Summary

Do you identify as a people pleaser or an overfunctioner? Then this episode is going to hit home for you. Today we sit down with Yara Heary of the @lifeafterbirthpsychology Instagram account. Yara is a therapist, a speaker, and a coach who really likes to help women thrive on their journeys both as women and as mothers.

Yara chats with us on how over functioning can affect us both short and long term. She gives us prompts to replace more work with actually taking a break. We cover how it is impossible to run on maximum capacity at all times and how it is a necessity to build in recovery time to our busy lives.

If you are looking for a means to spend some time on yourself, be sure to check out the HERself Self Care Course. In it we give you a step-by-step tutorial on how to do things to actually make self care and recovery a priority.

0:10.0	It doesn't mean that that time has to be now. That time can be in a week's time.
0:14.8	It could be in a month's time, but that time is always available, right?
0:22.4	I'm Amy and I'm Abby. And as women, we are constantly comparing ourselves to others.
