Start a Personal Wellness Plan

Balancing the demands of your organization, your family and other responsibilities can make it challenging to prioritize personal wellness. 

Especially as nonprofit leaders, we tend to value sacrifice over our own well being, working countless hours a week and going after our goals so hard that suffering becomes seemingly noble. 

😔But chasing affirmation from feeling important and busy just leaves you stressed and exhausted.

So we have to acknowledge that this whole situation we’ve created in our lives and in the world is just not working for us. I’m interested in helping you see that personal wellness isn’t a selfish action but one that empowers you to support others.

If we are not well for ourselves, how can we be well for our families, our community, and our work? 

Here to help is my friend Kishshana Palmer, a leader, trainer and all around amazing human  who explains her Five Star Wellness Plan to give you space to let go of the judgment. 

She breaks down the physical, mental, spiritual, financial and community components of personal wellness to teach you how to refocus and get started moving out of the place where you feel stuck.
