This month, let’s talk about something we often forget to give ourselves: permission. Permission to pause, to say “no” without guilt, and to put our own needs on the calendar like they matter—because they do. Self-care isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity, and June is the perfect time to reclaim a little space just for you.  This week, your calendar needs you in it.

“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes… including you.” — Anne Lamott

You make time for everyone else—now it’s time to carve out space for yourself. Whether it’s a walk, a quiet moment with your coffee, or something that simply helps you exhale, schedule it like it matters—because it truly does. As you look ahead to the week, try making your personal time one of the first things you block out. It’s a small shift, but it sets the tone: your well-being is not an afterthought—it’s a priority.

Today's Coaching Challenge 

What’s one thing that recharges you, and when can you put it on the calendar this week?

Think of it as your personal power-up time—like plugging in your phone before it dies. You don’t need a big vacation; sometimes, just a short window of time with no demands can feel like a spa day for your soul.

Action to take

 Block out one hour just for you and treat it as non-negotiable. Bonus points if it involves something you love.
