“So many women struggle to create balance. Is that you?” If your answer is “yes,” Leslie is here to help. There’s no such thing as finding balance–you must create it, and on this solo episode of Why Didn’t They Tell Us?, Leslie has provided some confidence cultivator thought starters, a series of questions and time audits to determine what your priorities are and how to best utilize your time and energy so that both your needs and your desires are met.
It’s so important that you approach each question honestly and without judgment. Society’s “shoulds” have no place in this process. Whatever your priorities are–whether it’s your social life or creating more of a work-life balance–be honest and honor them.
Balance and calm go hand in hand. You can’t have one without the other. With Leslie’s help you are well on your way to creating more of both in your daily life.
Quotes
- “Chances are, if you’re going and going and giving and giving, there’s very little left for you when it’s all said and done. And let’s be honest, it never feels done, because it all starts over the next day.” (3:02 | Leslie)
- “Balance is not something you seek; it is something you create. With intention. With commitment and consistency.” (6:34 | Leslie)
- “Don’t judge; just notice. Remember I said you can’t beat yourself up to more self-confidence. The same applies here. You cannot beat yourself up to create more balance. Notice with love and compassion, not judgment.” (11:14 | Leslie)
- “Why didn't they tell us we can’t wait for balance and calm, we must create it.” (19:37 | Leslie)
- “By letting go of the external ‘shoulds’ and paying attention to our internal priorities, our internal desires, by making the time for them and savoring it when we do, we will create the calm and balance we so desire. I hope you do. I know you can. I'm cheering you on for all of it.” (19:46 | Leslie)
