No matter who it is, no matter what responsibilities you have, no matter what you have to do to make sure you’re okay, that you have what you need to be the best version of yourself you can be, you deserve to do it. After so long of prioritizing others before yourself, it’s time to be the first person you take care of. It’s true what they say, you can’t take care of anyone else if you’re not taking care of yourself. So whatever rest looks like for you—give yourself permission to do it. It’s all going to be okay and you deserve to be okay.
