226. Thinking About Work 24/7 Isn’t Passion — It’s Keeping You From Being Present
Episode 226
Tuesday, 3 March, 2026
You're at dinner and you're already mentally planning tomorrow's client call. You've been calling it passion. Dedication. But what if it's actually the thing standing between you and the life you keep saying you want?Last night I did a future self visualization that felt like a total flop. No income numbers, no business wins, no morning routine inspo. Just a calm, confident woman looking back at me. And honestly? It bummed me out at first.What came up after that is what this episode is really about. I'd been wearing constant work thoughts like a badge of honor, proof that I cared, proof that I was built for this. And the idea of not thinking about work felt like slipping.This one is raw, unscripted, and I'm sharing it as it came to me.If you have a few minutes, reflect on this Journal prompts:Start with the work if that’s what comes up first.
