Hello, my love. I hope this finds you doing so well. Welcome to another special episode that I'm releasing now while we're still under COVID-19 quarantine.

Today, we're going to be talking about a simple strategy

for managing the feelings that are coming up right now. The pressure to do and accomplish and produce right now.

The pressure to deep clean your closet while working from home, while parenting full time, or grocery shopping for your elders,

while dealing with the stress of being a clinician on the front lines.

And the codependency that may be coming up

while you're locked in with your partner or other humans in your life that may have you feeling like you need to be everything to everyone.

To take care of so many others before you turn your beautiful attention to yourself.

And this concept with simple strategy is the idea of equal airtime.

A lot of us are struggling with finding balance right now,

not just the usual work-life balance,

but the balance of energy and emotions.

Grief and fear and freak out and panic and sadness and shut down.

And also the balance of feeling okay with when you're feeling okay.

From what I hear from my clients from your emails and dams, a lot of you are judging yourself for complaining about your situation

since others have it worse. And then you feel guilty about complaining, you judge yourself for complaining or for being sad or angry or weirded out or

for finding some joy and some peace and some comfort right now You may judge yourself for doing all the things right now and not feeling

enough or feeling so much that you are not being productive.

A podcast listener recently shared with me over on Instagram that she's feeling guilty

for not being able to give her six-year-old her full attention,

while she and her partner are both working full-time

from home.
