THE NURTURER

You inherently look for the good in everyone.

You have a seemingly unlimited store of compassion and empathy.

However, when your self-worth is derived from being there for others, you can find

yourself people-pleasing and not expressing your true desires or wants.

Other people’s needs take precedence over your own. An experience from your childhood created the imprint that being there for others was how you received attention. Saying “no” can be extremely difficult for you as you fear it will disappoint others.

When you are out-of-balance, you can do everything for everyone, leaving

you depleted and exhausted. This can set you up for sugar cravings and comfort eating, leading to

insulin resistance and estrogen dominance.

Your challenge is to learn how to say “no” without feeling guilty or selfish.
