So let's check it.

Okay. Welcome. Okay, welcome back in again, we're jumping right in again with Shuntay Grant. And we've had this great conversation this week about opting out a struggle, about really tangible and thoughtful ways that Shantay has made her professional life really joyful. And I always like to end with talking about personal life because I feel like,

and again, I'm speaking for myself. I'm always talking about my business on the podcast.

But I feel for myself, I think a lot of women are like me in the sense that like I had my

professional life together. I had boundaries up the wazoo. I that like I had my professional life together I had

boundaries up the wazoo I told everyone I got my planar in my sparkly pen last episode I had

that down right and I feel like black when we naturally excel professionally and it's a

little bit easier to see like where you can put those boundaries in your work day yeah

but my personal life was the last area of my life that I infused with joy.

And part of that was a combination of like expectation and we talked about struggle and what your life's

supposed to be like, like you said, adulting supposed to be terrible, right?

That was part of it.

And also like the same tools that I used in my professional life or was comfortable using, I was less comfortable using in my personal life, setting boundaries with family or friends or, you know, romantic relationships. Not as good with that, right. And so I've been on a mission as well to not just talk about how people cannot burn out professionally, but also

how they infuse joy in their personal light. And you started talking about that a little bit.

When you talked about your dynamics with your children and your family, but I want to explore

that more in any way direction you want to answer that. How are you bringing joy? You've got a

successful business. You've opted out a struggle. But how are you doing that in your personal life? How are you cent joy? You've got a successful business. You've opted out of struggle.

But how are you doing that in your personal life?

How are you centering joy there?

Yeah.
