EP 135: The intensity paradox: Why “balance” is keeping you stuck, and what to strive for instead

Today, I want to talk about something that might trigger some of you — and that’s a good thing! We’ve all been sold this dream of ‘work-life balance’, right? The idea that if we just figure out a schedule, if we just time-block our days right, we’ll be happy and fulfilled. But here’s the truth: Nobody actually wants a work-life balance.

In this solo ep, we’re diving deep into the myth of ‘balance’, thoughts that have been on my mind lately, balance vs contrast and what you should be striving for, why intensity works best for our minds, why the real danger isn’t burnout + what it really is, and so much more!

So babe, grab your cacao or matcha and a journal, because you’re going to want to do some serious reflections after this!
