The Permission Slip

You might be asking yourself: "Why the f*ck is balance so hard!?"

And if you're like most of us, you're tired of feeling like you're failing at it. In this episode, we're diving deep into why traditional balance is BS and what to do instead.

We break down an approach called "counterbalancing" and walk through an exercise called The Permission Slip that will shift how you navigate this tension—while showing you why chasing perfect balance might be what's holding you back in the first place.

Whether you're trapped in rigid fitness routines or living for the weekend but feeling unfulfilled, this episode offers a practical framework for finding your sweet spot.

Stop trying to balance it all. Start moving the needle where it matters most.
