Sara shares why self-care matters so much to her

In her new interview, Sara explained why prioritising self-care is so important, even if it’s just a few minutes a day. She said, “No matter how packed my schedule is, I make time to move — even if it’s just a 15-minute walk. I also carve out pockets of quiet to unwind and reflect. Those little acts of self-care keep me at my best.”

‘No shame in looking after yourself’

Sara, who has been open about her struggles with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal disorder that affects many women, asked people to prioritise their health and happiness, and not to be afraid to ask for help when needed. According to her, choosing yourself and your well-being takes courage, and it’s essential for navigating life’s challenges.

She said, “Health and happiness are everything. If you’re navigating PCOS or anything else, please ask for help from friends, family or professionals. There’s strength in speaking up, and no shame in looking after yourself. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is choose yourself.”
