What if calm doesn’t live on the far side of your to-do list? 

I share hard-won lessons from coaching two high performers on the edge of overwhelm and a deceptively simple practice that helped me respond instead of react at the dinner table.

From there, we take a seat at the theatre—steep rows, exposed sightlines, and a powerful performance from a friend who becomes his character night after night. That backstage glimpse opens a wider question: what’s the real cost of the roles we play at work and at home? We unpack masks as tools that protect and perform, and how they turn into heavy armour when we forget to take them off.  

Press play, try the questions at the end, and let me know: where did you notice peace today? If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review—it helps others find us and keeps the conversation going.

Help us improve! I'd love to get your feedback...
