  <title>To Be Honest, I Didn’t Realize What This Dream Would Cost Me</title>
  <description>You know that feeling of working toward something for so long, finally getting there, and then realizing it’s not as simple as you thought it would be? In this week’s “to be honest” episode, I’m sitting down with one of my best friends, Kelsey, to talk about what it actually looks like to follow your dreams and what no one really prepares you for once you get there. If you’ve ever felt pressure to have it all figured out, tied your identity to one path, or wondered if the life you’re building is actually sustainable… I think you’ll really relate to this one! We talk about:  Knowing what you want from a young age and the pressure that comes with that How your identity can get wrapped up in your goals What law school (and real life after) actually feels like Stress, comparison, and imposter syndrome The sacrifices that come with ambition (health, relationships, time) Feeling guilty for resting and struggling to separate worth from productivity What it means to keep showing up for your dream while also taking care of yourself  This episode is&amp;amp;nbsp;about being honest about what your dreams ask of you&amp;amp;nbsp;and figuring out how to build a life that feels good while you’re chasing them. ✨Lets connect on Instagram: @mikalen.co </description>
