DESIGN INTERVENTION
Don’t get lost in taking care or your clients that you forget to take care of yourself. Healthy boundaries and carving out time for yourself will make you more productive. Schedule blocks of time to reflect, meditate, exercise, draw, do whatever you need to do to unwind. Put it on your calendar and stick to it.
