It can be difficult to choose yourself when you’ve spent so much of your life giving to other people.
When you’re a caring soul, and I know you are, it’s often easier to put everyone else’s needs first. They matter. They’re important. You tell yourself you’ll get to what you need later.
Except later has a habit of never arriving.
The truth is, you matter too.
If you’ve ever been on an aeroplane, you’ll have heard the safety briefing. If the cabin pressure drops, you’re told to put your own oxygen mask on first before helping anyone else. Do you know why?
Because if you lose consciousness, you can’t help anyone.
Life works in much the same way.
When you’re constantly running on empty, giving from what’s left instead of from what’s full, everyone feels it. You become tired, stretched, and disconnected from yourself.
Choosing yourself isn’t selfish. It’s one of the kindest things you can do, both for yourself and for the people you care about.
When you choose your own path, something begins to shift. You create space for the things that bring you joy. You stop living on autopilot and start making choices that feel true to who you are. And the people around you don’t lose you. They gain a version of you that has more energy, more presence, and more joy to give.
That’s when you realise something important.
All is possible.
So today, I want to leave you with one thought.
What would change if you chose yourself, and trusted your own path?

This didn’t feel right, and when he asked what he could do, he was heard about coaching and searched for a company to train with. When he found one that he thought would be good, he signed up and then regretted it. The coaching method wasn’t right and wasn’t what he was looking for….
