Hustle culture is dead. Did our drive go away? Or did it morph into something new?
Today, I want to talk about ambition. Right now, I’m in the middle of my own reckoning with it. If you’re feeling the same way, then this episode is for you. We’re beginning to dismantle what ambition means and how it shows up. It’s not us that’s the problem but the environment. I don’t want to feel like I have to contort, trim, or lessen who I am to fit an idea the world presents to me. So I’m opting out. Demolishing ideas and beliefs to rebuild one brick at a time. My question becomes….does ambition have a place in my life if it’s not the hustle and grind way? Let’s talk about this.
Why I almost didn’t have kids and why I'm glad I did
If you're unsure about wanting children and how to make that decision, this episode is for you. As a driven and creative woman, I was frightened by the idea of motherhood. I wondered if it meant losing my sense of self. Or postponing my goals until my children were grown. I worried about how society, and even my husband, would perceive me. In this episode, I'll share what almost made me reject the idea of having children, how I eventually realized I wanted them, and the most surprising parts of motherhood.
