Why we struggle with balance:

-We want to do it all

-We think we need to do it all to be worthy

-We think it’s our job to make people like us, making it hard for us to say ‘no”

-We have bought into the concept that we earn our worth / value

-We keep ourselves so busy because sometimes we don’t want to think about life

Seven Ways to Increase Balance in Your Life:

  1. Stop staying that you can’t find balance in your life.
  2. Claim the word & repeat (make it your password)
  3. Create boundaries with your time
  4. Be okay saying “no”
  5. Invest in building confidence in your self-efficacy
  6. Keep moving, but stand still sometimes
  7. Give yourself permission to expand the areas that need it (Circle of Life Wheel)
