5 Things I Do After Work That Don’t Involve My Phone (Summer Edition)

The Twenties Detox

Show Notes

Maybe you don't hate your job. Your day is just missing your values.

For the longest time I thought I couldn't get excited about my days because I didn't enjoy my work enough. What I actually realized was I wasn't building anything into my week that was connected to my top values.

So in this episode, I'm sharing the top 5 things I do after a work day that don't involve my phone (or a TV).

Fair warning… please don't copy my routines! The point of a routine is regulation, familiarity, and listening to your body. What's perfect for me might look completely different for you. Use this as a starting point to figure out what YOU actually value.

We're halfway through summer. This is your gentle reminder to maximize the season you're in.

ANSWER TO QUIZ: C Because your after-work routine should work for you, not against you. You are way more unique than any routine on the internet. The best routine aligns with what you value, supports your current lifestyle (and what it might be missing), and helps your nervous system relax so you can feel more abundant afterwards.

Autumn is almost always at the top of the list when I ask people where I live what their favourite season is. And honestly, I understand why. Ontario in the fall is breathtaking.

Grief is one of those things that changes shape all the time.

Autumn isn’t asking us to stop, it’s asking us to listen. Turn inward, and reflect.

As the days get shorter and the shadows outside become a little more visible, autumn invites us to look inward, too. There’s something about this season that naturally brings our own shadows to the surface: the parts of ourselves we might avoid, the mistakes we still carry, and the feeling that we should be further along than we are. In this episode, we’re talking about the feeling of not being enough, learning to forgive ourselves for the things we wish we had done differently, and accepting ourselves for where we are right now, even when it isn’t where we ultimately want to be. Because when we’re constantly living in the past or reaching toward the future, we miss the only place where we can actually create change: the present moment. Think of this as your autumn reminder to slow down, meet yourself where you are, and make a little more peace with the person you’re becoming. 🩵
