5 myths that make work-life balance feel...

Rebecca Olson
About this episode

In this week’s episode, we’re tackling the 5 biggest myths about work-life balance that are keeping you stuck in stress and overwhelm. You might think you need more time, that you should be able to handle everything on your own, or that your situation is just different—but these beliefs are exactly what’s holding you back. I’ll walk you through these myths, why they feel so real, and how to break free from them to create a life that actually feels balanced. You ready? Let’s get to it! 

Topics in this episode:

  • The #1 myth keeping you stuck in burnout (hint: it’s about time!) 
  • Why believing you should do it all on your own is setting you up to fail 
  • The lie that your circumstances are "too different" to find balance 
  • How waiting for a "better season" is actually making things worse 
  • The sneaky way "I don’t know" keeps you from real change
