Episode 29: Stuck in ‘if/when/just get through’ mode?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Stuck in ‘if/when/just get through’ mode?
You work hard. You’re a nice person. Why is your life so hard?
You’re fed up with feeling increasingly tired, finding it harder to ‘just get through’
This is not the life you intended to live.
Sometimes you dream of running away and sitting quietly by the beach, or living in a camper van. But you know you’d still come back because there are things about your life that you love.
And anyway you don’t have the energy to make huge changes.
You’re too overwhelmed to know what to try anyway. You don’t really know what would work.
This episode is for you.
