      <title>If You Want to Be More Confident, Communicate Like THIS | Shereen Mitwalli</title>
      <description>What if confidence isn’t something you build… but something you express?



In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Shereen Mitwalli to unpack one of the biggest misconceptions around confidence: that it comes from what you say, when in reality… it comes from how you say it.

If you’ve ever felt like you know what you want to say but hesitate, overthink, or struggle to articulate yourself clearly, this conversation will completely reframe how you approach communication.



Because confidence isn’t about saying more.

 It’s about saying things in a way that actually lands.



This episode explores the subtle shifts that can transform how people perceive you, whether that’s being taken seriously at work, feeling more self-assured in conversations, or simply expressing who you truly are without second guessing yourself.



What We Cover:

* Why confidence is more about delivery than content

* The 3 key principles to communicate clearly and effectively

* How overthinking is quietly undermining your confidence

* Why not everyone needs to like you (and why that’s powerful)

* The biggest communication mistakes people make without realising

* How to speak in a way that makes people actually listen

* Practical ways to show up more confidently at work and in life

 Subscribe to The Balance Theory for more conversations that help you think clearer, show up stronger, and create a life that actually feels aligned.

      <title>Why Fasting &amp; Eating Clean Might Be Backfiring for You | Iman Hasan</title>
      <description>What if the reason you still feel off… isn’t because you’re not trying hard enough, but because the advice you’re following was never designed for your body?

In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Iman Hasan to unpack one of the most frustrating experiences so many women face: doing everything “right” when it comes to health - eating clean, trying fasting, investing in supplements and still not feeling better.

This conversation challenges the idea that more discipline or stricter habits are the answer. Instead, it explores what’s actually happening beneath the surface, from chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation to why your body might not be absorbing the nutrients you’re giving it.

If you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t responding the way it “should”… this episode will help you understand why and what to focus on instead.

What We Cover:
* Why fasting doesn’t work the same for every woman and when it can actually make things worse
* The hidden impact of stress and being in a constant fight-or-flight state
* Why your body might not be absorbing nutrients (even if you’re eating well)
* The truth about “healthy eating” and why food quality isn’t what it used to be
* Why supplements alone won’t fix the root issue
* The importance of cell health and what it actually means
* How to approach your health in a way that works with your body, not against it
* Simple, overlooked shifts that can make a real difference day-to-day

You’re not doing it wrong, but your body might be under more stress than you realise. And until your body feels safe, no amount of “healthy habits” will work the way you expect them to.

In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with top 1% podcast host and founder Shivani Pau to unpack the reality behind wanting more, feeling stuck, and questioning whether it’s time to leave your job.

This isn’t another conversation telling you to “just quit” or “follow your passion.”It’s a grounded, honest look at what actually happens when you move too soon and what truly needs to shift before your life can change.

If you’ve ever felt like:

“I want more from my life… but I don’t know what’s stopping me”

“I’m not fulfilled, but I don’t feel ready to leave”

“I’m scared I’ll make the wrong decision”

“Why hasn’t anything changed yet, even though I want it to?”

then this episode is for you!

🔑 What We Cover:
* The truth about quitting your job too early (and what it taught Shivani)
* Why feeling “ready” is often misunderstood
* The difference between timing vs internal readiness
* The mistake most people make when trying to change their life
* How to build proof of concept before taking the leap
* Why your environment plays a bigger role than you think
* Redefining self-worth beyond external validation
* How to stop feeling stuck and start creating real momentum

This episode will give you the clarity you’ve been missing.

      <title>  If You Want Both a Career and a Family… You Need to Hear This</title>
      <description> What if the reason so many ambitious women feel torn about motherhood isn’t because they have to choose… but because no one has shown them how both can actually work?

In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with psychologist and friend (and her first guest ever on the show) Nancy Sokarno, to unpack the real, unfiltered experience of becoming a working mum - beyond the surface-level advice and societal expectations.

This conversation explores the identity shift that comes with motherhood, the internal conflict high-achieving women often face, and the uncomfortable truths that aren’t spoken about enough: from grief and resentment to guilt and pressure to “do it all.”

But more importantly, it reframes the narrative.

This isn’t about choosing between ambition and family. It’s about understanding what needs to evolve within you to hold both.
Whether you’re planning to become a mum, navigating early motherhood, or trying to build a life that includes both career and family, this episode will give you a deeper perspective on what that actually requires.



💭 What We Cover:


  Why motherhood is an identity evolution, not just a new role

  The internal pressure to be the “perfect” mother — and how to let it go

  Why high-achieving women often struggle more in early motherhood

  Grieving your old self while stepping into a new version of you

  The truth about resentment, guilt, and relationship shifts after a baby

  How to communicate better with your partner before and after becoming parents

  Why asking for help is harder than it sounds (and how to shift this)

  The reality of becoming a working mum — and why simple things feel harder

  What ambition looks like after motherhood — and how it changes

  The key mindset shift that allows you to build both a career and a family


You don’t go backwards after becoming a mother, you evolve.

The version of you that’s capable of holding both ambition and motherhood isn’t the old you… it’s the next version of you.

      <title>Manifest Your Dream Life Faster (Without Working Harder) | Regan Hillyer</title>
      <description>What if the reason you’re not living your dream life yet isn’t because you’re not working hard enough… but because you’re focusing on the wrong things?



In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with manifestation expert and entrepreneur Regan Hillyer to break down what actually creates results  and why working harder is often the biggest misconception holding you back.



This is not about wishful thinking or surface-level manifestation. It’s about understanding your internal programming, shifting your emotional state, and learning how to align your actions with the life you actually want.If you’ve ever felt like:

“I know I’m capable of more, but I don’t know where to start”

“I’m doing everything right… but nothing is changing”

“I don’t have enough time, money, or resources yet”



this conversation will challenge that and give you a new way to approach creating your dream life.



🔑 What We Cover:

- Why working harder is NOT the answer to building your dream life

- The hidden beliefs that keep you stuck in the same reality

- How to stop living on autopilot and start creating intentionally

- Practical steps to manifest your exact dream life

- The role of emotional state in attracting opportunities

- How successful people actually think differently about growth and success



You don't want to miss this episode. It literally felt like magic sitting in it!

      <itunes:summary>What if the reason you’re not living your dream life yet isn’t because you’re not working hard enough… but because you’re focusing on the wrong things?



In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with manifestation expert and entrepreneur Regan Hillyer to break down what actually creates results  and why working harder is often the biggest misconception holding you back.



This is not about wishful thinking or surface-level manifestation. It’s about understanding your internal programming, shifting your emotional state, and learning how to align your actions with the life you actually want.If you’ve ever felt like:

“I know I’m capable of more, but I don’t know where to start”

“I’m doing everything right… but nothing is changing”

“I don’t have enough time, money, or resources yet”



this conversation will challenge that and give you a new way to approach creating your dream life.



🔑 What We Cover:

- Why working harder is NOT the answer to building your dream life

- The hidden beliefs that keep you stuck in the same reality

- How to stop living on autopilot and start creating intentionally

- Practical steps to manifest your exact dream life

- The role of emotional state in attracting opportunities

- How successful people actually think differently about growth and success



You don't want to miss this episode. It literally felt like magic sitting in it!

      <title>What to Stop Saying Yes To (If You Want a Better Life)</title>
      <description>What if the reason you feel constantly busy, overwhelmed, or pulled in every direction is because you’re saying yes to the wrong things?



In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Christine Assouad - author, serial entrepreneur, investor on Shark Tank Lebanon, and founder behind multiple ventures including Dunkin’ Lebanon and Semsom. She has mentored thousands of women across the Middle East and beyond and recently released her book The Power to Say Yes, which explores how learning to say yes to yourself can transform your life and career. 



In this conversation, Christine shares what she has learned from mentoring thousands of women, why so many ambitious people struggle with guilt and overcommitment, and how to become intentional about where your time, energy, and attention go. 



This episode dives into the tension between being capable and feeling obliged, why energy management matters more than time management, and how to start designing a life aligned with what actually matters to you.



What We Cover

• Why so many people say yes to everyone except themselves

 • The hidden difference between being capable and feeling obligated 

• The Wheel of Life exercise to understand what truly matters • Why many ambitious women feel burnt out despite doing everything “right” 

• The importance of energy management, not just time management

 • How saying yes to one opportunity can shape an entirely different life path 

• Why guilt often holds people back from pursuing what they want

 • The smallest “yes” you can start with today to reclaim control of your life



This episode could be the one that powerfully changes your life. Make sure to share it with a friend if someone came to mind during the episode!

      <title>How to Start Over (Even When You Think It’s Too Late)</title>
      <description>What if the version of you that feels stuck, behind, or embarrassed about your past… is actually standing at the beginning of something powerful?



In this episode, I sit down with Crazy Auntie Ann, who went from alcoholism and rock bottom to 3M+ followers on TikTok, not by trying to go viral, but by finally becoming herself.



We talk about what it really means to stop caring what people think, how to reinvent yourself at any age, and why surrender, not willpower, changed her life forever.



This is a conversation about identity, confidence, sobriety, self-forgiveness, and starting again.



If you’ve ever felt:

* Like you’re behind in life

* Like you wasted years

* Like it’s “too late” to change

* Or like you’ve been living for other people.



💬 One of My Favourite Moments: “It’s not about winning or self-control. It’s about defeat.”



That surrender became the beginning of everything for Ann.



This episode is for you.

      <title>How to Grow Without Losing Yourself  | Brooki</title>
      <description>From making just $300 a day in her early bakery days to raising $25 million in venture capital and expanding from local to global, this growth story is extraordinary. But this conversation isn’t just about numbers.

It’s about what happens when success comes fast.

In this episode of The Balance Theory, I’m joined by Brooki, founder of Brooki Bakehouse, for her first ever podcast interview.

We talk about the identity work that needs to happen before growth, the trade-offs that come with scaling a business publicly, and how to build something big without losing who you are. Because success doesn’t build your character, it reveals it.

In this episode, we unpack:
* How Brooki went from $300 days to raising $25M+
* The single decision that changed the trajectory of her business
* What it really felt like when everything started snowballing
* The reality of building a brand in public
* How she handles scrutiny and criticism
* The trade-offs of growing a global business while raising young children
* Why becoming a mum became her superpower, not a setback
* How to grow without losing yourself
* Why you need to build yourself before you build success

If you’re ambitious, building something, navigating change, or stepping into a new level of life, this episode will shift how you think about growth.

Because the real question isn’t how to succeed.
It’s who you become along the way.

Subscribe for more conversations on ambition, mindset, identity and building a life that feels aligned.

      <title>Why Positive Thinking Hasn’t Worked (And What Actually Does) | Marisa Peer</title>
      <description>What if the reason positive thinking hasn’t worked for you… isn’t because you’re doing it wrong, but because no one ever showed you how your mind actually listens?

In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Marisa Peer, and we go far beyond motivation or feel-good affirmations. This is a practical, step-by-step breakdown of how the words you use, especially the ones you say to yourself, directly shape your self-worth, confidence, and the reality you experience.

We talk about why so many people know what they should think, yet still feel stuck… why saying “I’m trying” quietly reinforces failure… and how subtle language patterns can either work with your brain or cause it to push back entirely.

If you’ve ever:
* Felt like you’re “doing the work” but nothing is changing
* Struggled with feeling not enough, even when life looks good on paper
* Tried affirmations that felt fake or forced
* Wondered whether you can really have it all, career, health, relationships, fulfilment
…this conversation will land.

Marisa shares the exact phrases, sentence structures, and mindset shifts that actually create change, including one powerful sentence you can start using today to rebuild self-worth and self-trust.

This is an episode you may want to listen to twice, not because it’s complex, but because it’s precise.

      <title>Everyday Habits That Build Real Self-Respect  | Dr Katherine Iscoe</title>
      <description>In this episode, we explore what self-respect actually means, beyond confidence, beyond success, beyond applause.

For years, today’s guest chased respect externally, having thoughts like:
If you liked me, I liked me. If you approved, I felt safe.

But as she shares, that way of living slowly disconnects you from yourself. I’m joined by Dr Katherine Iscoe to unpack:

• Why people-pleasing is often rooted in the “fawn” trauma response

• How you might be subtly trading yourself away in everyday moments

• The restaurant “steak” example that reveals more than you think

• How to audit your calendar to see if you truly respect yourself

• Why boundaries aren’t just with other people, they’re with yourself

• How overthinking steals years of your life

• The difference between chasing happiness and building self-respect

• What it actually looks like to make decisions from self-respect

Self-respect isn’t loud.It isn’t aggressive.It isn’t about becoming selfish.

It’s about choosing yourself in small, daily ways, even when it feels uncomfortable.

Because the truth is, confidence might get you in the room... but self-respect is what keeps you standing tall.

If you’ve ever felt like:
* You say yes too often
* You overthink simple decisions
* You care more about others’ opinions than your own
* You don’t feel fully like yourself anymore

This episode is for you.

