You work hard. You're a good person. Why is your life still this hard?
You're tired of just getting through. You dream sometimes of running away — a beach, a camper van, somewhere quiet. But you know you'd come back, because there are things about your life you love. You just can't seem to get to them.
You're not lazy. You're not broken. You're stuck. And this episode is for exactly that.
- why if/when/just get through mode is so hard to escape
- why being tired and overwhelmed makes it impossible to know what to try
- why huge changes aren't the answer — and what is
- gentle ways forward when you don't have the energy for big ones
- the life you intended to live is still available to you
For anyone who knows this isn't the life they meant to be live — and hasn't given up on the one they did.
This podcast was created to help big-hearted, driven professionals break free from overwhelm and experience more clarity, ease and joy.
