Value Yourself

I love my job. I love doing the baby ultrasounds. I am genuinely happy for you and your family, and it shows- you can hear the excitement in my voice when we look at your baby for the first time! I am living my dream life, and I couldn't be happier.

And you know what’s even better? The new friends I make. I have made some truly amazing friendships along the way. It’s wonderful to connect with families as I show them their baby. The feeling when I receive messages with photos of the new baby after they are born is priceless. Some families have even adopted me as an honorary Auntie. Some moms have become close friends. Some families have partnered with me on baby business ventures.

It’s been incredible to build my business while also building meaningful relationships. These families value my services, and more importantly, they value me.

Hear that part again- they value me.

If you are in a situation where you do not feel valued, it is essential to prioritize self care and recognize your worth. Do not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and find what you are looking for. Find the right situation for yourself where you feel respected and appreciated. Broaden your horizons and seek opportunities where your contributions matter.

Do not stay in a position where you feel underappreciated or taken advantage of. There is a whole world of opportunities waiting for you. Start looking around for your next best life. It is never too late to make a change and love your job while embracing your full potential.

Valuing yourself is not selfish- it is necessary. Practice self care, acknowledge your worth, and seek the life and work environment that makes you feel appreciated every day.

The best things in life are just on the other side of fear. Be brave, little toaster. You can do this.