The life you want doesn’t start with more discipline. It starts with self-respect.

      <title>How the World’s Biggest Podcast Thinks About Growth (And What It Means for You Personally)</title>
      <description>If you’re serious about podcast growth and creator growth, this episode will change how you think about building content that actually scales.



In this behind-the-scenes conversation, I sit down with Grace Miller, Head of Experimentation &amp; Failure at The Diary of a CEO, to unpack how one of the world’s biggest podcasts thinks about growth, testing, and long-term success.



We go inside how elite creators experiment and how small, intentional decisions compound into massive audience growth. From YouTube analytics and thumbnail testing to failing fast without losing confidence, this episode is a masterclass for anyone building a podcast, YouTube channel, or personal brand in 2026 and beyond.



You’ll learn: 

• How the world’s biggest podcasts approach growth and experimentation 

• What actually matters in the YouTube backend for podcast growth • How to test thumbnails, titles, and formats  

• How to build momentum through experimentation

 • How to fail fast, learn faster, and grow with clarity

 • Practical creator growth strategies you can implement immediately



This episode isn’t about hacks or virality. It’s about systems, curiosity, and sustainable growth, the foundations behind long-term success as a creator.

Whether you’re a podcaster, YouTuber, or creative entrepreneur, this conversation will help you stop guessing and start growing with intention.

      <title>How to Change Your Personality to Make Yourself More Confident | Dr. Shadé Zahrai</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-change-your-personality-to-make-yourself-confident</link>
      <description>Today, we break down the science of confidence, why self-doubt isn’t always the enemy, and how understanding your specific doubt pattern can unlock lasting self-trust, without becoming someone you’re not.
In this conversation, I’m joined by Dr Shadé Zahrai, behavioural researcher, award-winning peak performance educator, and one of the leading voices on confidence, self-image, and self-doubt.
This is not about hype or surface-level confidence. It’s about rewiring how you see yourself.
✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode
* Why confidence is trainable, not fixed
* The role self-doubt actually plays in growth and performance
* The 4 Self-Doubt Types and how they show up in behaviour
* How to diagnose your own self-doubt profile (including mine, live)
* The everyday habit that quietly erodes confidence
* How posture, environment, and physicality shape self-belief
* How to tell the difference between useful self-doubt and self-sabotage
* Why your self-image is the blueprint for your entire life
* Practical tools to build confidence in real time
* How to set boundaries with negative people without losing yourself
When you change how you see yourself, your behaviour follows.
Confidence isn’t something you chase, it’s something you build.

      <itunes:summary>Today, we break down the science of confidence, why self-doubt isn’t always the enemy, and how understanding your specific doubt pattern can unlock lasting self-trust, without becoming someone you’re not.
In this conversation, I’m joined by Dr Shadé Zahrai, behavioural researcher, award-winning peak performance educator, and one of the leading voices on confidence, self-image, and self-doubt.
This is not about hype or surface-level confidence. It’s about rewiring how you see yourself.
✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode
* Why confidence is trainable, not fixed
* The role self-doubt actually plays in growth and performance
* The 4 Self-Doubt Types and how they show up in behaviour
* How to diagnose your own self-doubt profile (including mine, live)
* The everyday habit that quietly erodes confidence
* How posture, environment, and physicality shape self-belief
* How to tell the difference between useful self-doubt and self-sabotage
* Why your self-image is the blueprint for your entire life
* Practical tools to build confidence in real time
* How to set boundaries with negative people without losing yourself
When you change how you see yourself, your behaviour follows.
Confidence isn’t something you chase, it’s something you build.

      <title>How To Stay Confident When Nothing Online Is Real Anymore | Danae Mercer</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-stay-confident-when-nothing-online-is-real</link>
      <description>Confidence today feels different.
We’re navigating a world where AI can outperform humans, social media is increasingly curated (and often fake), and comparison is no longer occasional, it’s constant. Even the most grounded, capable people are quietly questioning themselves.
In this episode, we explore how to stay confident when nothing online feels real anymore and how to use social media without losing yourself.
Joining me is journalist, speaker, and mother Danae Mercer, who has worked at the highest levels of media and still found her confidence shaken by the online world. Together, we unpack what’s really happening beneath the surface of confidence in 2026, and what actually helps.
This isn’t about deleting social media or fearing AI. It’s about learning the new confidence skill this era demands.
💭 If You’ve Been Thinking…
“I don’t feel as confident as I used to”
“Everyone online seems ahead of me”
“I know better, but I still feel affected”
“I want my confidence back”
then this conversation is for you!
And if this episode resonates, share it with someone who might be quietly feeling the same way.

      <title>How to Get Good at Relationships (Most People Never Learn This) | Mo Gawdat</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-get-good-at-relationships-most-people-never-learn-thi</link>
      <description>Why do so many relationships fail, even if there’s love?
In this episode, I sit down with Mo Gawdat to unpack the logic, equations, and skills behind relationships and why love itself is actually the easy part.
Mo is the bestselling author of Solve for Happy and a former Google X executive, known for applying engineering and systems thinking to life’s hardest problems. In this conversation, we explore why 96.8% of relationships fail, what most people were never taught about love, and how relationships can be learned, trained, and improved, just like any other skill.
This episode isn’t about romantic clichés or surface-level advice. It’s about understanding:
* why love is logical, not irrational
* how we unknowingly block love
* why relationships fail when seasons change
* and how to become good at relationships, without settling or second-guessing yourself
Whether you’re single and looking for love, dating, or already in a long-term relationship, this conversation will change the way you think about connection.
We of course also get to know Mo, from his way of thinking all the way through to his current project - EMMA.
If this conversation resonates, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

      <title>How to Become the Person You Want to Be in 2026 | Karen Mattar</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-become-the-person-you-want-to-be-in-2026</link>
      <description>If you feel like there’s a gap between the person you are and the person you know you could be, this episode is for you.
In this conversation with Karen Mattar, we explore what really keeps people stuck in the same patterns year after year and why motivation, willpower, and “trying harder” so often fail.
This episode is about outgrowing a life that no longer fits, rebuilding confidence through self-respect, and becoming someone who actually follows through on the promises they make to themselves. Not through pressure or self-control, but through identity, leadership, and alignment.
If you’ve ever thought “I know I’m meant for more” but struggled to close the gap between intention and action, this conversation will help you understand why, and what needs to change.
This episode is for the person who:
• Feels like they’ve outgrown their current life
• They’re tired of starting over every year
• They struggle with consistency and follow-through
• They want habits that last, not another motivation spike
• They’re ready to become the person they keep visualising
Trust this episode will find you when it’s meant to!

      <title>The #1 Habit Keeping You From Achieving What You Want | Chantale Ishac</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/the-1-habit-keeping-you-from-achieving-what-you-want-chantal</link>
      <description>If you’ve been doing all the “right” things and still feel stuck, this episode is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed. I’m joined by my therapist, Chantale, who returns for a third time to help me unpack this in a way only she can.
Today we’re breaking down the #1 habit keeping you from achieving what you want, a habit she taught me that changed EVERYTHING for me, a habit so common most people don’t even realise they’re doing it…
This habit is the reason why you feel guilty saying no, why fear shows up every time you try something new. You’ll learn how to recognise when you’re operating from an inauthentic version of yourself, why your goals fall apart when they’re built on fear, and the neuroscience behind stepping outside your comfort zone.
This is a practical, grounded conversation about building self-trust, setting boundaries without guilt, dissolving limiting beliefs, and finally creating goals that feel true to who you are, not who you think you “should” be.
By the end, you’ll know exactly how to break this habit, stop abandoning yourself, and take the first aligned step toward the life you actually want.
This will unlock everything for you.

      <itunes:summary>If you’ve been doing all the “right” things and still feel stuck, this episode is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed. I’m joined by my therapist, Chantale, who returns for a third time to help me unpack this in a way only she can.
Today we’re breaking down the #1 habit keeping you from achieving what you want, a habit she taught me that changed EVERYTHING for me, a habit so common most people don’t even realise they’re doing it…
This habit is the reason why you feel guilty saying no, why fear shows up every time you try something new. You’ll learn how to recognise when you’re operating from an inauthentic version of yourself, why your goals fall apart when they’re built on fear, and the neuroscience behind stepping outside your comfort zone.
This is a practical, grounded conversation about building self-trust, setting boundaries without guilt, dissolving limiting beliefs, and finally creating goals that feel true to who you are, not who you think you “should” be.
By the end, you’ll know exactly how to break this habit, stop abandoning yourself, and take the first aligned step toward the life you actually want.
This will unlock everything for you.

      <title>Why You Don’t Need to Have Life “Figured Out” By 30 | Caggie Dunlop</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-you-dont-need-to-have-life-figured-out-by-30-caggie-dunl</link>
      <description>If you’re approaching your late 20s or early 30s and feel like you’re supposed to have your life together by now… this conversation will feel like a warm exhale.
In this episode, I sit down with Caggie Dunlop, founder of the Saturn Returns podcast and author of Saturn Return: Your Cosmic Coming of Age, to unpack what’s really happening when life feels turbulent, uncertain, or like everything is changing at once.
Whether you’re starting over after a breakup, questioning your career, drifting from old friendships, or simply thinking, “I thought I’d be further by now,” this episode will help you make sense of a chapter most people silently struggle through.
You’re not behind.
 You’re not failing.
 You’re becoming.
This episode is for those who are

27–33 and feel lost


questioning the life you thought you’d have

“starting over” when everyone else seems ahead

growing out of old friendships and identities

navigating big emotional changes all at once


Get ready to learn and reposition yourself to find grounding &amp; peace with your timeline.

      <title>These Daily Habits Are Draining Years From Your Life | Gary Brecka</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/these-daily-habits-are-quietly-draining-your-energy-gary-bre</link>
      <description>If you’ve been doing “everything right” but still don’t feel good, this conversation will connect the dots.
Today I’m joined by Gary Brecka, human biologist and longevity expert, to break down the daily habits that quietly drain your energy, increase anxiety, and limit your health span. The best part? Most of the fixes are totally free and within your control today.
In the first 10 minutes alone, Gary reveals the 3 free habits that have the biggest impact on your sleep, mood, stress, and long-term vitality - especially for people with busy lives and limited time or budget.
We also explore the link between isolation and early mortality, why so many people struggle with anxiety without knowing the biological reason behind it, and how to invest in your health in a way that actually moves the needle.
This episode is practical, grounding, and genuinely life-changing.
(01:28) Introduction
(03:01) 3 FREE things to extend your life
(06:43) Caregiver syndrome
(07:41) Investing in your wellness
(09:34) Why people struggle with anxiety
(12:32) 40% of people go to sleep like this
(15:48) Is it just about more years?
(20:13) Are you religious?
(21:48) This is the most attractive frequency
(24:37) Impact of Botox/Filler on longevity?
(29:58) How long are we going to live in 200 years?

      <title>How to Stop Letting Your Job or Relationships Define You | Twinkle Stanly</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-stop-letting-your-job-or-relationships-define-you-twi</link>
      <description>If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking “who am I without my job?” or felt your identity slipping when a relationship ends… this episode is going to hit home.
Today I’m joined by Twinkle Stanly, content creator, speaker, and the woman behind one of the most relatable pivots online right now. We dive deep into what it actually feels like to walk away from a life that looks “fine” on paper, but no longer feels aligned.
If you’ve been questioning your path, feeling disconnected from who you are, or stuck between wanting more and not knowing where to begin -this conversation will help you find clarity, confidence, and your true identity again.
In this episode, we unpack:
💭 Leaving a job you didn’t hate - but still knowing you’re meant for more
💭 Why so many women tie their identity to job titles, achievements or relationships
💭 Finding the courage to pivot without proof that it will work out
💭 The fear of losing your labels and rebuilding who you are without them
💭 Why your niche is YOU (and why overthinking it keeps you stuck)
💭 How to detach from people’s opinions and trust your inner knowing
💭 Spiritual vs strategic confidence and the mindset that gets you moving again
Whether you’re going through a transition, craving reinvention, or trying to reconnect with yourself… this episode will remind you that you are allowed to choose a new life, even if the old one wasn’t “bad.”

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-find-confidence-in-different-areas-of-life-kayla-itsi</link>
      <description>We all go through seasons where life changes, again and again. Whether it’s becoming a parent, finding confidence, learning about money or figuring out who you are beyond your career, this conversation with Kayla Itsines dives deep into what her evolution has really looked like.
From finding confidence on stage and handling online negativity, to postpartum recovery and redefining balance between pregnancy, post partum, being online, fitness, family, and wealth - Kayla opens up in a way she never has before.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m trying to find myself again” or felt like your confidence disappeared somewhere along the way… this episode will remind you it’s never gone, it just needs to be rebuilt in this new season of life, along with some personal insights into Kayla’s own journey.

