I have decided to take a break from podcasting. After much reflection, I can see that my mind is exhausted from all of the content creation I do on a weekly basis. I write to emails/blogs. I create video clips for courses. I create slide decks for presentations. I create contact for my Facebook Group and try to engage with them. And I create this podcast, which includes recording an episode, getting it transcribed, writing shownotes, video-editing, social media creations, etc.

And I’ve decided it’s time to simply parts of my business and all of the “creating” I do in a week. This is not an easy decision because I feel like I’m letting all of you down. But for now it feels like the one that will most serve me when I ask myself, “How do I want to feel in my life.”

What’s in the episode: 

• How our inner critical fights back when we make decisions that serve our mental health
• Why rest is a right and not a reward
• How to make hard decisions and stop dealing with all the “shoulds”
• How to dial back while also dialing in to your inner self.

“It’s time to replace the “shoulds” in our lives and ask ourselves, “How do I really want to feel in my life?”
