Self Love Isn’t Selfish - How to Prioritize Yourself as a Woman

If you’re a woman who constantly pours into everyone else but leaves yourself last, this conversation is your reminder that prioritizing yourself is not neglect, it’s necessary, healing, and life-changing.

In this women’s podcast episode, Dr. Kim R. Grimes sits down with relationship and marriage coach Stella Omutoni to discuss why women struggle with guilt, self-worth, and prioritizing their emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being, and how you can finally put yourself first without feeling guilty.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever asked:
How do I prioritize myself as a woman?
How do I put myself first without feeling guilty?
How do I love myself and rebuild my worth?
How do I practice self love daily?
How do I stop feeling selfish for choosing myself?

Stella’s raw vulnerability, cultural wisdom, and lived experience, from childhood struggles to a near-death medical event, reveal the deeper meaning of self love: healing yourself so you can love others from overflow instead of exhaustion.