      <title>Why Your Perfect Plan Will Fail (and How to Win Anyway) | Amina Yonis</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-your-perfect-plan-will-fail-and-how-to-win-anyway-amina</link>
      <description>Life not going to plan? Sick of things not working out the way you imagined?
 Here’s the truth: your “perfect plan” will fail. But that doesn’t mean you will.
In this powerful conversation with Amina, we break down the myths of control, why obsessing over the “perfect path” keeps you stuck, and how to actually win when life takes unexpected turns.
🔑 What You’ll Learn

Why your perfect plan will never go the way you expect

How to adapt and win when life throws curveballs

The truth about productivity (and why you’re measuring it wrong)

How to know which season of productivity you’re in

Tools and rules to finally take control of your time

bonus: Is AI going to take all our jobs!?


From career shifts and finding balance at work, to redefining productivity and embracing motherhood’s lessons, Amina shares hard-won insights that will challenge your assumptions and open your eyes to a new way forward.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated, stuck, or like you’re constantly “behind” in life — this episode is for you.

      <title>Why High-Performing Women Secretly Struggle With Feminine Energy | Nadia Zaal</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-high-performing-women-secretly-struggle-with-feminine-en</link>
      <description>High-performing women know how to hustle — but what happens when that constant push starts blocking the very life you want?
In this powerful conversation with Nadia Zaal — mother, entrepreneur, and leader, we explore why ambitious women secretly struggle to access their feminine energy. We unpack the hidden blocks that keep us in overdrive, the stigma around slowing down, and how learning to let go can actually open the doors to deeper success, balance, and fulfillment.
🔑 We chat:

Why high-performing women stay stuck in masculine energy

The hidden cost of always “pushing” for results

How to soften into feminine energy without losing ambition

The power of yielding, surrender, and receiving

How motherhood can transform the way we approach success


If you’ve ever felt like you can’t switch off, that surrender equals weakness, or that you’re “too busy to relax", this episode is for you.
🌸 True success isn’t about doing more ... it’s about being aligned.

      <description>If you’ve been feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like life just isn’t moving forward — this episode is for you.
In just a few minutes, I’ll share one powerful question that can completely shift your mindset, spark self-accountability, and reignite momentum in your life. No fluff, no long-winded pep talks — just a simple but confronting reflection that can change everything.
✨ In this episode:
 – Why you might feel like nothing is changing 
– The difference between wanting goals and showing up for them 
– How to reconnect with your drive and purpose 
– A question that cuts through the noise and gets you focused
Whether you're waiting for motivation, clarity, or a breakthrough — start here. Sometimes, all it takes is one question to realign and reset.

      <title>The Missing Step to Creating the Life You Deserve | Jasmine Elizabeth</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/the-missing-step-to-creating-the-life-you-deserve-jasmine-el</link>
      <description>Are you settling without even realising it? 💭
So many of us hold back from asking for what we truly want - in life, love, and business, and end up living smaller than we deserve. This episode will open your eyes to the hidden reasons why you never get what you want … and the mindset shifts you need to finally change that.
✨ Inside this conversation, we unpack:
* How to build the confidence to create life on your own terms
* Breaking free from tying your worth to your output
* What it means if you’re living someone else’s life
* How to ask for what you want without guilt
* The truth about standards, money, and relationships (yes, we talk about the “if he was broke, I wouldn’t choose him” moment 👀)
* Why success isn’t about working harder and how to create financial freedom
* Becoming your own backup plan (so you never feel trapped again)
This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, “fine where they are,” or afraid to ask for more - consider this the sign you’ve been waiting for.
🔑 You deserve more. You deserve a life that feels yours. And it all starts here.

      <description>Still waiting to “feel motivated” before making a change? In this powerful conversation with Tracy Harmoush, we reveal why motivation is overrated and the real skill you need to create lasting change in your life.

Tracy shares her proven approach to building unshakable discipline, creating freedom through structure, and shifting your mindset so you can finally achieve what you want, without relying on fleeting bursts of motivation.
💡 You can expect:


Why motivation is unreliable (and how to break free from it)

The mindset shift that turns discipline into freedom

How to follow through even when you don’t feel like it


The truth about long-term success (it’s not what you think)

Practical tools to rewire your habits for good


If you’re ready to stop starting over and start building a life you can be proud of, this podcast is for you!

      <title>Psychologist Reveals the One Thing Self-Aware Parents Do Differently | Dr Saliha Afridi</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-self-aware-people-still-get-parenting-wrong</link>
      <description>What if being self-aware isn’t enough to be the parent you want to be?
In this eye-opening episode, I’m joined by clinical psychologist and parenting expert Dr. Saliha Afridi to explore the often overlooked connection between self-awareness and conscious parenting.
Whether you’re a current or future parent who’s done the inner work — or you’re just beginning your self-development journey — this conversation will give you practical tools, powerful insights, and a deeper understanding of how to raise emotionally resilient, self-aware kids. And some of the tips are NOT what you would expect!
We cover: → When and how to start teaching self-awareness → The biggest mistake even mindful parents make → Tech, toddlers, and what actually harms your child’s brain → The parenting style that builds confident, grounded humans → Why your personal healing does impact your kids — and how to use it wisely
👶 This one’s for parents who want to break cycles, raise better humans, and stay true to themselves in the process.

      <description>Welcome to Day 5 of your 5-Day Life Audit.
his series is designed to help you pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters — so you can move forward with clarity and intention.

You’ll walk away with:
– Clear prompts to reflect on your daily reality
– A simple action step to reset or improve
– A mindset shift to support long-term change
This is more than a productivity check-in — it’s a realignment with who you’re becoming.

      <title>Day 4/5: This Hidden Chaos Is Draining Your Energy</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-day-life-audit-for-alignment-structure-simplicity-day-4of5</link>
      <description>Welcome to Day 4 of your 5-Day Life Audit.
This series is designed to help you pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters — so you can move forward with clarity and intention.
In today’s episode, we’re focusing on:
👉 Taking inventory of your physical environment — and how it’s either supporting or sabotaging your energy. You’ll be challenged to refresh your space so it reflects the clarity, focus, or peace you want to create.
You’ll walk away with:
– Clear prompts to reflect on your daily reality
– A simple action step to reset or improve
– A mindset shift to support long-term change
This is more than a productivity check-in — it’s a realignment with who you’re becoming.

      <description>Welcome to Day 3 of your 5-Day Life Audit.
This series is designed to help you pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters — so you can move forward with clarity and intention.

You’ll walk away with:
– Clear prompts to reflect on your daily reality
– A simple action step to reset or improve
– A mindset shift to support long-term change
This is more than a productivity check-in — it’s a realignment with who you’re becoming.

      <title>Day 2/5: Your Habits Are Secretly Controlling You...</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-day-life-audit-for-alignment-structure-simplicity-day-2of5</link>
      <description>Welcome to Day 2 of your 5-Day Life Audit.
This series is designed to help you pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters — so you can move forward with clarity and intention.
In today’s episode, we’re focusing on:
👉 Taking a deep look at your current habits — which ones support your growth, and which ones might be silently holding you back. You’ll leave with simple steps to reinforce the good and gently release the rest.
You’ll walk away with:
– Clear prompts to reflect on your daily reality– A simple action step to reset or improve– A mindset shift to support long-term change
This is more than a productivity check-in — it’s a realignment with who you’re becoming.

      <title>Most People Get Confidence Completely Wrong...</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-powerful-lessons-on-how-to-be-more-confident</link>
      <description>Want to feel more confident in your everyday life, work, or relationships? 
In this special compilation episode, I’m sharing 5 powerful confidence lessons shared by past guests — insights that I wish I heard years ago. These aren’t your typical surface-level tips. Each one is a mindset shift that quietly changes everything.
Whether you struggle with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or just want to show up more powerfully, these guest moments will help you build real, lasting confidence from the inside out.
🔑 In this episode, you’ll hear:

What confident people actually do differently

Why backing yourself is more important than being perfect

How to let go of the fear of being seen

The surprising mindset that builds unshakable self-worth

Real stories that prove confidence is built — not born


🎧 These are 5 standout moments you’ll want to revisit anytime you need a boost.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-stop-losing-yourself-in-relationships-haifa-beseisso</link>
      <description>If you’ve ever found yourself shrinking to fit into love, questioning if you’re too much, or feeling lost in your relationships — this episode with Haifa Beseisso will hit home. ❤️‍🔥
We unpack how real self love isn’t just about bubble baths or affirmations — it’s about choosing yourself even when it’s uncomfortable. Haifa shares her powerful story of unlearning cultural conditioning, redefining self-worth, and how that inner work transformed her relationships.
👉 In this episode:

Why we lose ourselves in love — and how to stop

What self love really looks like (and the biggest misconceptions)

Dating with clarity, standards, and self-awareness

Being “too much,” being “picky,” and being fully you


How to open up without abandoning yourself


If you’ve been stuck in relationship patterns that drain you or are afraid to take up space in love — this conversation will help you reconnect with your truth.

In this empowering episode, I sit down with award-winning artist, entrepreneur, and mum Layla Kardan, who shares her powerful story of breaking cultural expectations, walking away from the “safe” path, and choosing a life aligned with her true calling.

✨ The truth about manifesting vs. doing the work
✨ Redefining success, motherhood, and building a life that fits you
This episode is for anyone feeling unfulfilled, stuck, or afraid to make a change — but knows deep down that more is meant for them.

      <title>These ‘Healthy Habits’ Will Backfire — Nutritionist Layla Al-Naif Explains Why</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/these-healthy-habits-will-backfire-nutritionist-layla-al-nai</link>
      <description>Think you’re doing everything right — eating clean, avoiding junk, trying all the wellness trends — but still feel bloated, tired, or stuck? You’re not alone. In this episode, leading nutritionist Layla Al-Naif joins us to unpack the hidden ways your healthy habits might actually be backfiring — and what to do instead.
This is not about restrictive diets or fear-based rules. It’s about helping you understand:

Why fad diets often fail to create real, lasting change 

How cheat meals mess with your gut and mindset more than you realise 

What your gut actually needs to function well 

Why eating “clean” doesn’t always mean eating right 

How to build balanced meals that support your energy — even when you're busy 


If you’re:

Always bloated, even on a “clean” diet

Feeling low on energy despite eating well

Confused about what’s actually healthy

Craving a simpler, more sustainable approach to food


...this episode will help you reset your thinking and feel better — without the overwhelm. Simplified no BS advice from Layla to get your nutrition on track!

      <itunes:summary>Think you’re doing everything right — eating clean, avoiding junk, trying all the wellness trends — but still feel bloated, tired, or stuck? You’re not alone. In this episode, leading nutritionist Layla Al-Naif joins us to unpack the hidden ways your healthy habits might actually be backfiring — and what to do instead.
This is not about restrictive diets or fear-based rules. It’s about helping you understand:

Why fad diets often fail to create real, lasting change 

How cheat meals mess with your gut and mindset more than you realise 

What your gut actually needs to function well 

Why eating “clean” doesn’t always mean eating right 

How to build balanced meals that support your energy — even when you're busy 


If you’re:

Always bloated, even on a “clean” diet

Feeling low on energy despite eating well

Confused about what’s actually healthy

Craving a simpler, more sustainable approach to food


...this episode will help you reset your thinking and feel better — without the overwhelm. Simplified no BS advice from Layla to get your nutrition on track!

      <title>Break This One Habit and Watch Your Self-Worth Transform w Davina Rankin</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/break-this-one-habit-and-watch-your-self-worth-transform-w-d</link>
      <description>If you've ever felt like your worth depends on what you do, how you look, or who approves of you — you're not alone. In this raw and empowering conversation, Davina Rankin opens up about her journey of chasing external validation through modelling, relationships, and perfectionism… and what it took to finally feel enough without it.
We dive deep into:
✨ The habit that keeps you stuck in cycles of not-enoughness
✨ Why external validation feels so addictive — and how to stop relying on it✨ The emotional shift that comes from choosing yourself first
✨ How motherhood, celibacy, and solitude helped Davina reclaim her worth
This episode is a MUST-listen if you’re tired of seeking approval, performing for love, or feeling like you constantly have to prove yourself. It’s time to break the cycle and remember: your worth isn't something you earn — it's something you own.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/overwhelmed-by-gut-health-nutrition-heres-what-you-actually-</link>
      <description>If you’ve ever felt confused by food labels, overwhelmed by gut health advice, or unsure which supplements are actually worth it — this episode is for you. 
We sit down with Lisa Baker, a dermal therapist turned nutritionist and supplement product developer, to demystify what’s really worth paying attention to when it comes to nutrition. From breaking down misleading food label claims to understanding the connection between gut health and overall wellbeing, Lisa shares practical, no-stress tips to help you make more confident and informed choices.
✨ You’ll learn:
– How to actually read food labels without getting lost
– What ingredients to watch out for (even in “clean” products)
– When supplements can support your diet — and when they’re unnecessary– Why gut health matters more than you think
– How to build a realistic, balanced approach to eating
This is your no-BS guide to gut health and nutrition — grounded, practical, and empowering.

