How do you make time for self-care?
I had to make sure that I gave myself a designated time to look after myself. When I did not, starting out in the healthcare sector, having to put in extra effort was not as consistent as I would have liked it to be.
I found out the hard way. Burnout is real, and sometimes we might see it as passion. Not really, not in the long run.
Every candle is bound to run out of wax.
What do we do before we run out? Which should not be the question. The question should be asked before you even apply for any job: does this job give me time to take care of myself?
Prevention of exhaustion is more important than falling sick and then focusing on self-care.
