I was sitting with my girlfriend having coffee. She looked tired, exhausted and had only 30 minutes before picking up her kids.
She kept glancing at her watch, clearly not present.
“You don’t look so good.”
She smiled, tired. “I know. I’m run off my feet and never seem to have time for me.”
I sat there smiling, waiting.
“You look so relaxed,” she said. “I know you’re just as busy. How do you do it?”
“I do 3-4 hours of self care.”
“A week?” enjoying the dream.
“No – a day.”
She stared. “How?”
You’re probably also wondering how – listing everything on your plate thinking, “How can I possibly add 3-4 hours of self care?”
I’m here to tell you, it’s not just possible, it’s essential to your success, expansion and embodiment of your Sovereignty, of becoming who you’re here to be and creating the life you desire.

Self Care as the Gateway to Your Sovereign Self
You are a Sovereign being. You are here to remember her, express her, be her, and share her with the world. To allow her to step forth in all that you do and in every aspect of your life. She is directly connected to your Soul’s purpose and essence.
Being Sovereign, you have an innate unshakeable authority over your own being. You know your worth, lead from the heart, trust your inner guidance. It is a Reclamation of Self as Sacred – a deep remembering of who you are. That you are whole, wise and nothing outside of you is required to validate your truth. Deep self care is the pathway to get there.
Radical Self care isn’t an act of luxury, it’s a foundational act that creates the structure to expand and hold your Sovereignty.

Self Care in Flow: The Path to Daily Embodiment
Many view self care as overindulgent, long spa days. While those are lovely and sometimes needed, they aren’t the only way to practice self care.
As Sovereign energetic beings, we require self care daily for expansion, flow, and spaciousness, for embodying the next level of ourselves. To shift into that space of conscious creation, being in alignment with what we want, and maintaining those higher vibrational levels.
Our self care must mirror this flow and expansion of who we’re becoming.
Expressing Self care for Sovereignty should not become another item on the to-do list or feel like a have to. It’s about BEING, not DOING and it must be nourishing, supportive and enjoyable.
This is how I explained it to my friend, it wasn’t about carving out huge blocks of time, but about ease and flow woven throughout the day.
– It was starting my day with 30 minutes of my Miracle Morning. A 10-minute walk after dropping the kids off at school. It was 20 minutes of breathwork mid morning. Small nourishing moments scattered through my day.
– Some were daily routine, while others were added in on various days, such as a massage or bike ride. By day’s end, these pockets added up to 3-4 hours. Easily.
I never feel rushed, or like I had to. I consciously create what I desire, rooted in nourishment, becoming the best version of myself.

The Sovereign Shift: What Happens When You Prioritize You
As I prioritized this radical amount of self care, it didn’t diminish my success – it amplified it. It created more space, more flow throughout my day. My awareness sharpened. Decisions became clearer, more intentional. Business became easier, my mood lighter, more opportunities showed up.
My intuition sharpened; I knew who to reach out to and when. My creativity soared, creating content became easier. My mind was clearer, and I was more peaceful in the execution of tasks. I knew with clarity what to say yes to, and what to say no to.
I went from grumpy mommy to loving presence, from scattered entrepreneur to magnetic leader.
This was the magic. Through this extended self care, I was expressing the best version of myself. I was choosing who I wanted to be, creating what I wanted. Sovereignty lives in the way we choose to fill our time.

The Starting Point: Just 5 Minutes
So where do you begin?
Start small.
Don’t jump into creating 4 hours of self care immediately. Not only can that be overwhelming, your success rate will drastically drop.
1. Begin with one nourishing activity – do it for 5 minutes each day. Choose anything you want, something you enjoy – dancing, walking, savoring your coffee. Do that every day for 5 minutes until it feels natural, easy to do within your day. The key isn’t time, it’s consistency.
2. Once that feels natural, either extend the time slightly or add another pocket of self care elsewhere in your day for 5 minutes. Do that consistently until it feels easy.
3. Then keep building, adding one nourishing piece at a time, until each feels effortless.
Over time, you’ll naturally start craving more, effortlessly expanding your self care. Until one day, you’ll tally them up and shock your friend by telling them you do 3-4 hours of self care a day! Not from obligation, but from embodiment.