      <description>Ever feel like you should be further ahead by now? Like no matter how much you do, it still doesn’t feel like enough?
In today’s episode, I’m walking you through 8 powerful signs that you’re actually doing far better than you give yourself credit for. If you’ve been doubting your progress, stuck in self-comparison, or just feeling behind in life — this one’s for you.
💡 You’ll walk away feeling:
Reassured you’re on the right path (even if it doesn’t look like it)
- Validated in the quiet progress you have made
- Clearer on what growth really looks like in this season
- Let this episode be your reminder: you are not behind — you’re building.

      <title>The REAL Reason Progress Isn't Making You Feel Better w Annalie Howling</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/the-real-reason-progress-isnt-making-you-feel-better-w-annal</link>
      <description>🚨 Trigger Warning: This episode includes a discussion of self-harm. Please take care while listening.
You’re doing everything right — checking the boxes, reaching your goals, and growing on paper. But deep down, something still feels off.
Why doesn’t the progress stick? Why does every achievement feel good… but only for a moment?
In this episode, we uncover how shame often hides beneath the surface of high achievement — quietly driving your need to succeed, be the “good girl,” or live up to others’ expectations.
🔑 We cover:
* How shame subtly drives high achievers without them realising it
* Why your wins don’t land the way you thought they would
* The pressure to be the “good girl” — and what it’s costing you
* What to do when your identity no longer feels like it fits
* Friendship breakups, saying no, and reclaiming space for the real you
If you’ve ever felt like your life looks perfect but doesn’t feel like yours, this conversation will help you reconnect with the version of you that feels truly aligned.
💭 You might not even realise shame is the root — but if your progress feels empty or fleeting, this might be your missing piece.

      <itunes:summary>🚨 Trigger Warning: This episode includes a discussion of self-harm. Please take care while listening.
You’re doing everything right — checking the boxes, reaching your goals, and growing on paper. But deep down, something still feels off.
Why doesn’t the progress stick? Why does every achievement feel good… but only for a moment?
In this episode, we uncover how shame often hides beneath the surface of high achievement — quietly driving your need to succeed, be the “good girl,” or live up to others’ expectations.
🔑 We cover:
* How shame subtly drives high achievers without them realising it
* Why your wins don’t land the way you thought they would
* The pressure to be the “good girl” — and what it’s costing you
* What to do when your identity no longer feels like it fits
* Friendship breakups, saying no, and reclaiming space for the real you
If you’ve ever felt like your life looks perfect but doesn’t feel like yours, this conversation will help you reconnect with the version of you that feels truly aligned.
💭 You might not even realise shame is the root — but if your progress feels empty or fleeting, this might be your missing piece.

      <description>You can feel it — there’s more for you. More alignment. More purpose. More clarity. But no matter how hard you try… you feel stuck.
In this powerful episode with Rochelle Fox, we unpack what’s really going on when you’re ready for more but can’t seem to move forward.
 This isn’t about pushing harder — it’s about finally understanding what’s been blocking you… and unlocking what comes next.
We explore: 
🔓 How to move from stuck to self-led 
🧭 The mindset shifts that create clarity and momentum 
🧠 What your resistance and discomfort are actually trying to show you
✨ How to learn &amp; grow from your triggers
💬 How to reconnect with your inner voice when you feel out of touch 
🔥 Why this might be your turning point 
If you’ve been craving more but can’t figure out how to get it… this is the unlock you’ve been waiting for.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/thinking-of-quitting-your-job-these-7-signs-say-get-out</link>
      <description>Feeling drained, stuck, or like you're just going through the motions at work? In this episode, we’re diving into the 7 clear (and often ignored) signs that it's time to walk away — even if everything looks “fine” on paper.
Whether you're feeling burnt out, undervalued, or like you've simply outgrown your current role, this conversation will give you the clarity (and nudge) you’ve been waiting for.
✨ Expect to hear: 
• The emotional and physical red flags you're probably brushing off
• Why staying could be costing you more than you think
• Practical steps to take if one (or more) of these signs hit home
💭 If even ONE of these signs resonates... it’s time to listen in.

      <title>She Finally Stopped Fighting Ageing &amp; Did THIS Instead — Here’s What Happened Next</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/she-finally-stopped-fighting-ageing-did-this-instead-heres-w</link>
      <description>In this empowering episode, Erika sits down with Luisa Dunn — a model, photographer, and advocate for age positivity— to explore why she stopped fighting the ageing process and embraced a new narrative around beauty, self-worth, and expression.
From the pressures of anti-ageing culture to the emotional and financial cost of “looking young,” Luisa shares her powerful journey of unlearning societal standards and reclaiming her identity. This episode will challenge everything you’ve been taught about ageing, especially if you’re in your 20s or 30s and already feeling the pressure to maintain your looks.

      <itunes:summary>In this empowering episode, Erika sits down with Luisa Dunn — a model, photographer, and advocate for age positivity— to explore why she stopped fighting the ageing process and embraced a new narrative around beauty, self-worth, and expression.
From the pressures of anti-ageing culture to the emotional and financial cost of “looking young,” Luisa shares her powerful journey of unlearning societal standards and reclaiming her identity. This episode will challenge everything you’ve been taught about ageing, especially if you’re in your 20s or 30s and already feeling the pressure to maintain your looks.

      <title>Why Ambitious Women Feel Guilt — And What to Do About It w Jacqui Kingswell</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-you-still-feel-guilty-even-when-youre-winning-w-jacqui-k</link>
      <description>You're doing everything right — chasing your goals, building the life you dreamed of, maybe even raising a family along the way. So why does it still feel like you're falling short?
In this episode, I sit down with Jacqui Kingswell, co-founder of the global platform The Pilates Class, to explore the emotional tug-of-war that ambitious women face daily — guilt, burnout, and the pressure to “have it all.” From starting a business during lockdown to navigating motherhood while scaling to 118 countries, Jackie opens up about the hidden cost of doing it all, and how she redefined balance on her own terms.
We dive into:
💭 The guilt no one talks about: between motherhood, ambition &amp; identity
🔥 What burnout actually looks like when you're high-functioning
🧠 How to stop tying your worth to productivity
🌿 A refreshing new approach to balance that embraces imperfection
💬 The truth about “having it all” — and why it’s not the goal
Whether you're chasing goals, raising a family, or just trying to keep it together — this one’s for you.

But when you try to wake up early, it maybe doesn't feel right for you — and you’re left wondering:
👉 “Why isn’t this working for me?”
👉 “Am I just not disciplined enough?”
👉 “Is everyone else wired differently?”
In this episode, we dive into the real truth behind the 5AM hype — and why trying to force yourself into someone else’s routine might be holding you back. If you’ve ever felt like you’re failing at early mornings, this one's for you.
You’re not broken. You just haven’t been told this yet.

      <title>Your Old Life is Keeping You Stuck—Here’s HOW to Move On w Najwa Zebian</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/your-old-life-is-keeping-you-stuckheres-how-to-move-on</link>
      <description>Are you holding onto a version of yourself that no longer fits?
Change is uncomfortable—but staying the same is even worse. If you feel stuck, lost, or resistant to moving forward, this episode will help you understand why your old life won’t let you go and how to finally break free.
🚨 In this conversation, with Najwa Zebian we explore:
 ✔️ Why change feels so hard and why we resist it  ✔️ The misconception of resilience—are you truly strong or just afraid?  ✔️ How to deal with people who want you to stay the same ✔️ The bonds that keep you inauthentic—and how to identify them  ✔️ Practical tips for managing guilt when you start to change 
🔑 The truth? Your past is comfortable, but your future is waiting. 
If you’ve been struggling to let go of old habits, toxic relationships, or even an identity that no longer serves you, this episode is for you.

      <description>🚨 Your thoughts are shaping your reality—whether you realize it or not. But what if I told you that your mind has been secretly working against you? There are 8 toxic mindsets that keep you stuck, limit your potential, and stop you from making real progress. Most people don’t even realize they’re trapped by these beliefs, but they are the biggest reason why change feels impossible.
In this video, I’m breaking down exactly why these mindsets are so dangerous and, more importantly, how you can rewire your thinking to create real transformation. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by slow progress, self-doubt, or the fear of taking action—this is the video you need to watch.

🚨 We’ve been told women can "have it all"—but is that really true? Or is it just another impossible standard?
For years, women have been expected to balance career, family, ambition, and personal happiness—all while navigating pressure, guilt, and burnout. But at what cost? In this episode, I’m unpacking the truth about whether women can really have it all, why this question even exists, and how we can redefine success on our own terms.
💭 Is “having it all” even possible? Or have we been sold a lie? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
📌 What You’ll Take Away From This Video:
✔️ The hidden cost of trying to "do it all"✔️ How I personally redefined success after leaving corporate✔️ How to create a career &amp; life that actually aligns with YOU in 3 steps

      <title>Escape The Prison of Your Own Mind – "How I Finally Broke Free" with Osher Günsberg</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/the-prison-of-your-own-mind-how-to-finally-break-free-with-o</link>
      <description>In this powerful conversation, Osher Günsberg opens up about the mental prison we unknowingly create for ourselves—how our thoughts, fears, and habits keep us stuck in cycles we can’t seem to break. From the hidden pressures of success to the struggle of identity, addiction, and relationships, we explore what it truly takes to break free.
We uncover:
* The illusion of control and how it fuels anxiety
* How addiction rewires your brain and keeps you trapped
* The mental loop of success that no one talks about
* What it takes to rewire your habits and create real change
* The challenges of navigating relationships while evolving
* The modern crisis of masculinity and what it means today
Osher shares his deeply personal journey—from battling anxiety and addiction to finding clarity, healing, and purpose. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt stuck, trapped in overthinking, or battling an invisible force that keeps you from the life you want.

      <title>You Can’t Inject Confidence (The Problem With Botox Culture) with Jadé Brycki</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/you-cant-inject-confidence-the-problem-w-botox-jade-tunchy</link>
      <description>In this episode, we dive into the dark side of beauty culture with influencer Jadé Brycki, exposing why women are more insecure than ever—despite having more "solutions" than ever.
🔥 Is Botox actually making women feel worse?
🔥 Why is ‘self-love’ turning into a never-ending cycle of self-fixing?
🔥 Who is profiting from your insecurity?
Jadé shares her unfiltered take on why Botox, fillers, and the pressure to look perfect aren’t just beauty choices—they’re a bandaid for deeper insecurities. But what happens when we stop questioning these choices? Are we robbing ourselves of the privilege to age? Are we running away from real confidence and self-growth?
We’re challenging everything you think you know about beauty, confidence, and self-worth. This episode might change the way you see yourself forever.

      <title>How to Succeed When No One Believes in You with Ellie Gonsalves</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-succeed-when-no-one-believes-in-you-w-ellie-gonsalves</link>
      <description>What do you do when everyone doubts you? When every door seems to close in your face? When the people around you don’t believe in your dreams? Ellie Gonsalves knows this struggle all too well. Before becoming an internationally successful model, every agency in Australia rejected her. Instead of giving up, she built her own path—on her own terms.
In this episode, Ellie opens up about:
✅ The rejection that almost broke her—but fueled her success
✅ How to stop waiting for permission and create your own opportunities
✅ Why tall poppy syndrome in Australia made her feel stuck
✅ The mindset shifts that helped her overcome self-doubt
✅ How to deal with negativity and keep growing despite resistance
If you’ve ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or doubted, this conversation will hit home. Success doesn’t come from waiting for approval—it comes from backing yourself, even when no one else does.

      <title>12 Week Year Goal Setting Method REVEALED</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/12-week-year-goal-setting-method-revealed</link>
      <description>Why do so many people set goals but never actually achieve them? The answer isn’t just about taking action—it’s about taking the right kind of action.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on why traditional yearly goal-setting often fails and how I’ve found a better way to turn big dreams into reality. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by massive goals (like running a 10k, saving $40k, or reading 12 books), this is for you.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
✅ The critical mistake most people make when setting goals (and how to avoid it)
✅ Why breaking your year into 4 mini-years can completely transform your results
✅ How to stop feeling stuck &amp; start making consistent, measurable progress
✅ A simple system to take your biggest goals &amp; make them actionable, practical, and achievable
✅ Plus, a bonus tip to keep your momentum strong &amp; avoid falling off track
Plus you’ll get a FREE 12 week year template to follow.
If you’re tired of setting goals only to lose steam a few weeks in, this episode will give you the tools to stay focused, motivated &amp; on track.

      <title>How to Make Adult Friendships &amp; Ditch "Default" Ones</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/why-you-struggle-to-make-friends-hold-onto-the-wrong-ones</link>
      <description>Adult friendships, why are they so hard? Are we looking at it the wrong way? Is it us, or is it that we are surrounded by toxic people? And what about those "default" friends that have been around for so long but don't really align with us anymore, how do we navigate those?
I had the same questions! So today I invited two friends of mine, Nimi &amp; Rhea to discuss these questions in detail. The 3 of us have had varying experiences with friendship and each bring some different thoughts and input to the topic! A jam packed episode with lots of practical tips you won't want to miss.

