This episode is for anyone who's ever forced themselves to keep doing something that doesn't feel right just because it's what they're "supposed" to do.

Inspired by a recent backpacking trip, I'm sharing a moment of unexpected peace I experienced in the mountains and what it revealed about how we live, work, and choose what to tolerate. If you've been wondering why certain parts of your life feel heavy or misaligned, this is your nudge to pause, question, and realign.

You don't have to do more with a better attitude. You can do less of what never fit in the first place.

WHAT WE'LL COVER:

✔️ What your dread is trying to tell you (yes, even about your business or life path)

✔️ Why following someone else's "right way" might be keeping you stuck

✔️ The truth about playbooks and how to write your own

✔️ A question that can help you reimagine your way forward

✔️ How to trade pressure for peace (and still make progress)

 

JOURNALING PROMPT:

What's one part of your life that feels misaligned or heavy? What might shift if you gave yourself permission to stop doing it the "supposed to" way?

 

CHATGPT PROMPT:

"Act as a reflective clarity coach. I've been forcing myself to keep doing things that don't feel aligned because I believe I should. Here's what I'm currently wrestling with: [insert situation]. Help me explore what might be possible if I stopped following the 'supposed to' path and instead created a version of success that feels peaceful, energizing, and right for me. Then offer one shift I could experiment with this week."
