99. What Trade-offs Are You Willing to Make to “Have It All”?

“You can have it all, but not all at the same time.” We’ve all heard that there are trade-offs we have to make to live our definition of “having it all” but it’s hard to sacrifice your sleep, time with loved ones, lucrative opportunities, and other things you want…even if it’s helping you achieve your goals. In this week’s episode, we chat about: - choosing your choice and aligning our trade-offs to our values - feeling guilty about setting boundaries or saying no - trying not to live in the past - & so much more!

98. Is Making Your Job Part of Your Identity Always a Bad Thing?

We all know how toxic it can be when too much of your life and identity are tied to your job or the work you do. But is it always a bad thing to make work a part of your identity? Is there a healthy way to make work part of who you are without becoming a workaholic or burning out? This week, we discuss: - treating your job or career like a relationship - finding work that aligns with your purpose/passion or discovering your purpose through work - when your income traps you in a certain career or work - getting friends outside of your industry - whether making your life about work only for artists, entrepreneurs, and athletes - & so much more!