      <title>How to Escape the Rat Race WITHOUT Quitting Your 9-5</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-escape-the-rat-race-without-quitting-your-9-5</link>
      <description>Do you feel trapped in a 9-5 you dread, dreaming of escaping the rat race but can’t afford to quit your job? I've been there. It's a downward spiral of low self value and constant questioning of your life's purpose - you feel like your soul is being chipped away by the minute.
In this podcast, I'm going to walk you through a 6 step process that will change how you view your job to create a life you love—without even having to leave your current job. I’m going to share with you how I went from feeling unsatisfied and stuck in my job as a corporate lawyer, to finding &amp; completely changing how I felt about my career. You don't need to feel stuck because of a job you don't love. Reframing how you think &amp; feel about it is your key.

      <description>Today I am joined by a remarkable woman who is a living example of how we have the power to heal ourselves. She shares today how she got over her own pain story which prevented her from living her truth, to how she did everything doctors told her she would never be able to do.
Expect a deep conversation on how to heal yourself, tools such as emotional mapping, how to protect your time, how to stop manifesting illness, the role of vitamin G and getting to know who you are underneath your pain.

      <title>How to Stop Being a Limited Version of Yourself | Naila Nazer</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/gizlan</link>
      <description>You, yes you, deserve more! You deserve an unlimited life where you are not trapped by your thoughts, past experiences or traumas. Today, Naila shares her experience of rock bottom, feeling trapped in a deep depression where she was questioning whether life was, worth it. Through her own inner strength &amp; resilience, she reframed what was a string of events that could've defined her, into the woman you hear today. She shares how sky diving helped her face head on her inner dark thoughts and we also discuss having boundaries with social media as a necessary part to keep us connected to ourselves. 
I know you'll love everything about today's conversation - don't forget to share it with someone who will love it too!

I love having conversations around money because it is our currency to freedom over our time - so learning how to make more of it, amplify what we have and use it wisely, is a secret key to balance!

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/saana</link>
      <description>This episode is basically a TOOLKIT to confidence! Today I am joined by Saana Azzam for a really interesting and deep conversation on all things confidence - from taking a career leap (yes, even if you are just slightly unhappy), to setting boundaries, to pitching your value - each of these play a role everyday to build your SELF CONFIDENCE. It's not just about the big moments, but the small 1%, the constant reps we give and prove to ourselves, that build true CONFIDENCE.
(00:00) Introduction
(05:34) Advice for making a career leap
(10:54) Exercise to self reflect 
(11:42) Public speaking tools for everyday life
(17:41) Should you have an alter ego for confidence?
(21:23) Authenticity Radar
(24:10) Less human in the corporate world
(27:50) Navigating discomfort
(35:12) Networking tips &amp; scripts
(39:35) Rule of Reciprocity
(41:28) Don’t be tacky!

      <title>How to take back control over your life &amp; STOP having a victim mentality</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/season-4-ep-1</link>
      <description>Tired of life feeling like it's just happening to you? Feel powerless over events? The truth is, we can all feel like victims of something in life... the job we don’t love, the office we don’t want to be in, the relationship or friendship we are stuck in, the financial situation we find ourselves in - right? I’ve been there you’ve been there but dwelling in that stuck-ness gets us no where!
But what if I told you there was one single quote, a mindset shift, that changed my life the second I heard it. What if I told you that after this episode, your life will also be immediately changed should you choose to embrace the quote fully? Trust me when I say it is possible and you’ll have to listen to this episode to find out what it is!
(00:00) Life changing reframe
(11:34) 6 ways you will see this reframe in your life

      <title>Self growth challenge: Become your best self in 21 days</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/self-growth-challenge-become-your-best-self-in-21-days</link>
      <description>It's challenge o'clock! Our focus for the next 21 days? Becoming your best self through finding habits that are going to create the most balance and impact in your daily life. 
The reason I wanted to throw you a challenge with varied habits, is because we often get stuck in the same routines and rarely stop to consider habits that are no longer serving us or experiment with habits that could make a world of difference in our day, week, and ultimately life!
The idea isn’t to adopt EVERY single thing you try, it’s to notice what really creates the most impact on your energy and overall enjoyment of life and consider making space for that in your routine - after all, these habits will be best felt after consistent use (now we are just finding them)!

      <itunes:summary>It's challenge o'clock! Our focus for the next 21 days? Becoming your best self through finding habits that are going to create the most balance and impact in your daily life. 
The reason I wanted to throw you a challenge with varied habits, is because we often get stuck in the same routines and rarely stop to consider habits that are no longer serving us or experiment with habits that could make a world of difference in our day, week, and ultimately life!
The idea isn’t to adopt EVERY single thing you try, it’s to notice what really creates the most impact on your energy and overall enjoyment of life and consider making space for that in your routine - after all, these habits will be best felt after consistent use (now we are just finding them)!

Her story will inspire you to take the next steps towards a life that is fulfilling and rich to you! We also debunk work-life balance, boundaries and theres a BONUS fun chat in here about earning a role for your worth and not your GENDER.

(05:45) Signs you are not fulfilled in work 
(09:57) the danger of your dissatisfaction
(10:55) Stop looking for your passion
(19:33) What does work-life balance look like?
(26:08) Mistakes with life balance
(31:39) Saying no (even to opportunity)

      <description>today I am going to break down why you seriously NEED hobbies, and why they actually make you more productive (yes even if that "takes" time from what you're working on) - trust me on this one. We wouldn't be sharing in this chat together today if I hadn't adopted this philosophy and started this podcast as my hobby!
I'm also going to take you through how to find your hobbies if you feel lost for what they might look like.

(06:25) Unspoken aspect of having hobbies
(10:09) How do I find hobbies!?

      <title>Have you heard of this psychological defence mechanism? Unpacking "projection". </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/kdjns</link>
      <description>One of the most powerful things I have EVER learned about in therapy is the concept of Projection. It's a psychological (and subconscious) defense mechanism- but what is it protecting? Can we know if we are projecting? What does it look like if someone is projecting on to us? How can we stay clear of someone's projections?
All these I explore &amp; discuss in today's episode! 
(00:00) Introduction 
(02:00) FREE GIFT: Podcast Marathon Guide
(03:56) What is Projection? 
(07:39) Signs you are Projecting
(12:04) Signs someone is Projecting on to you
(16:26) How to deal with Projection
(18:01) Two Steps

      <title>How do men think about authenticity, emotions and communication? </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/sheen-gurrib</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by two men who deeply inspire me through the work they are doing for men in the mental health space- that is Kori &amp; Manny from Mentality. Today we talk about some topics for the first time on the show - masculinity, the male experience with emotions (and stereotypes therein), what it means to be a strong woman who embraces the support of her man and balancing ambition with health. Understanding the strengths and differences in men and women can facilitate a stronger bond in a romantic relationships and in general, stronger relationships built on communication.
I LOVED this chat and the way it made me think about certain things differently - full range of topics, each to get you thinking about your own perspective!
(00:00) Introduction
(07:26) Can we have sustainable success?
(13:23) Masculinity &amp; Emotions
(16:17) Detachment 
(19:11) Authenticity  
(24:57) has there been a decline in masculinity? 
(40:05) how do men feel best supported 
(45:29) Habits to enhance connection with your partner

      <title>6 signs you're doing better than you think you are</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/btsdxfgdg</link>
      <description>This podcast is dedicated to anyone like me, who struggles from time to time with their self worth in moments where you are not “productive”, producing “out put” etc to remind you that the way we measure our worth can be so far from the things that actually show us our worth. 
Today I remind us both of 6 signs we are doing better than we think we are to help us ZOOM out and not get so caught up in the single measurable metrics we always tend to focus on! 
Check out the free 20min workshop on YouTube here!

      <itunes:summary>This podcast is dedicated to anyone like me, who struggles from time to time with their self worth in moments where you are not “productive”, producing “out put” etc to remind you that the way we measure our worth can be so far from the things that actually show us our worth. 
Today I remind us both of 6 signs we are doing better than we think we are to help us ZOOM out and not get so caught up in the single measurable metrics we always tend to focus on!

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/lamide</link>
      <description>Today we chat about a topic I've only discussed a handful of time, that is - MONEY! Love it, hate it, repelled by it want more of it? We all have our relationship with it and at the end of the day, need it to survive and live quintessentially in the modern world. This is why I wanted to get someone on who could speak to me (someone who has only recently started on her money journey and unpacking my beliefs around it) about common mistakes we can avoid, saving tips, investment ideas, mindset around money, the concept of lifestyle inflation and more! 
This episode is especially for anyone, like me, who wants more abundance via financial wealth in their life, but are battling some pre-existing ideas around your ability to have it and practical ways to achieve it!
(00:00) Introduction
(02:04) Upbringing &amp; Influences
(06:39) Advice to 18 year old self
(09:59) Mistakes &amp; Mindset with money
(13:24) Lifestyle Inflation

      <title>5 ways I’m embracing being a softer woman (as a strength)</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/soft-woman</link>
      <description>Strong women 📢  THIS ONE'S FOR YOU!! In an era and time where as a woman, I am privileged with the opportunities I have, I can't help but reflect on how business + career puts us in a very masculine, 'go go' type energy... I wondered whether finding outlets or ways to embrace my more flowy, feminine side, aka my 'softer' side, can actually be a strength - and decided, yes it could! 
Today's about reframing how we look at 'softness'. To me it's not weak or doesn't mean we lose ourselves, but rather a strength and opportunitiy to get in touch with ourselves in a deeper way - what do you think? Let me know after watching this!!
(00:00) Introduction &amp; Connect
(04:44) Forcing things
(06:28) Cues to look out for
(08:08) Learning from intuition
(08:53)  Intentions, intentions, intentions!
(09:58) Do this more than you speak
(11:00) Wrap up

      <title>Making self-compassion less cringy &amp; the science behind mindfulness with Dr Shauna Shapiro</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/shauna</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Dr Shauna Shapiro - best-selling author, clinical psychologist and internationally recognized expert in mindfulness and self-compassion.
There was no better topic to end our interviews this year other than mindfulness, intention setting and self compassion. Many of you like me may have found self-compassion really cringy or awkward, which is exactly why I wanted to get Dr Shauna on the show to take us through the practical impact of it (in the science we trust), to debunk many of the things I originally thought towards it. Get ready to hear some practical tips you can start applying today to boost not only self compassion, but your all round mindfulness which are going to be two essential tools to help you thrive in 2024!
We also chat through perfectionism (you know I'm guilty of and working on this) and tips for us perfectionists in goal setting for the new year in a healthy way! She shares her traumatic and dark experiences that completely shaped her life and mindset, time in monasteries, scientific findings that completely blew me out of the water and lastly but so important, INTENTIONS and INTENTION SETTING!!
This one is jam packed - don't miss it!

There was no better topic to end our interviews this year other than mindfulness, intention setting and self compassion. Many of you like me may have found self-compassion really cringy or awkward, which is exactly why I wanted to get Dr Shauna on the show to take us through the practical impact of it (in the science we trust), to debunk many of the things I originally thought towards it. Get ready to hear some practical tips you can start applying today to boost not only self compassion, but your all round mindfulness which are going to be two essential tools to help you thrive in 2024!
We also chat through perfectionism (you know I'm guilty of and working on this) and tips for us perfectionists in goal setting for the new year in a healthy way! She shares her traumatic and dark experiences that completely shaped her life and mindset, time in monasteries, scientific findings that completely blew me out of the water and lastly but so important, INTENTIONS and INTENTION SETTING!!
This one is jam packed - don't miss it!

      <title>5 questions to ask yourself before the end of 2023</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-questions-to-ask-yourself-before-the-end-of-2023</link>
      <description>We made it - the final month of 2023! Those of you who have been here for a while know I LOVE ending the year on a reflective episode. This reflection changes year on year and I intuitively create these based off how I'm feeling and what I've been speaking about with you all.
A moment for grounding, pause and reflection to gear you up for 2024! I hope you enjoy it.
ALSO PS, this won't actually be the last ep, there will be an interview next week but it's the last solo ep!
To keep you busy until we are back in Jan you can check out this years most popular and loved episodes:

6 realisations you need to STOP people pleasing and learn to say no

      <title>Unpacking mental blocks to doing nothing (before the holidays) &amp; thoughts on alcohol/intuition</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/unpacking-mental-blocks-to-doing-nothing-before-the-holidays</link>
      <description>In this episode I share some honest thoughts about my struggle doing nothing and the internal beliefs that have honestly blocked me from embracing that time. Ahead of the festive season/holidays this is so important because how many times have you gotten to the holidays and either (a) gotten sick or (b) been in such a whirlwind of busyness that by the time you're on break, you're too exhausted to enjoy anything - not this year!
I'll share some conscious tips I'm going to start to try and embrace now from early December to enjoy my holidays in a more intentional way PLUS I share some new found revelations I had with the impact of alcohol on my intuition.
Great to listen to get you primed and intention pre-holiday season!

