I sat down with my friend Kate Maldjian for a heartfelt conversation about what happens when work becomes your whole identity and what it takes to reclaim your life from that. Kate opens up about her “worker bee phase,” when she was doing everything "right" but still feeling totally disconnected from herself.

We talk about the moment her laptop broke (spoiler: it was a blessing), how nature helped her come back to her body, and why hobbies and community might just be the medicine so many of us need.
