Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How many times have you told yourself you should do something today? This week? In the last hour?
Shoulds add heavily to overwhelm — and most of us are drowning in them without even noticing. This episode brings awareness to just how much you're shoulding yourself, and why that awareness alone is extraordinarily powerful and freeing.
- why shoulds add so heavily to your overwhelm
- how to notice your shoulds without dropping your integrity or letting people down
- what happens when you bring your shoulds into your body and actually feel them
- the difference between genuine obligations and inherited ones
- why awareness of your shoulds is the first step to freedom from them
For anyone who suspects they're living more by obligation than by choice — and is ready to find out.
This podcast was created to help big-hearted, driven professionals break free from overwhelm and experience more clarity, ease and joy.
