In this episode of Tracy Talks, we’re diving deep into why the best time to plan your future might actually be when you’re tired and low on energy. Tracy shares a personal (and physically exhausting) story about moving peonies that proved how different a dream looks when reality finally sets in. It’s time to stop pretending we have infinite resources and start focusing on the top three goals that actually matter. By embracing our physical and emotional limits, we can stop chasing every “good idea” and start building a life that actually fits who we are. Listen in to learn why your dreams might need a “grown-up conversation” and how to find the path that’s truly worth the effort.
