#341 - Monday Motivation: "You can't pour from an empty cup. Take care of yourself first." – Unknown

Published Mar 16, 2025, 4:00 PM

Welcome to another short but empowering episode of Monday Motivation, giving you a dose of inspiration as you head into your week…

Today, we explore the importance of self-care and why you can’t pour from an empty cup. Inspired by the powerful reminder:

"You can’t pour from an empty cup. Take care of yourself first."

Three key takeaways you can expect from this episode:

  1. Why prioritising self-care isn’t selfish—it’s essential for showing up fully in your life.
  2. Five simple but powerful ways to start filling your own cup daily.
  3. How setting boundaries and making time for yourself leads to more joy and energy.

Take this opportunity to learn how to recharge and nourish yourself so you can give from a place of abundance rather than exhaustion.

As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonates with you from this episode and what you plan to implement after listening in. So please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here.    

💛 Have a wonderful week …and remember, it all starts with a dream 💛
