Consume VS Create: Where is your energy going??
Manage episode 509495075 series 3270406
In this episode of Guided Voyage, we explore a simple but powerful truth: every moment of your day, you’re either creating or consuming. Both are necessary, but not all consumption is equal. Some fuels you, while others leave you drained.
We’ll talk about:
The difference between nourishing and draining consumption
How imbalance — whether too much consuming or too much creating — throws us off-center
The lessons nature offers about balancing energy through the seasons
Practical steps to track your habits and bring awareness to where your energy flows
Throughout the episode, I guide you into reflection so you can begin noticing your own patterns.
Here are some questions to sit with this week:
Over the last 24 hours, where did your energy go? What did you consume, and what did you create?
Looking back at your journal, calendar, or even your smart watch data — do you notice if you’re leaning more into consuming or creating?
When you consume, is it nourishing you and fueling your creativity, or is it draining you?
How might you pair your consumption with creation? For example: eat → then move your body, read → then write, listen → then respond.
Which forms of consumption in your life feel nourishing, and which feel like drains?
What is one small adjustment you could try this week to bring your consumption and creation into better balance?
✨ Remember, balance isn’t about perfection. It’s about awareness — choosing, with intention, where your energy flows.
