This isn’t about pretending life is perfect. It’s about learning how to create moments of magic, even in the middle of the mess.

If we’re not intentional about creating joy in our everyday lives, burnout isn’t just possible... it’s inevitable. Because here’s the truth: hustle without harmony leads to resentment, exhaustion, and questioning why you even started in the first place.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something we don’t talk about enough: the power of romanticizing your own life. Not as some indulgent luxury reserved for vacations or weekends, but as an absolutely essential strategy for sustaining your energy, your creativity, and your capacity to lead.