      <title>8 realisations from my ongoing struggle to enjoy the process</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/8-realisations-from-my-ongoing-struggle-enjoy-the-process</link>
      <description>As a self-proclaimed A-type personality with a penchant for ticking off to-do lists, I've grappled with finding joy in the journey and find myself fixating on the destination only. From tying my self-worth to productivity to crafting stories around external outcomes, I've been my own barrier in embracing the present moments that make up the journey. This episode is a raw and honest exploration of my struggles, with the hope that these realizations offer perspective and comfort to anyone facing a similar internal battle. Remember, you're not alone in this journey called life.
ALSO - BIG NEWS FROM ME! I will be speaking at Dubai Active on November 25th at 11am on the Wellness Talks stage - you can get your tickets here. Don't forget to say hi if you are there!

      <title>Breaking mindset barriers for a high achiever's edge with Gaj Ravichandra</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/breaking-mindset-barriers-for-a-high-achievers-edge-with-gaj</link>
      <description>In this episode, you will gain practical insights into the factors that shape your journey to success. We kick off with a deep dive into identifying and conquering mindset blocks, arming you with strategies to overcome your limiting beliefs. You'll discover the power of motivated skills that drive both your passion and your career, as well as practical advice on how to balance your job for financial stability while pursuing your side passions. We'll explore the four types of intelligence and how to leverage them in your life, uncover the practical applications of the Johari Window for self-awareness, and equip yourself with actionable steps to handle constructive criticism. Plus, we reveal the single most powerful skill for achieving high performance in your chosen field.
This episode is your roadmap to practical personal and professional growth as a high performer. I am joined by Gaj Ravichandra who grew up curious about success, but his fascination was less about how he could attain it, and more about decoding it. How did some people go on to achieve greatness? As a young Psychology graduate, he found the answer – mindset. He now works as a Peak Performance Coach, help more people define their own version of ‘success’ and also help them get there - all things I am excited to unpack today.

Plus, we reveal the single most powerful skill for achieving high performance in your chosen field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;This episode is your roadmap to practical personal and professional growth as a high performer. I am joined by Gaj Ravichandra who grew up curious about success, but his fascination was less about how he could attain it, and more about decoding it. How did some people go on to achieve greatness? As a young Psychology graduate, he found the answer – mindset. He now works as a Peak Performance Coach, help more people define their own version of ‘success’ and also help them get there - all things I am excited to unpack today.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can connect (aka stalk) Gaj on Linked In &lt;a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/gaj-ravichandra/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;JOIN OUR &lt;a href="https://t.me/+FwZELsF-OhdkOTNl" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;FREE GROUP CHAT HERE&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://emojipedia.org/party-popper/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;🎉&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until next time,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;P.S.

      <title>8 ways you might be blocking your balance</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/8-ways-you-might-be-sabotaging-your-balance</link>
      <description>We regularly discuss how to find balance, but what about ways we might be blocking ourselves from finding it?
Today I share 8 ways I have in the past blocked my own balance, which you might be doing unknowingly right now. The self-awareness you'll gain from this episode will truly be powerful, as some of the ways we block our balance, appear to be things that work in our favour - but don't!

      <title>How to feel worthy: overachievement &amp; work boundaries w Hannah Kissel </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-feel-worthy-overachievers-work-boundaries-w-hannah-ki</link>
      <description>Resonate with the need to achieve in order to feel worthy? Find yourself caught in a bit of a manic loop to overachieve? And, find it hard to set boundaries at work? Today we unpack all of this to work through and understand your self worth.
Today I am joined by Hannah Kissel, a life coach who works with high performers to build healthier relationships with themselves and find meaning and impact in their careers. She has worked with leaders from LinkedIn, Docusign, Uber, Gartner, Amazon and many more.
We delve into the complexities of self-compassion, the importance of setting boundaries, and the negative impacts of overachievement on one's well-being. You can expect practical advice on these critical aspects of personal growth and balance in life and work.
You don't want to miss this one! Share with someone who will love it too.

      <description>I am very much a routine person and I’m going to bet that since you’re a listening of the show, you are too. But when are our routines more helpful than harmful? How can we be sure our routine is right for us, and we aren’t just forcing something we think we should be doing? We are going to explore this and more in today’s episode.

      <title>How to align your life with your authentic self with Olena Mytruk</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/olena-myrtruk</link>
      <description>Are you ready to re-align your life? Today we learn about how to identify our core values, as a starting place, so that whatever next job, hobby or relationship we pursue, is aligned to who we are and who we want to be. We were never taught how to identify these at school, or anywhere really, so today's episode is packed with practical tips on how to find your core values to make aligned decisions.
To explore this, I am joined by Olena Mytruk who is a life design coach and mentor, as well as creator of the Breverie Life Design System. Olena helps busy modern professional and entrepreneurial women thrive in both work and life – by helping them design their lives around who they are, what they believe, and what they want to achieve. Her mission and ours are closley aligned and so it is a pleasure to have her on the show today.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-practical-ways-to-deal-with-uncertainty-in-your-life</link>
      <description>Are you currently experiencing uncertainty, or the the unknown in any aspect of your life? Maybe it’s your next move? Or a big life shift… IF yes, Then it’s likely you are experiencing feelings of anxiety, frustration, and even fear about what lies ahead. It's absolutely okay to feel overwhelmed by the weight of unpredictability, and I want you to know that your feelings are valid and I see you, because I’ve been there so many times.
This episode is dedicated to sharing practical ways we can deal with these waves or periods of uncertainty because often and if you’re in the midst of it, it’s hard to think in any other way. By the end of this episode, you’ll have at LEAST one strategy you can apply as soon as it's finished, to help you either embrace or move through the discomfort or uncomfortable feelings that are presenting for you right now.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/understanding-the-psychology-behind-your-dietfood-patterns-w</link>
      <description>Today's guest is is a clinical nutritionist, hypnotherapist and an expert in eating behavior - Jiordana Saade. She focuses on the brain-body connection and believes if the body is holding onto weight, there are imbalances in both the mental state, and the physiological body. Today we uncover some of those psychological factors and thoughts that impact our relationship with food and learn a lot about how our brain works. I really learned a lot in this interview!
We break down the need for "good/bad" food labels, whether intolerances are just psychological, how to be proactive with eating habits, some interesting new studies and other fun facts!
(00:00) Introduction
(05:21) When would you need a food psychologist?
(09:04) Psychological factors behind eating habits
(12:20) are allergies psychological?
 (16:16) Is your intolerance real?
(20:42) buffering around stressful periods with food
(23:29) Is coffee good or bad?
(26:09) Mind Milkshake Theory
(29:13) Reframing good/bad food

      <title>How to reconnect with yourself &amp; live out your greatness with Sarah Grynberg</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/finding-your-greatness-among-different-roles-identities-and-</link>
      <description>Host of top-rated podcast, A Life of Greatness, Sarah Grunberg sits down with me today to share her learnings on what inner alchemy is required to live a happy, fulfilling life of greatness. 
In this episode, Sarah discusses her approach to balancing work and family life, acknowledging that she may not always have as much time for her kids due to work commitments, but she emphasizes that when she does spend time with them, she is fully present and engaged. We talk about the fallacy of perfectionism, "radical acceptance" and how trying to achieve perfect work-life balance can lead to feeling guilty and overwhelmed. She shares just how she achieves this instead!
She of course also shares her definition of greatness and helps us reflect on what brings us joy - perfect for anyone looking for side hustle or hobby! 
Links to Sarah's IG &amp; Podcast can be found here on her website.
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

In this episode, Sarah discusses her approach to balancing work and family life, acknowledging that she may not always have as much time for her kids due to work commitments, but she emphasizes that when she does spend time with them, she is fully present and engaged. We talk about the fallacy of perfectionism, "radical acceptance" and how trying to achieve perfect work-life balance can lead to feeling guilty and overwhelmed. She shares just how she achieves this instead!
She of course also shares her definition of greatness and helps us reflect on what brings us joy - perfect for anyone looking for side hustle or hobby! 
Links to Sarah's IG &amp; Podcast can be found here on her website.

      <description>Today's episode is for anyone wanting more time for what they love + needing a tangible and pragmatic way to prioritise themselves.
We will chat about the importance of having clear priorities and how to be flexible with them. I share my two lists of priorities: non-negotiables and wants, which will ensure you are always making time for the things that are most important to you, even when life gets chaotic.
HOWEVER, because life is unpredictable and things don't always go according to plan, we need to have some flexibility with these often 'rigid' non-negotiables. Tune in for some tips for creating and using the two lists of priorities.

      <title>What is the difference between ego &amp; confidence? w Amy Klein</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/amy-klein-on-finding-your-confidence</link>
      <description>Do you want to build confidence and gain a newfound power? Then tune in to today's episode!
Amy Klein was tired of seeing the disparities between men and women after working many years in the corporate world. She became frustrated with the lack of educational resources to instil courage and confidence and has since cofounded The Courageous Brand, a safe space for women to learn how to be confident and how to know their worth. Today, Amy joins our host Erika to talk about all things confidence - what it is, what it looks like, and how we can all achieve a new level of confidence in our lives. She provides us with some great practical tips and insights into why we might lack confidence and break down those barriers.
You can look forward to:
(01:00) Introduction
(01:39) The Courageous Brand
(04:10) Misconception about Confidence 
(07:59) Confidence Vs Egotism
(13:33) Building Confidence
(21:14) Feeling intimated by someone's confidence
(27:48) Final Comments and Links
Make sure to check out The Courageous Brand on Instagram or their website for more information!
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

      <title>How to know when conflict in a relationship is healthy or not</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/when-is-conflict-in-a-relationship-healthy-or-not</link>
      <description>Disagreements in relationships are normal and healthy, but how do we know then it is no longer healthy and how can we understand and learn to navigate ourselves in arguments to better our relationships? Tune in to find out!
Every single relationship in your life, whether romantic, friendship or business-related, will experience conflict and disagreements. It is impossible to expect that everyone is in agreement all the time. Unfortunately, this often leads to heated conversations, saying things you might not mean and not explaining yourself in the best way possible. In today's episode, we dive into how we can navigate these conflicts in your important relations and work through some tools and mindset shifts that you adopt to help your relationships remain happy and healthy.
You can look forward to:
(00:50) Introduction
(04:28) Open Communication
(05:13) Active Listening
(08:31) There’s no ‘I’ in Team
(10:20) Accountability
(14:42) Final Comments and Links
Don’t forget to complete this quick survey to help us rebrand The Balance Theory. We would absolutely love to hear your opinions and thoughts!

      <title>8 tips on how to curate a 'night' routine to optimise rest &amp; recovery</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/erikas-top-8-tips-for-creating-your-night-time-routine</link>
      <description>Do you want to optimise your sleep and wake up every morning feeling energised and ready for the day? Well, then it’s time to think about implementing a nighttime routine!
Many of us are big subscribers to a morning routine to start the day and get us feeling prepared to take on the day, but a nighttime routine can also help us to optimise our sleeping habits and better the consequent day. This routine can help our bodies to acknowledge and understand that it's time to wind down and prepare for bed, thus allowing us to fall deeper into our sleep.
Come along with us as we explore 8 amazing tips to help you generate a nighttime routine that’s suited to you:
(00:00) Introduction
(01:16) Why a nighttime routine?
(04:45) #1 BedTime 
(05:32) #2 Ritualise your routine 
(07:27) #3 Hydration
(08:25) #4 Set yourself up for tomorrow 
(09:59) #5 Light Exposure + #6 Technology timeout 
(13:23) #7 Word Vomit
(16:00) #8 Gentle music and meditation
(18:23) Recap and Links
Check out the Whoop device if you want to track your sleep and daily habits.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mindset-shift-to-be-able-to-say-no</link>
      <description>Sometimes we know we need to say no to our friends or family, to an outing or to that extra bit of work our boss is asking us to do, but we feel as though we cannot. We are constantly saying yes to people and things and feeling overwhelmed and unbalanced. 
In today’s episode, we explore times when we want and how to say no. We workshop through 3 different mindsets we often find drive our actions when saying yes, and shifting these to allow us to feel balanced. You can look forward to:
(01:10) Introduction

      <description>How are your 2023 goals so far? Have you managed to stay on track with your goals or have you forgotten all about them?
Coming up to February, we can sometimes find it hard to maintain and stay on track with the goals we set out for ourselves at the start of the year.

