My challenge for you today is to reframe your perspective on the word "balance."
Always striving for balance is exhausting and quite frankly, it's hard! I'd rather look at my days and months and be proud of how I'm managing my time and energy instead of always trying to find balance.
I'm going to share some things that have come up in conversations I've had recently. Ultimately it's important to recognize that there will be seasons where you slow down and seasons where you put the pedal to the floor and go full force. Each of these seasons serves a purpose.
1. Don't let your imagination be bigger than your calendar - aka, stop saying yes to EVERYTHING. Use your calendar and plug things into your week so you can see where there is actual space to just be. The goal isn't to be balanced, but rather to see where your time is being spent. If I asked you right now "do you know where your time is going?" could you say yes?
2. Certain seasons will require different energy. You weren't meant to operate at the same energy level all the time. The key to this is being self-aware.
Is it actually balance you're trying to achieve or are you trying to achieve a life that feels aligned? My hope for you is that you are working towards feeling aligned and this means making sure that you leave time for the most important person in your life... YOU!
I hope this <sassy> episode hit home for you - it was a reminder for me too! I'd love to connect with you over on the gram @michaela_robertson_ and hear how you are making time for YOU!
