PODCAST S:2 EP:9 “Balance in a Busy World: FT. Greyson Killgore”

Hey everyone! Welcome back to another episode of ‘Mourning Tea’ where I sat down with Greyson, who’s pretty much one of my favorite people on this planet. Our conversation? It was all over the place—in the best way possible. Our discussion wandered through a variety of topics: the rollercoaster of major life changes, the challenge of finding balance, and the realities of managing a public persona on social media.

First off, I spilled the beans on my big move from California to Colorado. And wow, was it a rollercoaster. It wasn't just about packing up boxes and dealing with the world's most expensive movers. This move was a wake-up call. It made me realize I was on this non-stop treadmill, chasing after things because, well, isn't that what we're supposed to do? Moving away from that hustle bustle was like finally exhaling after holding my breath for too long. It was my moment to ask, “What am I even running after?”

Greyson and I got real about trying to find balance. If hustle culture had us believing anything, it was that you're either sprinting full speed or you're falling behind. But as we dove into it, cracking jokes and sharing stories, we uncovered a different truth. Balance isn’t about splitting your day into perfectly equal parts; it's about carving out moments for what lights you up inside.

As we wrapped up our conversation, this chat with Greyson was a reminder of the unpredictable, beautiful mess that life can be. Sure, it's filled with its fair share of challenges, but it's also filled with moments of genuine joy and connection.

So, to anyone out there feeling overwhelmed by the relentless pace of life, remember this: It's perfectly okay to take a step back and figure out what makes you happy. Set those boundaries, embrace your quirks, and don't be afraid to let your true self shine through. The journey might be a bit bumpy, but it's ours to make, and it's filled with opportunities to laugh, grow, and find pockets of happiness in the most unexpected places.
