time to honor your energy and remember that your well-being is the foundation of everything you’re meant to do in this world.
