What if the opposite of hard isn’t easy—but soft? In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to live and work softly in a world that constantly tells us business, selling, and creativity have to be hard.

Not soft as in vague or wobbly - but soft as in grounded, steady, and kind to ourselves while we do meaningful work. This is a conversation about pressure, language, and the quiet ways we make things harder than they need to be.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why hard work comes naturally to us - and how “soft” offers a better way to the same goal
• How pressure and self-criticism sneak into our work without us noticing
• Simple language shifts that help interrupt shame spirals
• What it looks like to hold work, selling, and creativity with care instead of force
• Why approaching ideas (like writing a book) with curiosity can open doors instead of shutting us down
