Episode 31: In this episode, we’re talking about tapas — a Sanskrit word often translated as “discipline,” but with layers that go far beyond hustle and hard work. Tapas is the inner fire that fuels transformation, but it’s also the wisdom to know when to pause and reset.
Coming back from a soul-nourishing trip to Nantucket, I’m sharing what this ancient concept really means, how to practice consistent effort without spiraling into burnout, and why true discipline also requires balance, boundaries, and moderation.
Inside, you’ll hear:
🔥 The roots of tapas in yoga philosophy and its connection to heat, fire, and discipline
🌿 The balance of discipline in moderation (brahmacharya)
🧘♀️ Why slowing down is sometimes the most productive move you can make
📖 What my own burnout revealed — and how I’m resetting boundaries this season
