Bringing the focus on your wellness in the New Year.

| View in browser January 2022 - Vol. XI Dear Financial Feminists,  Happy New Year!   Is it just us or is this the most January of all Januarys? Layering the Omicron resurgence on top of holiday travel and stress, we are all in need of some serious self-care! It is no secret that the last two years have been emotionally and physically draining on everyone.   However, as demonstrated by the Great Resignation, women are bearing the brunt of the emotional, educational, and childcare burden in their homes and nationally. They are feeling invisible and exhausted. Well, we feel you and we see you! So what can you do to help strengthen your well-being and flip this script? First, don’t miss our Wellness webinar where we will be covering financial wellness going into 2022, which will also include physical and emotional wellness. A renowned breathwork leader will help you learn how to calm your nervous system with simple, conscious breathing.   Second, check out these articles that brought us some peace and reflection this month on how to set the tone of your day to combat “present bias” and procrastinate less. From learning the importance of intellectual humility to taking the time to realize how essential connections and relationships are to our physical health, we are taking comfort in learning to value rest over action. And while no one can deny the importance of valuing the present, don’t deny yourself the fun of looking at the crystal ball of predictions for 2022 while sipping our favorite dry January mocktail, and indulging in some healthy and delicious Super Bowl snacks!   Hang in there, you got this! Sunnier days are right around the corner. In solidarity, Amy & Sheila More On Wellness Make 2022 the year you procrastinate less.
