The Cost of Doing It All
In this episode, Brittany Anderson dives into the myth of “doing it all” and what it’s truly costing us. Through raw honesty and relatable stories, she unpacks how chasing everything often pulls us further from our purpose — leaving us exhausted, disconnected, and unfulfilled.
Brittany shares how alignment, not effort, is the path back to joy. She reminds listeners that life isn’t about checking every box; it’s about choosing what’s yours to carry. With her signature mix of warmth and truth-telling, she challenges women to pause, breathe, and remember who they are beneath the roles and responsibilities.
💡 Key Takeaways
Doing it all often costs us the connection to what’s actually ours to do.
When you try to speak to everyone, you end up connecting with no one.
Alignment will always speak louder than effort.
More isn’t always better — sometimes more is just noise.
The real cost of doing it all isn’t exhaustion, it’s disconnection.
Choosing what’s truly yours to do leads to clarity and deeper relationships.
You start showing up not because you have to, but because you want to.
You’re not here to do it all — you’re here to do what’s yours.
The right things will never require you to lose yourself.
Take a breath, take a pause, and remember your purpose.
