How I Avoid Burnout: Selfish Sundays | E90 Anastasia Barbuzzi

Have you felt like you’ve been burning the candle at both ends? Are you trying to do too many things and feeling burnout?

Maybe you need a Selfish Sunday.

Cara Hays initially introduced me to this concept of Selfish Sundays. It’s pretty simple - she spends Sunday doing things for herself and she doesn’t judge herself for it. She might meal prep, do laundry, or just binge watch a TV show. Whatever she needs from herself on Sundays is what she does.

I loved the idea so much that I stole it for myself, and it has really helped me with burnout. I was recently on my friend Anastasia Barbuzzi’s podcast, $HMoney Radio, talking about my Selfish Sundays. I wanted to share this with you in case you were looking for some inspiration and ideas on how you could overcome burnout.

Key Takeaway:

  • How Selfish Sunday’s might help you avoid burnout
