🔥 Is ambition a gift—or a dangerous trap?

We live in a culture that either glorifies the grind or demonizes ambition. But the truth is, ambition itself isn’t the problem—it’s what’s driving it.

In this episode, Adrian, Bri, and Christie dive into: ✅ How to differentiate healthy ambition from destructive ambition ✅ The danger of chasing opportunity just because you can ✅ Why we mistake movement for momentum (and how to avoid it) ✅ The balance of sprinting vs. recovering—and why most people get it wrong ✅ How burnout sneaks up when you take on responsibilities that aren’t yours

⚡ Reflection Questions:

• Are you chasing opportunities for impact or validation?

• What’s driving your ambition—purpose or insecurity?

• Are you in a sprint or a season of recovery, and are you honoring it?
