When was the last time you did something just for fun—with no goals, no pressure, and no productivity attached? If you can’t think of an answer, you’re not alone. So many women struggle to have hobbies, and today, we’re going to talk about why.

We often blame a lack of time, but the real reason goes much deeper. In this episode, I’m sharing a personal experience that made me realize how easily we turn hobbies into obligations—whether it’s setting unnecessary goals, feeling pressure to be “good” at something, or even turning a hobby into a side hustle.

If you’ve ever caught yourself turning a hobby into another to-do list item, this conversation will help you take a step back and rethink how you approach fun, creativity, and time for yourself—without guilt.

In This Episode, We’ll Explore:

  • Why women struggle to do things just for fun
  • How hobbies slowly turn into side hustles or productivity goals
  • The mindset shift you need to truly enjoy a hobby guilt-free
  • Three things you must do to break free from the pressure to “achieve”
