Have you ever caught yourself saying, âWhen things slow downâŠâ or âAfter this season, itâll be less busyâŠâ? Youâre not aloneâIâve said it too. But hereâs the hard truth: itâs not just the holidays, soccer season, or back-to-school time that feels overwhelming. The busyness never stops unless we make intentional changes.
In this episode, weâre having a heart-to-heart about the myth of âless busy seasons.â Iâll share why this mindset keeps us stuck, how weâre conditioned to wear busyness like a badge of honor, and the real reason we feel so stretched in every stage of life.
Weâll also dive into:
Why it feels like thereâs always something keeping us busy.The importance of identifying where your time is actually going.How to be the gatekeeper of your familyâs scheduleâand say no with grace.A challenge to rethink how you answer, âHow are you?âIf youâve been waiting for the busy to end on its own, let this episode be the wake-up call (and permission) you need to take back control of your time and energy.
