During my burnout recovery, I realized everyday small broken promises had a significant impact on self-trust:
- I was someone who would snooze my alarm [Commitments broken]
- Work on holidays and weekends [Boundaries broken]
- ignoring early signs of burnout [Body signals ignored]
- Not advocating for my needs at work [Self-abandonment, erodes sense of worth]
Without self-trust - my mind and body did not believe my own boundaries, so how could I expect others believe and respect them? How have you been with the promises you make to yourself?
