53. How we're reclaiming our summer with the right intentions

This isn’t a summer bucket list. It’s a blueprint for how we want to feel.
In this Friday Coffee Chat, we’re sitting down to share the six intentions shaping our summer, not based on what we should do, but what we actually need. If you're feeling burnt out from a busy year or just craving a more grounded rhythm, this one’s for you.
We talk about:
- How to stop future-tripping and stay present
- Why filtering information is a self-care move
- Protecting your energy like it’s your job
- Reclaiming play as a priority, not a luxury
- Letting go of rigid routines to make space for spontaneity
- Choosing the joy of missing out over performative “yeses”
Think of this episode as a mindset reset: less hustle, more intention.
We’re not doing summer like everyone else. We’re doing it our way.
📩 Share it with a friend who needs a "more me, less noise" summer, too.
If your work is taking over your life and you struggle to unplug in the evening or even the weekend, we'd love to help you create a work-life balance that works for you!
Love,
Tina & Eleni
