This week I reflect on busyness and its relationship with parental (or any other kind) burnout
I'll discuss:
Why people look at me funny whenever I'm asked if work is "busy" and I say "No!"
My history with associating being busy with being safe - family patterns, coping with school bullying, work patterns and coping as a new mum with birth trauma
How my body has shown me that I'm no longer built for being busy
Why we use busyness to avoid stillness and why we need stillness to grow and learn
The quote about life that made my stomach flip and an exercise you can use to reflect on the life you want
