Life is a juggling act, but not all balls are created equal. Some are glass—they’ll shatter if dropped—while others are plastic and can bounce back. This conversation dives into how to tell the difference and manage life’s endless to-do list without burning out.

Key takeaways:

• Prioritize wisely—not everything is urgent.
• Glass vs. plastic balls—some tasks (or relationships) need immediate attention, others can wait.
• Flexibility is key—life stages change what matters most.
• Small wins matter—they boost motivation and productivity.
• Balance is an ongoing challenge—you can’t be everything to everyone.
• Saying no is okay—self-care isn’t selfish.
• Kids need independence—they can’t rely on you for everything.
• Communication is crucial—let people know what you need.
• Self-compassion is a must—not everything goes as planned, and that’s okay.
• Seeking support is strength, not weakness.

At the end of the day, the goal isn’t to do it all—it’s to do what truly matters.
