Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I'm delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project, and the creator of the women's revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.

This episode is another Simplicity Bite reminding you that you don’t need to make life difficult by always prioritizing your work ahead of other things in your life. I have been going through a change in mindset over the past number of years where I know to make time for myself and my family. It’s easy to throw your entire life into your work, but that is how you reach burnout faster. 

Life is already complex enough, why make things difficult for you in your business and will spill over in your personal life. 

If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to [email protected] or via Instagram at @jennpike and I'll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts, and advice. 

Here are the main topics of today’s episode:

• My week
• Where does being overwhelmed come from?
• What I realized while taking a walk every day
• Being too hard on yourself
• Behind the scenes
• We continue to evolve and grow
• There is no due date

Quotes -

• “We always get to choose whether or not we are going to show up that way to whether or not we are going to choose to do the hard thing. And what if it actually didn't have to be hard?”

• “It's when you begin to allow other people's lives, what other people are doing, how they are showing up their successes, the things they have going on and doing that is I think what perpetuates this feeling of, I need to do more and then yes, it's hard, but I can do hard things.”

• “The work doesn't come in what you have to do, the work comes in what you have to undo, what you have to unlearn. 

• “The remedy is to do less.”

• “I allow myself to contract what needs to be contracted so that there's more room for other things to expand into bloom and grow.”
