The last few months have been full — in all the ways.Big ideas, big responsibilities, big growth… and, if I’m being honest, a little burnout too.In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what the end of 2025 really looked like for me: the pace, the pressure, the lessons, and the moments that forced me to pause and ask, “Is this sustainable?”

I’m sharing how I’m setting clearer boundaries, redefining what “showing up” looks like for me, and why building better in 2026 means doing things differently — even when it’s uncomfortable.

You’ll also hear about the evolution of Joyful Commons, including why we refreshed our membership tiers for 2026 to better support real life, real families, and realistic rhythms of work and care.If you’re a parent, business owner, or anyone feeling stretched thin but still deeply committed to what you’re building — this one’s for you.Less hustle. More intention. And a whole lot more joy.
