Ep 16 - Choosing Yourself Isn’t Selfish

In this episode, we’re unpacking a truth most people don’t learn until they hit burnout:when you put yourself first, you become a better version of yourself for everyone else.We talk about why prioritising your needs feels uncomfortable, why saying yes has become automatic for so many of us, and how constantly putting yourself last slowly pulls you away from who you are.From emotional regulation and overwhelm, to boundaries, social media, slowing down, and the stories we tell ourselves — this conversation is about giving yourself permission to refill your cup so you can actually show up fully for the people who matter.We explore:– Why choosing yourself makes your energy and generosity sustainable– How your body knows you’re overwhelmed before your mind does– The paradox of control and letting life unfold– Practical tools from ACT + CBT that help you step out of spirals– Why “slowing down” isn’t laziness — it’s maintenanceQuote of the episode:“You can’t give people the best of you if you keep giving yourself what’s left of you.”If this one resonates, share it with someone who always puts themselves last.It might be the reminder they need today.🎙 Follow us on Instagram:Beyond The Noise – @thebeyondthenoisepodcastTim – @timmckernLuke – @l_u_k_e_o_w_e_n_s
