Why we struggle with balance:

-We want to do it all

-We think we need to do it all to be worthy

-We think it’s our job to make people like us, making it hard for us to say ‘no”

-We have bought into the concept that we earn our worth / value

-We keep ourselves so busy because sometimes we don’t want to think about life
