816. How To Protect Your Peace While Still Having a Big Life
In this episode, K+L sit down with Victoria Garrick Browne, 2024 Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree and host of Real Pod for a raw conversation on anxiety, ambition, and being human on the internet. They explore what it really looks like to honor your mental health while building a meaningful career.
Ahead, Victoria opens up about developing emotional resilience, delegating without guilt, and creating boundaries that actually support her nervous system. The girls share friendship lessons, the discomfort of growth, and why rest is not a reward—it’s a relationship we must cultivate.
If you’ve been craving more spaciousness, more softness, or simply less pressure to “handle it all,” this episode will land. You’ll walk away with practices to regulate your anxiety, reconnect to your intuition, and redefine success on your own terms. Take a deep breath—let’s slow down together.
We also talk about:
The real impact of anticipatory anxiety + how to find peace in the present moment
Why high-achieving women struggle with delegation—and how to finally let go
Recognizing when “doing your best” is good enough versus chasing perfection
Reframing busyness + embracing spaciousness as a radical act of self-care
Lessons learned from athlete mentality: urgency, drive, and when to slow down
Navigating changing friendships + the bittersweet reality of growing up
Setting boundaries with family, friends, and even your phone for real mental wellness
Nostalgia, life transitions, and handling the heartbreak (and beauty) of getting older
The secret to filling your own cup without feeling selfish or losing connection
