Reality Check My Life | Table Talk | S2E5: Work That Fits the Body
“If this work is aligned… why am I so tired?”
In this episode of Table Talk, Gin explores a question many people carry quietly — especially those doing meaningful, values-aligned work — and offers a reframe that brings relief instead of shame.
Alignment, she explains, isn’t just about purpose or passion.
It’s about fit.
A role can match your values and still overload your nervous system.
A calling can be real and still need redesign.
This episode is about bringing the body back into vocation — and learning how to right-size work without shrinking its meaning.
Inside this conversation:
Why “aligned” work can still exhaust the body
How alignment got oversimplified into passion alone
The difference between soul alignment and somatic fit
Why lineage-sensitive people burn out faster (and why it’s not weakness)
What it actually means to right-size vocation without quitting it
This episode offers permission to stop proving devotion through endurance — and to let work serve life instead of consuming it.
This is Table Talk: conversations about inhabiting your work humanely, where meaning and sustainability are finally allowed to coexist.
