Welcome back to Self Love Tonic! Season 3 is here and fully loaded with weekly episodes. No more gaps, no more waiting. I’m so glad to be back behind the mic after a much-needed break and even more excited to bring you this powerful first episode.

Today, we’re diving into a topic that hits home for so many of us: balance.

We’ve all been sold the dream that we can “have it all” if we just find the right formula. But what if balance isn’t the goal? What if chasing it is actually what’s keeping us stuck, overwhelmed, and exhausted?

In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey of trying (and failing) to “balance it all” and the mindset shift that helped me finally feel more grounded and fulfilled.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why the concept of balance can actually fuel burnout
• How to recognize the season you’re in AND honor it
• What it means to shift from spinning your wheels in the mud to living with more intention
• How to realign with where you are right now and get clear on your priorities

Plus, I’ll share the book that helped reframe my entire perspective and a few journaling prompts that will help you check in with yourself and make space for what matters most.

Journaling Prompts from Today’s Episode:
📝 What season of life am I in, and have I been honoring that?
📝 What are my top 3 priorities in this season, and what shifts do I need to make to support them?
📝 In what areas of my life am I forcing balance, and where can I embrace flow instead?
