We talk a lot about balance — balancing work and rest, ambition and ease, others and ourselves. It sounds ideal, but often, balance feels like a juggling act that never quite holds. It keeps us chasing a version of calm that’s always just out of reach.
What if instead of striving for balance, we aimed for alignment? Alignment is quieter but more powerful. It’s about living from your values, not your schedule — and giving energy to the things that feel true to who you are now, not who you were five or ten years ago.
In this episode of Not Done Yet, we explore what it means to live in alignment: how to notice when something’s off, how to realign with what matters most, and how that shift changes everything — from how you spend your days to how you feel about aging itself.
