Episode 9: Balancing Work and Social Life – How We Try (and Sometimes Fail) to Do It All

Katie Barbato and Dominique Whelan Season 1 Episode 9

In this episode, we talk about what “balance” really means when you live in a city that never stops moving. From juggling work, social life, and side hustles to setting boundaries in a culture that glorifies the grind, we get real about burnout, guilt, and learning to slow down — even when the world around you won’t. This one’s for anyone trying to find calm in the chaos of Brooklyn life.

If you felt seen by anything in this episode, send us some love or your own story. This space is about real connection — and we want to hear your voice too 🤍
