You’ve been sold a lie and it’s called “work-life balance.” In this episode, I’m breaking down why chasing balance is wrecking your sleep, wrecking your nervous system and keeping you stuck in a cycle of guilt and burnout.

If you’re constantly trying to give 100% to everything your job, your family, your partner, your inbox and the laundry but still feel like you’re failing, this one’s for you. I’ll share why balance is a BS performance metric, what your body actually needs instead, and how to start living in work-life harmony that doesn’t require sacrificing your health or sanity.

We’re talking weekly grooves, energy check-ins, and realistic expectations, no toxic positivity, no hustle hacks, just honest tools for building a life that works with you, not against you.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about being able to carry your groceries, chase your dog, and get off the damn floor without help. Let’s get into it.

We also cover days 6 and 7 of the 7-Day Stress Reset Checklist.

If you’ve done all the right things…lit the candle, booked the massage, maybe even meditated, BUT still feel wired, tired and overwhelmed, here’s the honest truth...most de-stressing tools don't work.
