Question 1

If you examined yourself with the same thoroughness you apply to the people or projects you care most about, what would the intake note say? What are you presenting with that you have not yet formally acknowledged?

Question 2

Where in your work or caregiving life have you confused self-erasure with service? What is the specific behavior, and what has it been costing the people who receive your care?

Question 3

What does your heart need right now that has nothing to do with productivity? Name it plainly.

Question 4

What would it mean to apply your professional standard of care to yourself, specifically, today?

Question 5

When you are genuinely caring for yourself, not performing self-care but actually resting, being with someone you love, doing something that has no output, what does your work look like the next day?
