Who Takes Care of Me?

Posted: August 20, 2025

Life is busy. Here in Trinidad and Tobago, we are familiar with the rhythm of the hustle and bustle, the demands of work, family, and community. We spend our days pouring our energy outwards into our jobs, our partners, our children, our homes. It’s a cycle of giving that can be beautiful and fulfilling.

But I want you to pause for a moment. Right now, wherever you are, take a deep breath and ask yourself a question. A really, truly honest question.

"Who takes care of me?"

Think about it for a second. Who is genuinely in charge of your well-being?

Your first thought might be your husband or your wife. They are your life partner, your biggest supporter. They love you, they worry about you, and they do so much to make your life better. But are they responsible for the food you choose to eat? Can they make you get a good night's sleep? Can they do the exercises for you? They have their own stresses, their own burdens, their own cup to keep full.

Perhaps you thought of your parents. For years, they did everything for you. They nurtured you, guided you, and took care of you when you were sick. But that season has passed. Their love is a constant, but the day-to-day responsibility for your health is now yours.

And it’s certainly not your children. They are your responsibility, the very people you pour so much of yourself into every single day.

We have people around us who care deeply, but it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking someone else is in charge of our well-being.

The Most Dependable Person You Know

Now, let’s ask a second question.

Who is the single most dependable person you can count on, day in and day out, to manage your health?

Who feels that deep, bone-weary exhaustion when you wake up in the morning? Who knows that your body is aching for movement and fresh air? Who hears that quiet inner voice that whispers, "I'm stressed," "I'm unhappy," or "I need a change"?

The answer is, and always will be, YOU.

This isn’t meant to feel overwhelming. Instead, it’s about feeling empowered. Realizing you’re in charge of your own health can be freeing. Only you can make choices like drinking water, moving your body, or enjoying a healthy and balanced meal. That control is yours. Taking care of your health is a true act of self-respect and self-love.

You're In Charge, But You Don't Have To Do It Alone

Realizing you have this power is just the beginning. The next step is figuring out how to use it. Many of us get stuck here. We know we should make changes, but it’s hard with so much advice out there, not enough time, and low motivation.

And this is where I come in.

Being in charge doesn’t mean you have to be an expert in nutrition, fitness, and habit formation. It doesn’t mean you have to figure it all out by yourself. It simply means you are the one who decides to seek guidance and support.

My Lifelong Wellness Program is designed for exactly this moment, the moment you decide to take the driver's seat. It's not a quick fix or a punishing diet. It is a supportive, guided journey to help you build the skills, habits, and mindset you need to become the best possible caretaker for yourself.
