In this episode of The Pivot to Balance Podcast, we’re tackling a common mindset trap—“I just want my life to change.” We’ve all been there, stuck in that loop of waiting for something external to shift. But here’s the thing: real, lasting change doesn’t come from wishing—it comes from action.

You’ll hear why this passive mindset can actually hold you back, backed by the latest neuroscience on how your brain responds to action vs. inaction. I’ll dive into the psychological and neurological reasons why waiting for life to change might be keeping you stuck, and how taking control—no matter how small the steps—can rewire your brain for success.

Spoiler: no woo-woo magic here, just science and actionable insights!

Join me as I share practical tips for moving from wishful thinking to active change, with evidence-backed strategies that will help you take control of your life today. Tune in and let’s shift the narrative from “I want change” to “I’m creating change.

In this episode of The Pivot to Balance Podcast, we dive deep into the concept of Founder Mode—a mindset that’s all about being fully hands-on, taking charge, and pushing forward with passion. But here’s the twist: this isn’t just for startup founders. I’m not running a business or managing a company; I’m in this space to learn, grow, and connect through my projects, and Founder Mode has become part of that journey.

You’ll hear about the highs and lows of this intense focus, why it can be so addictive, and how I’ve learned to balance it with my personal life. Plus, we get into the science behind why our brains crave the constant “go-mode,” thanks to those dopamine hits from achieving our goals. But did you know that real creativity and problem-solving often come when we let our minds rest?

Join me as I share practical tips on maintaining momentum without burning out, the importance of setting boundaries, and why taking time off is not just a luxury—it’s a necessity. Whether you’re building something from scratch or just juggling a few passion projects, this episode will give you insights on how to thrive in Founder Mode without losing your balance.

Tune in, and let’s find the sweet spot between ambition and self-care!

In this episode, we're diving into a thought-provoking conversation about the goals we chase and why we’re chasing them. We often believe that achieving certain milestones will bring us success, recognition, or happiness, but is that truly the case? Are we running toward what we really want or what society tells us we should want? Together, we’ll explore the fleeting nature of fame and success, why external validation doesn’t lead to fulfillment, and how to stop sacrificing what truly matters to us.
