Episode Synopsis

You know you can only take one step at a time. Yet, we expect ourselves to leap and jump and spin - and then we're surprised when we're tired and we flop. Or we give up on a new path that felt so exciting but quickly turned into an overwhelming pressure cooker of our own expectations. In this episode we talk about slowing down - forcing ourselves to slow down! - and the unexpected positive outcomes that brings. And most importantly, we practice together, again, bringing you one step closer to making these healthy coping tools habitual in your life.
