I'm Exhausted But I Don't Know How To Slow Down: How Setting Goals Can Actually Slow You Down | Ep. 231

In this episode, I open up about what it feels like to be completely worn out—juggling work, parenting, and big life changes—and how I’ve learned to slow down without losing momentum. I know the fear that everything will fall apart if you stop pushing, but I’m here to share why that doesn’t have to be true.

I talk about the mindset shift that helped me most: seeing planning not just as time management, but as personal development. When I started treating my calendar and task list as tools to support the life I actually want, everything changed.

I also introduce the Flow Planning Method, a system I use and teach that blends structure and flexibility so we can stay focused, aligned with our values, and responsive to real life. Plus, I invite you to join my free consistency challenge and planning course—two supportive spaces to help you take action without burning out.

This episode is all about reclaiming your energy, honoring your limits, and planning in a way that feels kind, not rigid. If you’ve been running on empty, I hope this helps you reconnect with what matters and find a pace that works for you.
