Okay, if I go really hard in my career in one season, then I look up and I haven't talked to my friends in months, or I feel pretty disconnected in my marriage. And then if I switch gears to really focusing on my marriage, then it feels like my ability to be as proactive and creative in my work life or my friendships, that tends to suffer.

So here's what I'm trying to figure out. I'm trying to figure out how to balance building a good marriage while also building meaningful friendships and relationships outside of my marriage. I really struggle to strike a balance, if that's even possible. And so I'm wondering if we can dig into that.
Well, balance is insane. So trying to achieve that is like a myth. It's like trying to catch a dragon. It's like not real. But... I don't see these two things that you laid out as opposites. I see them as recursive. They work together. So tell me what you're struggling with on either side of the equation.
Yeah. I think what I'm struggling with is I feel like I'm always feeling guilty, like whichever direction I go. And if I throw work in there too, it's really like trying to sort out, okay, if I go really hard in my career in one season, then I look up and I haven't talked to my friends in months. or I feel pretty disconnected in my marriage.
And then if I switch gears to really focusing on my marriage, then it feels like my ability to be as proactive and creative in my work life or my friendships, that tends to suffer. And so I feel like I'm always spinning, trying to, I don't know, organize my calendar and my weeks in such a way that everything is getting the right amount of time. That doesn't even include time for me and myself.
