Remember to prioritise you in the chaos.
Black Friday week has a way of pulling you in every direction. The notifications, the noise, the endless lists. It’s easy to get swept up in all the things you “should” be doing.
But here’s the truth most of us forget: you matter in all of this too.
This isn’t a reminder to slow down your whole life, or to magically find extra hours you don’t have. It’s simply an invitation to claim one small moment for yourself in the middle of the busyness. The kind of moment that helps you feel like you again.
Maybe that looks like stepping outside for a quiet minute before the day takes off.
Maybe it’s making your coffee without multitasking. Maybe it’s choosing one thing to care about today or maybe it’s giving yourself permission to close a tab, say no, or pick the easier option.

Self-care isn't always easy to fit in but sometimes it’s just finding yourself mini moments for you, especially when life gets busy.
So as the world speeds up this week, let yourself slow down where you can. Make space for the version of you that needs a breath. And remember that it’s okay to step out of the rush and do things in a way that feels gentler, steadier, and more you.
Because amid the chaos, you deserve a moment too.
