Caregiving is hard.
It stretches you emotionally, spiritually, physically — and sometimes, it empties you completely.
But there’s a moment, often after the whirlwind ends, when you realize you’ve forgotten how to care for yourself.
You realize your needs were placed at the bottom of the list for far too long.
Self-giving is not indulgence.
It’s recovery.
It’s permission.
It’s rebuilding a life around nourishment instead of depletion.
Caregivers are strong.
But self-givers?
They are whole.
And you deserve wholeness.
