Elizabeth Cush on Taking Care of Yourself

Where do your own needs fall on your priority list? In this episode of Woman Worriers, host Elizabeth Cush talks about how coaching can help you learn to start taking care of yourself.

I was trying to take care of other people instead of just pausing and listening to what I needed.
— Elizabeth Cush

Show Notes:

Is your to-do list filled with things that make you unhappy? Sure, we all have things we have to do, but too often we also wind up doing things we’re asked to do that we don’t really want to. How many things do we wind up doing instead of the things we want or need to do for ourselves? In this week’s episode of the Woman Worriers podcast, host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a mid-life women’s life coach, talks about her own journey of discovery around the importance of self care. She shares about how she came from a place of not knowing what she needed or whether she’d be cared for to a better place, where she can not only trust that she knows what she needs, but she can prioritize herself—and shares insights into how you could takes steps on your own journey to self care.
