Unapologetically Wild with Mary Giordano

26: Why Balance Is Bullsh*t : And What to Chase Instead


Listen Later

You’ve been told your whole life the secret is balance.

Work-life balance. Balanced schedule. Balanced everything.

But if balance really worked… why are so many women still exhausted, guilty, and feeling like no matter how much they do, it’s never enough?

Here’s the truth: balance doesn’t give you peace, it gives you pressure. And the harder you chase it, the more fractured you feel.

In this episode of Unapologetically Wild, I’m breaking down:

  • Why balance is bullsh*t and why it sets you up to fail

  • The hidden emotional cost of chasing balance: guilt, shame, and living small

  • What you can chase instead if you want actual freedom and peace

  • Three simple questions that will shift you out of guilt and into something better

    If you’ve ever gone to bed thinking, “I did so much today, but it still wasn’t enough,” this episode is for you.
