Sometimes I put aside the typical career advice and just talk human to human. This week is one of those times.

When the world feels overwhelming and it's hard to find hope, I want to share three simple practices that help me—and can help you—navigate the heaviness. These aren't work strategies. They're life strategies for when everything feels like too much.

What I'm sharing:

· Why limiting information intake protects your mental health and energy

· The power of approaching disagreements with genuine curiosity instead of defensiveness

· Small acts of goodness that create ripple effects in your daily life

· How to reconnect with the humans right in front of you

"Our nervous systems were not designed to have 24/7 constant multi-channel pieces of information coming at us all day, every day."

This episode is shorter than usual because sometimes less is more. Sometimes we need to turn off the noise, go outside, put our feet on the ground, and remember that goodness creates more goodness.

You are amazing exactly as you are. You are 100% valuable simply because you are human.
