В этом выпуске вы познакомитесь с Колобком, узнаете, кто он, как он родился, и почему он так трагически умер. 
В первой части я расскажу краткое резюме сказки "Колобок", а во второй части прочитаю сказку в оригинале. Надеюсь, вам будет интересно. 
Спойлер: Колобок - это круглый хлеб, который ожил и покатился искать приключения. 

Вот небольшой фрагмент последней песни Колобка: 
"Я Колобок, Колобок!
Я по коробу скребен,
По сусеку метен,
На сметане мешон,
Да в масле пряжон,
На окошке стужон;
Я от дедушки ушел,
Я от бабушки ушел,
Я от зайца ушел,
Я от волка ушел,
И от медведя ушел,
А от тебя, лиса, и подавно уйду!"

Если вы поняли не все слова, это нормально. Линии 1-5 могут быть непонятны даже русскому человеку, потому что использованы не очень современные слова.

Crush Chaos, Own Your Career: 5 Hacks for Women Who Do It All

Oh, that glorious chaos of adulting! Left hand typing reports, right hand folding laundry, one foot meal-prepping, and the other chasing a toddler. “Balance”? More like “survival mode.” But fear not—I’ve cracked the code. As a self-proclaimed “balance wizard,” here’s my cheat sheet:

1️⃣ Daily ‘Mini-Vacation’
Steal 30 minutes every day for pure joy: a book, Netflix, doodling, or staring at trees. Non-negotiable. (Your sanity will thank you.)

2️⃣ People > To-Do Lists
Swap “productivity guilt” for real moments with loved ones. Pro tip: Laughing with friends recharges you faster than 10 coffees.

3️⃣ Perfectionism? Kick It to the Curb
Repeat after me: “Done > Perfect.” Your boss won’t notice the typo. But burnout? Oh, they’ll notice that.

4️⃣ Master the Art of “NOPE”
Not your emergency? Not your problem. Boundaries = freedom. (And fewer 3 AM Slack pings.)

5️⃣ Phone? Gone on Weekends
Activate “ghost mode.” No emails. No doomscrolling. Just living. (Spoiler: The world won’t collapse.)

Your Turn, Balance Warriors!
