You bought the robe. You lit the candle. You made the matcha. But you’re still spiraling inside. Let’s talk about it.

In this episode of The Poised Powerhouse Podcast, Dr. Seida gets all the way real about the “soft life” aesthetic and asks the question nobody wants to admit: Are you actually living soft—or just performing it for the ‘Gram?

Because baby… the bath bomb won’t heal burnout. Your nervous system doesn’t care how aesthetic your journal spread is. It wants to feel safe, grounded, and free.

✨ WHAT YOU’LL GET FROM THIS EPISODE:
✅ The truth behind the “soft life” trend (and why it’s not saving you)
✅ How hustle culture sneaks in through neutral tones and silk robes
✅ The difference between performing peace vs. practicing it
