Here\\u2019s what everyone gets wrong about work/life balance.\\xa0
\\xa0
You run around trying to change everything outside of you in order to try to gain a little \\u201cbalance\\u201d.\\xa0
If I worked less hours\\u2026
If I had more time at home with my kids\\u2026.
If I could spend some time resting...then I\\u2019d feel balanced.\\xa0
\\xa0
But what happens as soon as you try to do those things?
\\xa0
Your brain ruins it.
\\xa0
You\'re at home with the kids and you\\u2019re constantly anxious about how much work you still have to finish.
\\xa0
You\\u2019re laying down to rest and you\\u2019re berating yourself for not getting up to run all of your errands.\\xa0
\\xa0
You\\u2019re trying to focus on your work deadline and you\\u2019re feeling guilty about missing your son\\u2019s soccer practice.\\xa0
\\xa0
It\\u2019s no wonder you\\u2019re exhausted all of the time.\\xa0
\\xa0
You cannot have balance until you learn that your worth is not attached to your productivity.
\\xa0
You cannot have balance until you learn that you deserve rest even when you have a full to-do list.
\\xa0
You cannot have balance until you learn that you\\u2019ll never be perfect and it\\u2019s ok to stop trying.\\xa0
\\xa0
Until you can manage your brain to drop all the guilt and shame, there is no magic formula that will create balance for you because you\\u2019ll constantly be telling yourself you\\u2019re doing it wrong.
\\xa0
This week on the podcast, I dive into how you can finally start working towards having some real balance in your life.\\xa0