We focus on 3 main steps that will help you to realign your goals with your true desire and passion and thus, help you to achieve those goals this year.
You can look forward to:
(01:56) World Quitter's Day
(02:30) Fine-tuning your goals
(04:50) Step 1: What's your Burning Desire?
(09:08) Wanting vs. Immature wanting
(11:33) Step 2: Believing in yourself
(12:44) Step 3: Expecting success
(15:36) Patience is a virtue
(17:41) Parting tips &amp; comments

      <title>How to network &amp; mindset shifts you need to crush it </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-network-mindset-shifts-you-need-to-crush-it</link>
      <description>Networking is a highly requested topic from you all, so here it is! My tips on Networking - funnily, something I've had to recently do myself recently. I share with you guys a new space I am working in, tips on how I got started (from NEVER having networked before) and how I actually did it - from my why, who to approach, how to approach them and physically organising the catch up.
This episode is necessary NOT just if you're looking for new work, but if you want to be a key person in the space you're working in.
(00:00) My Networking recent experience
(06:01) Overview
(06:27) the ‘What’
(07:27) Who?
(10:06) You just need a breadcrumb
(11:35) But, where?!
(12:35) How do you reach out!?
(13:50) Final tips 
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

      <title>How to get comfortable outside of your comfort zone</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/how-to-get-comfortable-outside-of-the-comfort-zone-or-step-i</link>
      <description>Balancers, if growth is what you're here for, you NEED to find a way to embrace or push through the discomfort that comes with being out of your comfort zone.
Often we feel this and take that as a sign we are failing, or not ready to start, or that we should doubt ourselves BUT most of the time none of these are true. It's more that we are experiencing the unknown, something for the first time. Today I'm going to explore with you, how to push past the discomfort, use anchors to ground us and share a nice exercise I use to remind me of my WHY + DIRECTION!
(02:01) Step 1 Accepting discomfort 
(04:27) Step 2 the future you exercise
(08:54) Step 3 Find your anchor 
(11:56) Switch to the "best-case-scenario" 
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!
Until next time,

      <description>Today I am joined by Cristina Cataman, the host of the Catamania Podcast, online comedian and co-founder of a law firm in Canada.

(16:36) Why self doubt is selfish
(18:50) Tuning out external noise
(23:33) The link between balance and external noise
(26:30) Intuitive moments in life
(32:31) True meaning of success
So excited for you guys to hear this one! You can connect with Cristina on IG @cristinacataman or by checking out the podcast here.

      <title>Let's get real about Self Love: what it truly means &amp; how to do it</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/lets-get-real-about-self-love-what-it-means-how-to-practice-</link>
      <description>WARNING: You will never look at self love the same after listening to this episode.
Self love - it’s thrown around like a bit of a BUZZ word, but how do we actually do it? And what does it actually mean?
If you don't already realise that this can be your super power, you're in for a hella episode! Today I debunk the spas, facials &amp; 'self-care' activities often painted as the sweet picture of self love, and get to the core &amp; essence of what it truly means. PLUS I will share with you how to adopt it as a perspective, a mindset, so it's not something you need to allocate time in your week to do, like a chore on your list.
Reflective Qs to determine if you have self love

Do I speak kindly to myself and treat myself with compassion and respect?

Do I set boundaries and advocate for my own needs and desires?

Do I take care of my physical, emotional, and mental well-being?

Do I forgive myself for my mistakes and imperfections?

Do I embrace my unique qualities and strengths?

Do I allow myself to feel a full range of emotions, including happiness, sadness, anger, and joy?

Do I have a positive relationship with my body and practice self-acceptance?

Do I make time for self-care and prioritize my own well-being?


Journal Prompts to assess your level of Self Love at the end of the day

How did I speak to myself today? Was it kind and compassionate, or did I engage in self-criticism or negative self-talk?

Did I set boundaries and advocate for my own needs and desires today? If not, what can I do differently tomorrow?

How did I take care of my physical, emotional, and mental well-being today? What can I do to prioritize self-care tomorrow?

What mistakes or imperfections did I forgive myself for today? How did this help me feel more loving towards myself?

What unique qualities or strengths did I embrace today? How did this make me feel?

How did I allow myself to feel and express a full range of emotions today? What emotions did I experience, and how did I cope with them?

How did I feel about my body today? What self-care practices can I engage in to improve my relationship with my body?

What self-care activities did I do today? How did they make me feel?

Self love - it’s thrown around like a bit of a BUZZ word, but how do we actually do it? And what does it actually mean?
If you don't already realise that this can be your super power, you're in for a hella episode! Today I debunk the spas, facials &amp; 'self-care' activities often painted as the sweet picture of self love, and get to the core &amp; essence of what it truly means.

Reflective Qs to determine if you have self love

      <title>Michael Amster on micro-dosing mindfulness in 2023 </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/michael-amster-on-micro-dosing-mindfulness-in-2023</link>
      <description>If you find it hard to meditate, or make time for it, then you're going to ABSOLUTELY love this chat today.
Today I am joined by Michael Amster, a physician and faculty member at the Touro School of Medicine. He has twenty years of experience as a pain management specialist, been a student of meditation for over thirty years and is a certified yoga teacher. Today we dive into a recent discovery, something that is going to change the way you look at mindfulness for 2023 and beyond. Michael is going to explain the power of the A.W.E method including the science that backs it up, the three levels of consciousness, and how to achieve powerful results for both our physical and mental health in under 1 minute a day.
A.W.E's initiation
At the height of the pandemic, two trial groups embarked on a study through UC Berkeley to test a new method for “micro-dosing mindfulness.” One group was comprised of frontline healthcare workers; the other consisted of patients at a local medical center, as well as any of their friends and family who wished to participate. Almost immediately, both groups reported significant improvement in symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain—results that bore out over the course of the study and beyond. Jake Eagle, LPC and Michael Amster, MD, knew that they were on to something.
(00:00) Introduction of Guest
(04:34) Micro-dosing Mindfulness
(06:50) Study Results
(08:30) A.W.E introduced
(12:46) Saving time and practicing Mindfulness

(17:27) How to start practicing
(23:32) The Science of A.W.E
(26:44) How to know when you're experiencing A.W.E

      <title>Natalie Kuhn on taking mindfulness from a checklist to a way of being</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/natalie-kuhn-on-taking-mindfulness-from-a-checklist-to-a-way</link>
      <description>In this episode of The Balance Theory Podcast, we explore the intersection of mindfulness and movement with Natalie Kuhn, the Co-CEO and founding teacher of The class.
Natalie shares her insights on how mindful movement can help us to reconnect with our bodies and live more freely, and offers tips on how to maintain inner balance in moments of challenge - not only that, moments where we have competing areas of our life being challenged all at once. She also discusses the importance of making mindfulness a part of our daily lives, and the role of honesty in our journey towards self-discovery.

Tune in to learn more about the power of living mindfully and how it can help you to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.

      <description>It's your chance to have an impact on the podcast! We are currently taking feedback and input from every single one of you to help shape our vision and direction for 2023. If you have 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey, it would be INCREDIBLY appreciated + really helps us plan relevant and needed content. Click here to have your say!
Today's episode:
You are going to be so surprised how many things you do out of habit EVERY day that make you less productive. I know because I do them too! BUT as we know, awareness is key and I never leave you hanging with just the items, but also tips on how to actually stop doing them and change your day to day behaviour to get the most out of your work &amp; time. I would highly recommend selecting one habit at a time to work on, before adopting them all at once. Bear this in mind as you listen in - maybe rank them from most important to least important and work backwards so (a) you actually stick to the changes and (b) you don't get overwhelmed doing so.
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

      <title>The reason winners quit &amp; how to know when you need to</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/the-reason-winners-quit-how-to-know-when-you-need-to</link>
      <description>It's your chance to have an impact on the podcast! We are currently taking feedback and input from every single one of you to help shape our vision and direction for 2023.

Today's episode:
“If you quit on the process, you are quitting on the result” ... “Never Give Up” ... “Only Quitters Quit”.... There are so many sayings with the same basic idea, that quitting is a bad thing. This idea is instilled in us from the youngest age and even as we grow up, considered common place. To me however, winners do not quit or give up because the task is difficult or because they’re lazy, they quit because they are mature enough or self aware enough to acknowledge that something is no longer worth their time or energy. 
So today I'm going to reframe quitting to "letting go" and offer you some perspective shifts so you can finally let go of whatever is no longer serving you, that maybe you've been clinging on to out of fear of judgement.

Today's episode:
“If you quit on the process, you are quitting on the result” ... “Never Give Up” ... “Only Quitters Quit”.... There are so many sayings with the same basic idea, that quitting is a bad thing. This idea is instilled in us from the youngest age and even as we grow up, considered common place. To me however, winners do not quit or give up because the task is difficult or because they’re lazy, they quit because they are mature enough or self aware enough to acknowledge that something is no longer worth their time or energy. 
So today I'm going to reframe quitting to "letting go" and offer you some perspective shifts so you can finally let go of whatever is no longer serving you, that maybe you've been clinging on to out of fear of judgement. 
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

Have you ever gotten into work early and felt like you got way more done in that hour than a regular hour? Or maybe you find the tasks you hate most seem to take the longest? Whether you're already nodding your head or find you're yo-yoing in performance, you've chosen the right episode to tune into!
Today I share one of my favourite interviews, a replay with guest Tony Wilson who is an expert in human performance and works with people to create the right environment for them to thrive and maintain high performance whilst avoiding BURNOUT. We chat about how we can get clear on and respect our balance, debunk some misnomers about productivity, tips on how to make the most of your weekend/spare time and all things performance.
You can expect to wrap your head around how to actually define your balance, a winning mindset, getting in the zone and how to maintain it and why motivation may (or may not) be a whole lot of BS.

Today's episode:
Soooo many of you have popped into my DMs being like 'hey, we always hear you and the guests mention TYPE A personality, what's that all about'? I figured an episode dedicated to explaining this + the other 4 types (B, C, D &amp; X) would be extremely useful. Knowing what type you are is important for increased self awareness plus once you wrap your head around the types, it really increases your interpersonal skills because you can understand others better too!

      <title>Candy Kemp on why self doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will</title>

-----------------
Today I am joined by Candy Kemp, the founder of Founder @suppleskinco, serial entrepreneur and mum of 4!
She shares her philosophy of using intuition and prompt action to leap into business (and yes, avoid self doubt by giving it no time to creep in), shares her lessons from running multi million dollar businesses and beautifully describes how balance to her is like seasons.
We dive deep into not staying small with self doubt and the exact practices she used as self care to nurture herself back into her authentic being/reminded her of who she was.
You can connect with Candy more @candycocokemp.
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

Today I am joined by Candy Kemp, the founder of Founder @suppleskinco, serial entrepreneur and mum of 4!
She shares her philosophy of using intuition and prompt action to leap into business (and yes, avoid self doubt by giving it no time to creep in), shares her lessons from running multi million dollar businesses and beautifully describes how balance to her is like seasons.
We dive deep into not staying small with self doubt and the exact practices she used as self care to nurture herself back into her authentic being/reminded her of who she was.
You can connect with Candy more @candycocokemp.

If you have 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey, it would be INCREDIBLY appreciated + really helps us plan relevant and needed content. Click here to have your say!
Today's episode:
Work is one of those things we need for a sense of fulfilment, either personal/growth or financial, yet it can often be the things that destroys our overall sense of being ... that is, if we don't know how to manage and have a balanced relationship with it. Today I have dedicated the last of our Balance Rules series to this area because I feel there is SO much potential in our capabilities when we have a healthy and well defined relationship with work.
Does this mean you won't work any overtime? No. Does this mean you won't work hard? No! It's about getting to the core of what you require from a job and knowing when it is taking you away from the other areas of your life. A key skill which I feel, is the make or break for our sense of balance.

      <title> Dr. Don Davis on how to tell when you're overcommitted in your personal/professional life</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/dr-don-davis-on-the-signs-of-overcommitment-to-your-personal</link>
      <description>Today's episode is brought to you by Performance Lab, the creator of the Focus Planner. To get your time management and balance in order, click here to get your planner and use the code 'BALANCE' at checkout for 30% off.
Today we are joined by Dr. Don Davis PhD, MBA who shares insights into his new book 'Overcommitted: How to transform your habits and achieve the life you desire'.
As you probably guessed, points of today's chat are about the signs of us overcommitting in different areas of our life (yes even those you feel are good/healthy, we can be overcommitted in), how we know when we need to shake our habits, the concept of 'quiet quitting' for those working on things outside of their 9-5 and why he doesn't believe we need January 1st for a reset. He in fact, accomplishes this reset on a daily basis and teaches us just how to do this today!
Dr. Don Davis is an author, coach and consultant who joins us from the US today for a very insightful chat. You can learn more about him on his website or access the book on Amazon here.
Share this episode with your mum, sister or a friend if you know they'll love it too!

      <title>BTS Rules for a balanced relationship with your body</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-rules-for-a-balanced-relationship-with-your-body</link>
      <description>Imagine you got one car for your whole life!? How far would you go to care for it, regularly service it, keep it tidy (probably a lot better that what you currently do - AM I RIGHT?) Well your body is that one vehicle you get for life.
Today I chat through some cardinal rules I personally have to strengthen my relationship and sense of balance with my body. Rules I feel you will all love and really embrace!
Want some more content on COMPARISON? Here's an episode to add to your next walk or commute.

