127. Choices, Dropping the Ball & Never Enough Hours
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this week’s Coffee Chat, I’m talking about something every parent, every woman, every human feels — that pressure of trying to hold all the balls, make all the choices, and somehow keep up as we head into Christmas.
I share a moment from just this week: standing in my kitchen at 9pm, exhausted after a full day of work and training, trying to decide between dishes, a shower, or doing a puzzle with my 6-year-old… and what happened when I finally walked back out and found him fast asleep. And then what my oldest son did next 🥹
This episode is about the real version of dropping the ball — not the Instagram version — but the human one. The version that shows love in unexpected places, the version that reminds us we can’t do everything, and the version that frees us from the myth of “balance.”
If you’re feeling stretched thin, guilty, overwhelmed, or like there are never enough hours in the day… this one’s for you. You are not failing. You’re just in a full season, and you’re doing better than you think.
Grab your coffee, take a breath, and join me for a gentle reminder that the balls you’re dropping aren’t the ones that matter most 🤍
