This week, it's a real summer check-in and I'm not sugarcoating it. I'm in a funk, I'm overwhelmed, and my high-capacity self is running on empty in the middle of the most beautiful season of my life…

The moments where they are overscheduled or over performative or where there's pressure or frankly more people are feeling overwhelming to me and stressful.
My routines, the only routine thing that I'm really holding firm on is that porch coffee, like I mentioned, like I refuse to waffle on it.
And it's been so good for me to be out there every morning by 615 and relaxing and having what makes me feel best.
Like I'm waking up every single night at 2.30 in the morning, like clockwork and stuff.
And I'm like waking up sweaty and it's like, oh my God, is this Perry? I'm also getting social anxiety, which is super weird for me.
But I'm finding as I, there is something about the summer where I want there to be like 10 people.
On top of that, I am feeling just completely bowled over by, I don't want to say mental load because it feels like, God, are we ever going to talk about anything different on this podcast? But, like, I'm feeling overwhelmed in the magnitude of what I'm responsible for.
And, you know, Eliza on my team, who is fabulous, like, she says to me every single day, what can I take away off your plate right now? Like, what can I take from you to make things easier? And I tell her those things, and I still can't put my finger on what it is.
