Description: In this Ask Rach episode, Rachel answers two powerful listener questions that so many women can relate to. First, a caller asks how to take care of herself without feeling completely burnt out. Rachel shares how burnout is often a symptom of overcommitting, and why the key to recovery is aligning your time and energy with your deepest values. Then, another caller opens up about the struggle of balancing work, home, and life with a new baby. Rachel offers her signature big sister advice on why “balance” is a myth, what rhythm looks like in real life, and how to keep perspective in the hardest seasons. With practical wisdom, humor, and heart, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone and you don’t have to do it all.Get your copy of Rachel's New Book Here: Audible, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Millon, Bookshop.org, or wherever books are sold!1:08 Welcome to the Show: Subscribe and Support02:08 Ask Rach: Finding Balance When Life Feels Heavy04:14 Voicemail from Courtney: Overcoming Burnout07:43 Business Advice: Maximizing Your Time and Effort18:48 Self-Care Practices: Daily Habits and Boundaries24:56 Voicemail from Dana: Work-Life Balance Myth39:35 Final Thoughts and EncouragementSign up for Rachel’s weekly email: https://msrachelhollis.com/insider/Call the podcast hotline and leave a voicemail!
