About this listen
In this episode of Knowing is Knowing, we unpack the tension between what we want and what we actually have the capacity to give. Desire is powerful—it fuels connection, ambition, creativity, and love. But capacity is honest. It’s shaped by time, energy, healing, boundaries, and season of life.
This conversation explores how misalignment between capacity and desire shows up in relationships, work, purpose, and self-expectations. We talk about why wanting something deeply doesn’t always mean you’re ready for it, how overextending yourself leads to burnout and resentment, and why honoring your capacity isn’t selfish—it’s necessary.
If you’ve ever felt torn between showing up for others and protecting yourself, or questioned why something you want still doesn’t feel sustainable, this episode is for you. Sometimes growth isn’t about wanting more—it’s about being honest about where you are.
