Ep. 4 - Balance Is Not A Buzzword
EPISODE 4: Balance Is Not A Buzzword
Title: Balance Is Not A Buzzword (Shed & Shine Ep. 4)
Length: ~14 minutes
Description:
We’ve all been told to “just balance it all” — as if balance is something you can hack, automate, or download like an app. In this episode, I’m reimagining what balance actually means: not a buzzword, not a one-size-fits-all equation, but an intuitive practice rooted in energy, rhythm, and soul.
Together, we’ll explore how overwork culture keeps us stuck in burnout, why women often carry a heavier “second shift,” and how practices like job crafting, cycle syncing, and sacred rest can help us reclaim our power. I’ll also share my own story of overscheduling and what it took to find balance that actually nourishes me.
Because balance isn’t about doing it all — it’s about subtracting what doesn’t serve you, and honoring your natural flow.
What You'll Learn:
Reflection Prompt:
What’s one thing I can let go of — literally say no to?
And what’s one nourishing thing I can block time for?
