Finding Balance In Unexpected Free Time: Ditching The All Or Nothing Mindset


Listen Later

Sometimes life throws unexpected changes our way, and how we respond can make all the difference. In this quick episode, I share how I turned a canceled trip into an opportunity to find balance between self-care and business. In the past I’ve fallen into this "all or nothing" trap where I put too much pressure on myself and my time, it always leaves you disappointed.

In this episode I am walking you through how I’ve pivoted to balance in unexpected free time and realistic expectations that energize, not drain.

Topics Covered:

  • How I shifted my mindset around canceled plans.
  • Avoiding the "all or nothing" mentality when free time opens up.
  • Choosing one task each day for self-care, work, and family.
  • Setting realistic, energizing expectations for yourself and your team.
  • The importance of feeling good about what you accomplish.

Next time you have unexpected free time, give this balance approach a try!
