When was the last time you put yourself first - and not just for an hour or two, but truly prioritized yourself and what is important to you? I suspect your response to that question evoked a bit of discomfort; maybe even guilt. Moms often put the needs of others above their own, "serving" everyone else around them. Yet when done too often over time, constantly serving the needs of others can result in high levels of stress, burnout, and resentment.

How do you cut through all the chaos, identify what is important, and learn to let go of things that aren't serving you well? In Moms Eat First: 5 Principles to Prioritize Yourself and Create the Change You Crave, author Kathy Sullivan explores five key principles to create and sustain change and shares potential solutions to overcoming barriers.
