I’ve been that person - overworked, overwhelmed, and disconnected. Modern culture has conditioned us to believe that doing more yields the best outcomes. Yet we’re often left feeling anxious, burned out, and miles away from fulfillment and joy.
On the surface, I had a promising career as a software engineer, but on the inside, I felt anxious and trapped in an emotional rut. At the time, therapy felt intimidating, coaching was expensive, self-help books lacked accountability, and meditation seemed…boring. The worst part? I only visited these tools when life took a negative turn. I was approaching my emotional health approach it reactively and I wasn’t alone.
