In today’s episode, I want to talk about what it looks like ‘beyond the badge’, and embracing seasons in a world obsessed with busy. For me, I wore ‘busy’ like a badge of honor. I wanted to achieve every milestone, achievement, and check allll the boxes. Busy became my default answer, because when we’re busy, that means we’re successful..right?

Over the last couple of years, I’ve really leaned into the concept of ‘wintering’. While we seem to be adding more and more to our calendar, Nature is instead telling us to be still, turn inward, and do less. Whether we’re experiencing pregnancy, trying to navigate postpartum, transitioning our career, or some other kind of major life change, it’s VITAL that we slow down, and honor the season we’re in.

I want to encourage you to honor your natural energy, and be present with what’s right in front of you. When you’re able to know, love, and trust yourself just as you are, you’ll be able to come home to yourself, and truly thrive, regardless of the season you’re in.

In this episode, I cover:

• Turning to the ‘cyclical’ nature of the world and honoring the season you’re in
• My story of wearing ‘busy’ like a badge of honor + how I’ve actively worked to change that over time
• My journey through burnout + the unexpected blessings this led to
• Choosing to truly slow down during life’s seasons + learning the art of ‘simplify to amplify’
• Finding alignment in the life you want to create + focusing on being present, and coming home to yourself
