Summary

The idea of a 'soft life' originated from a group of Nigerian influencers who chose the term to describe a way of living that was comfortable, joyful, minimised stress whilst prioritised self care and simple beauty, in comparison to hustle culture, burnout and urgency. In today's episode we are going to go through 5 practical tips to make this gentle life your reality, including:

The 'Picture This' exercise
The new way to approach your To Do list
How to organically regulate your nervous system
Creation over consumption
Rethinking our ideas for success

I also have a special announcement at the beginning of the episode! Thank you again for all the support.
