EPISODE SUMMARY

We all have seasons where we push ourselves too hard — where rest feels like laziness and gentleness feels like weakness. In this episode, we unpack why we push so hard, what gentle persistence actually looks like, and how to keep going without losing yourself in the process. Includes a guided breathwork practice and eight affirmations about pace, self-compassion, and trust.
