Hi Reader As we step well into September, I want to share something that weighs on my heart, especially during this time of year: Emotional Labor. The transition from summer to fall would bring a familiar whirlwind of emotions and responsibilities that left me feeling not just busy, but bone-deep tired. It’s that exhaustion that sneaks up on you at the end of the day—not the good kind that comes from meaningful accomplishments, but a weariness that feels heavy and unrelenting. If you’ve ever felt like you’re running a marathon in quicksand, you’re not alone. In my monthly blog, I explore the invisible labor many carry—so often unacknowledged—yet crucial to the fabric of our daily lives. I'm hoping it gives you a little more solace and understanding along the way and why it can be so easy to feel dazed and worn. If you read my post, Our Emotional Labor Daze and How It Steals Our Joy (And Time), I'll share a process that has increased my ability to enjoy life and become more present, daily. It has also helped me choose to be more proactive in scheduling, too. Details are shared when you head over to my blog to discover more about the hidden emotional labor we all carry and my strategy to lighten the load for ourselves. Or, if time is at a premium, simply gain access to the Think-Sift-Shift Process by clicking the highlighted link, shared in Mariah Faith's Slacker Hack Podcast earlier this year. DeShawn P.S. October is bringing some spine-tingling developments that I can't wait to share! |
