Writing this reflection made me pause and ask myself a difficult question:

When does kindness become self-abandonment?

For years, I didn't know where that line was. I believed helping others always came first, even when I was exhausted.

Now I'm learning that healthy boundaries don't make us less compassionate. They simply allow compassion to include ourselves, too.

I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

Have you ever found yourself giving so much to others that you forgot to care for yourself?

What has helped you find a healthier balance? 🤍
