Both Kelly and Brooke have big problems with the notion of living a 'balanced' life, as it adds several layers of stress and expectation to lives that already feel full to the brim with 'shoulds' and 'have to's'.  Plus, as Kelly talks about, trying to find a work/life balance forces us to compartmentalise our lives - and it's incredibly tough to live intentionally when we're too distracted trying to keep the weight balanced evenly across all segments of our lives. Brooke is a big proponent of the idea of tilting rather than balancing, and she talks about how she applies it to her daily life, and how tilting stops the feeling of overwhelm. Head over to http://www.letitbe.fm to learn more about Kelly and Brooke and subscribe to the show!

Let It Be

Is 'balance' just another myth we're killing ourselves to achieve?
