Some of the habits we’ve been told are “health Some of the habits we’ve been told are “healthy” are actually keeping us stuck—especially for women trying to do it all. ⁠ ⁠ As a registered dietitian and wellness coach who works with high-achieving women, I’ve seen it (and lived it) firsthand. ⁠ ⁠ Here are 5 things I see all the time—and have experienced myself:⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Burnout isn’t a badge of honor. It’s your body asking you to slow down.⁠ 2️⃣ Being busy doesn’t mean you’re thriving. Sometimes it’s how we avoid what really needs attention.⁠ 3️⃣ No supplement can fix a draining lifestyle. Start with sleep, stress reduction, and nutrition.⁠ 4️⃣ Obsessing over “clean eating” might be the messiest part of your wellness routine. Progress > perfection.⁠ 5️⃣ You don’t need another restrictive plan. You need a routine that feels good and fits your real life.⁠ ⁠ If any of this hits home, I see you—and you’re not alone. 🥰⁠ ⁠ Want support building habits that actually stick? Let’s chat.
