🔥 Is ambition a gift—or a dangerous trap?

We live in a culture that either glorifies the grind or demonizes ambition. But the truth is, ambition itself isn’t the problem—it’s what’s driving it.

In this episode, Adrian, Bri, and Christie dive into:
✅ How to differentiate healthy ambition from destructive ambition
✅ The danger of chasing opportunity just because you can
✅ Why we mistake movement for momentum (and how to avoid it)
✅ The balance of sprinting vs. recovering—and why most people get it wrong
✅ How burnout sneaks up when you take on responsibilities that aren’t yours

⚡ Reflection Questions:

  • Are you chasing opportunities for impact or validation?

  • What’s driving your ambition—purpose or insecurity?

  • Are you in a sprint or a season of recovery, and are you honoring it?
