It’s about finding the sweet spot between doing and real living, embracing a lifestyle that balances life enjoyment with purposeful achievement.

    OUR WHY

    Reading Time: 2 minutes

    You know my story. I used to hustle. And then, I decided there’s a different life out there that looked more fun.

    I woke up this morning and after watching the sunrise I did a quick inventory of the past 5 years of my life. Turns out I lost and found a few things along the way.

    Here there are:

    LOST

    FOUND

    2. Thinking that my work equals my worth
    3. Being glued to a screen
    4. Social media addiction

    6. Endless mental chatter
