It was really eye-opening to see what I was truly prioritizing and how I was progressing in my self-care journey.

Throughout this period, I've heightened my commitment to self-care by carving out daily moments for activities that bring me joy, be it reading, walking, enjoying music, or taking a nap. Strategic time management has been crucial, ensuring I have the necessary space for personal pursuits.

1. During this experience, I was able to seek out my true potential and truly expand on it. I was also able to learn self love vocabulary that helped me increase my mental state. It also taught me the importance of positivity in general as it's essential in self confidence. Self confidence was another essential that I learned throughout my WLG experience, having self confidence is crucial when making decisions.


2. The self-care check-ins definitely help me as I was able to set down goals. Every time I did the check-in, I made sure to create new goals for myself to reach next week. It also helped me realize how much I lacked self-care, I was able to…
