130. Stop Seeking 'Balance,' Create Inner Peace Instead (Here's How to Get It)
Ever feel like you're failing at either work OR motherhood... or dropping the ball at both? Like no matter how hard you try, you can never get the elusive "balance" thing right? đŸ’«
In this eye-opening episode, I'm challenging the traditional concept of "balance" and sharing why it's setting ambitious moms up for failure. As a single working mom myself, I don't have perfect balance—but I've discovered something FAR MORE valuable: inner peace that follows me wherever I go.
In this episode, I break down:
- Why traditional "balance" is a myth that's making you feel like you're constantly failing
- The harmful belief that balance means being 100% present for everyone all the time
- My personal journey to finding peace whether work, motherhood, or self-care takes priority
- A powerful visualization exercise to help you define what peace (not balance) looks like for YOU
- One simple action step you can implement TODAY to start feeling more peaceful immediately
The truth? Sometimes work demands more from you. Sometimes your family needs to be your priority. And sometimes (yes, really!) YOU need to come first. The magic happens when you can flow between these priorities with peace instead of guilt.
Key insights:
- Inner peace isn't about having everything perfectly balanced—it's about being fully present and at peace with wherever you are in the moment
- You don't need to quit your job, start a business, or make drastic life changes to find this peace and flexibility
- Small, intentional shifts can transform how you experience your existing life
Resources Mentioned:
- FREE Calm Mind Blueprint - 5 days of 2-minute journaling to take you from overwhelm to inner peace (includes access to my private podcast!)
- Apply for my limited-time 6-week intensive to create your personalized work-mom-life integration plan: https://www.samanthapenkoff.com/assessments/2148452751
I hope you feel a sense of relief letting "balance" off the hook and embracing inner peace instead. Subscribe to the podcast for more tips on enjoying your everyday life without sacrificing what matters most!