Today’s guest Nora, is a certified Self-Empowerment Coach, on a mission to support individuals in showing up unapologetically and having more fulfilling relationships. I instantly connected with her mission when I came across it and so I am very excited to have Nora on the show today to talk about how we can fully embody who we are, her career shift and transition through feeling lost, how we can overcome the inevitable fear that creeps up with doing new things and how to better understand our ego.
She also drops some golden nuggets on how to reframe rejection as misalignment and also how to extend self love &amp; compassion in moments of negative energy,

      <title>Gül Sönmez on mindfulness at work + what your body pain means</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/gul-sonmez-on-mindfulness-at-work-what-your-body-pain-really</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Mindfulness Trainer, Transformation Coach, and the Founder of Purposeful Vibes - Gül Sönmez. She helps entrepreneurs and corporate professionals all around the world move past their stress and trauma to heal, transform and flourish in all areas of their lives.
We diveinto how to become more mindful in the work place (especially for moments where you can't really leave work but need to reground), she introduces me to 'energy hygiene' to ground &amp; protect ourselves, she shares what your body pain can teach you about things you need to process (especially neck pain) and provides a library of techniques for you to try and add to your toolkit! I also pick her brain on the age old "I'm not good enough" belief - what she said changed my world. I have bookmarked and will listen to this over and over especially when I need it.
You can connect with Gül more here on IG or visit her website Purposeful Vibes.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-rules-for-a-balanced-relationship-with-our-self</link>
      <description>Today we target another balance area and lay down the law on how to find balance in it! We chat all things how to protect our balance &amp; relationship to ourselves! (PS I already know you guys are going to love this episode!!) 
In this ep we dive into the meaning of self care, what to do when you have scattered energy or feel disconnected from yourself, what tools are counterintuitive to you connecting with yourself, bringing curiosity to your life to make you hyper aware, gut feeling + intuition PLUS taking control of your life.

      <title>Melissa Ambrosini on empowerment &amp; surrender for women &amp; mothers</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/pete-pengley-on</link>
      <description>today's episode is not just for women who are pregnant, but those like ME who hope to have babies in the future. Named a “Self-Help Guru” by Elle Magazine, today’s guest is the bestselling author of Mastering Your Mean Girl, Open Wide, Comparisonitis and the Audible Original PurposeFULL, as well as the host of #1 rated podcast The Melissa Ambrosini Show. 
Melissa has just launched her Wholy Mama program which she sits down to share with me today! We chat all things from conscious conception, how to have an empowered birth and surrender to the uncertainty of it all, postpartum and of course, conscious parenting. Her tools &amp; tips are invaluable no matter what stage of the "soon to be parent" or "parent" journey you're on. A message and program for all future and current mamas that I feel is so powerful and wholesome. You won't regret listening to this one!
Share it with a soon to be or future mama and share the love.
You can find out more about the program here or connect with Melissa on IG here.
Until next time,
Stay Balanced

      <title>BTS My 3 step process for dealing with negative thoughts </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-3</link>
      <description>Today I share a 3 step process that has recently helped me deal with and work through negative thoughts. The aim is never to completely stop them (I feel that's impossible), but rather change how we respond to them.
This episode has been inspired by the work of Mo Gawdat, author of Solve for Happy.
You can check out Mo's interview on The Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/payal-corey-on</link>
      <description>Today’s guest is the head performance advisor and CEO of Neuro Athletics, Neurophysiologist and Billionaire coach + a NEW and great friends of mine, Louisa Nicola. She's on a mission to optimise mental performance and to help educate, train and unlock human performance through science and data with a commitment to your potential.
Today we chat about how her brush with Gary V started her incredible podcast The Neuro Experience, the common things we do that fasten the brain ageing process (an in turn things we can do to slow it down), she gives us a neuroanatomy 101, shares her favourite supplements and coffee tips! Louisa also shares the BEST form of exercise for brain health, tips for optimal sleep and what a balanced brain means to her.
Connect with Louisa more on IG or TikTok.

      <title>BTS 10 bad habits you need to stop to protect your long term balance</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-2</link>
      <description>Today I want to share some of the worst habits a lot of us have, some I still slip into, that are detrimental to our life balance. Some of these are going to sound basic, but if it’s so simple, why do we still keep doing them? The first half relate to our physical health and the second half relate to our mental health. Woven in these are some that also cross over with relationships and work life which is always always underpinned by our health.
Ready to see how many you’re currently engaging in? Make sure you keep a tally of which ones are In your life at the moment as I am going to set you a challenge at the end.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Today I want to share some of the worst habits a lot of us have, some I still slip into, that are detrimental to our life balance. Some of these are going to sound basic, but if it’s so simple, why do we still keep doing them? The first half relate to our physical health and the second half relate to our mental health. Woven in these are some that also cross over with relationships and work life which is always always underpinned by our health.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ready to see how many you’re currently engaging in?

      <title>Laura Henshaw on 'grey' boundaries &amp; imposter syndrome </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/laura-henshaw-on</link>
      <description>This episode marks 100 GUEST EPISODES! I am so excited to celebrate with a truly special guest, the wonderful CEO and co-founder of Australian health &amp; wellness app, Keep it Cleaner (KIC). Her mission is to help others embrace self-acceptance and make sustainable changes towards a healthier, happier lifestyle. Having Laura back on the show for a one on one was an absolute treat.
Today we dive into how she cushions her self care around a busy schedule, why boundaries can't be black and white, how to do what you can with what you have and how she used to crave a slow down, but now appreciates the hustle &amp; bustle.
She shares how she uses cleaning as therapy, what it's like being a female CEO, how using emotion can be a strength in business, and lastly but importantly, a deep dive into Laura's experience with imposter syndrome and her tips for beating it.
I know you'll love this episode so be sure to share it with someone who will too! You can find out more about KIC on their website here, or connect with Laura on IG @Laura.henshaw or on TikTok.
For more on our Imposter Syndrome specific episode, you can listen here.

      <title>BTS The sacrifices that come with change &amp; how to embrace them</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts</link>
      <description>Today’s episode is inspired by a conversation I’ve had with one of you Balancers. Their painpoint? Dealing with the inevitable sacrifices that come with change. Even when we know and feel a change is necessary, the fall out or collateral damage from change, can be really hard to work through. Having undertaken a LOT of change this year myself, sacrificing my identity, career trajectory, money and so on, are all things I have felt.
Today I share my thoughts on what these sacrifices mean on our journey and path and how to deal with them PLUS a cool morning activity you can do every day (under 1 min) to keep your why/purpose front and centre.
To check out our dedicated episode on Comparison you can find it here. Do share this episode with someone that comes to mind when I say change and sacrifice!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced

      <title>Iris Smit on time alone, work-travel &amp; self growth</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/iris-jade-on</link>
      <description>Today I am rejoined by the beautiful and talented Iris Smit who is the founder and brains behind The Quick Flick brand. Today I get the chance to ask Iris about all the incredible things that have happened since we last had her on the show (the link to our previous interview is here).
Wrapped in this is a convo around what working while travelling taught her and why its something that is NOT for either of us, how to schedule in and prioritise self care so it's not forgotten about, how she enjoys and embraces time alone and how she found self growth in her business journey. She also shares the process of launching in Coles, how she faces online criticism and lastly, the best business advice you'll hear all week!
Be sure to connect with Iris on IG @irisjade and on TikTok.
Until next time,

      <itunes:summary>Today I am rejoined by the beautiful and talented Iris Smit who is the founder and brains behind The Quick Flick brand. Today I get the chance to ask Iris about all the incredible things that have happened since we last had her on the show (the link to our previous interview is here).
Wrapped in this is a convo around what working while travelling taught her and why its something that is NOT for either of us, how to schedule in and prioritise self care so it's not forgotten about, how she enjoys and embraces time alone and how she found self growth in her business journey. She also shares the process of launching in Coles, how she faces online criticism and lastly, the best business advice you'll hear all week!
Be sure to connect with Iris on IG @irisjade and on TikTok.
Until next time,
Stay Balanced

      <title>BTS Things everyone on their self growth journey needs to know </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/next-bts</link>
      <description>Lately I’ve been speaking with a lot of people who are either quite new on the self growth journey OR are constantly looking for ways to do better for themselves. I have been on my self discovery journey for I’d say around 3 years now and there are somethings I originally thought would “improve” or “get better” which I’ve now learned are just a part of the self growth journey.
I think it’s a really useful discussion to flag these things especially for those of you navigating this for the first time and really feeling quite alone.

      <title>Joe Hawley on letting go of EVERYTHING you know &amp; following your heart</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/joe-hawley-on</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by NFL athlete turned entrepreneur, podcast host, and Founder of The Härt Collective, Joe Hawley. He shares his incredible career shift from an athlete to entrepreneur and how this was the biggest defining moment &amp; transition of his life. Within this, he uncovers the uncertainty, fear and self growth he experienced in following a calling to move on from what he knew, and lead from his heart.
Within this he shares how he learned to sit in the unknown to rediscover himself. He shares some insightful comments into our breath, including a breath hack to calm the nervous system, his interesting recent dopamine detox as well as tips on how to lead from the heart.
You can follow Joe's journey more on IG @Joe.hawley or @the.hart.collective
Be sure to send across this episode to someone who you think will enjoy it too!

He shares his incredible career shift from an athlete to entrepreneur and how this was the biggest defining moment &amp;amp; transition of his life.&amp;nbsp;Within this, he uncovers the uncertainty, fear and self growth he experienced in following a calling to move on from what he knew, and lead from his heart.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Within this he shares how he learned to sit in the unknown to rediscover himself. He shares some insightful comments into our breath, including a breath hack to calm the nervous system, his interesting recent dopamine detox as well as tips on how to lead from the heart.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can follow Joe's journey more on IG @&lt;a href="https://www.instagram.com/joe.hawley/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Joe.hawley&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="https://www.instagram.com/the.hart.collective/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;@the.hart.collective&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be sure to send across this episode to someone who you think will enjoy it too!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until next time,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;P.S.

      <title>BTS If you thrive in busyness but feel guilty for it, this one's for you</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-if-you-thrive-in-busyness-but-feel-guilty-for-it-this-on</link>
      <description>This is the literal dilemma I had that prompted me to start this podcast... that is, thriving in busyness and loving being busy, but also feeling guilty for it. So I sat down and reframed what being busy meant, how it made me feel and how to ensure I didn't get swept up in the "busyness" to a point where I neglected my wellness, my wellbeing. And today, I take you exactly through the process I undertook to arrive in a place where I feel confident defending my time &amp; forgetting feeling guilty for how I'm spending it.
At times we need to go deeper in our health, or our work, and we don't need to feel guilty or let others make us feel guilty for it. So get ready to OWN it! Let's Balance together.

      <title>Marlo Grover on finding joyful movement and proactive self care</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/marlo-grover-on</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Marlo Grover, the founder of G Pump and woman on a mission to spread joyful vibes into our exercise regimes! Among some of the incredible topics we dive into today, my favourites include why exercise shouldn't be a chore and how to fix a 'meh' relationship with it, how to enjoy the process and take the pressure of the results, and importantly why something doesn't have to be hard for it to be effective.
We also chat about the meaning of self care everyday, rather than using it as a go-to when sh*t hits the fan. Another personal fav of both of ours is using Disney movies as a self care activity but you'll need to tune in to hear our favourites!
You can connect with Marlo more on LinkedIn, TikTok or Instagram @marlowalkergrover or @g.pump_fit
Be sure to send across this episode to someone who you think will enjoy it too!

      <title>BTS Why failing is an essential part of any journey</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-why-you-need-to-fail</link>
      <description>Today I share a replay of a very early episode that I have recently listened back to to help me reframe my feelings with failure. In this episode, I share my thoughts on "beginnings" and their close but common link to "failing". I think the fear of failing, and the emotions associated with 'new beginnings' often prevent people from getting started A LOT more than they should. I share some insights into how we can reframe our understanding and connection to these feelings, and kick beginnings in the butt!

I share some insights into how we can reframe our understanding and connection to these feelings, and kick beginnings in the butt! </p><br><p>Share this ep with someone who will love it + if you're loving the content, take a moment and leave us a review/rating on Apple or Spotify!</p><br><p>Until next time, </p><p>Stay Balanced </p><br><p>P.S.

      <title>Gil Winch on how to create a more effective &amp; inclusive work place </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/gil-winch-on</link>
      <description>On today’s episode I am joined by Gil Winch, an organisational consultant and keynote speaker, to talk about diverse workplaces. A big focus of his at present is the inclusion of physically and emotionally disabled individuals in the workplace to move towards real inclusion. We discuss business productivity and how disabilities can actually enhance your output and business longevity. Gil also dives into what diversity means and what that looks like in different workplaces as well as on the global stage. 
Gil has served as a personal consultant to CEO’s and leaders of large organisations and is on a mission to end workplace exclusion and make significant inroads toward social justice. His new book, Winning with Underdogs is teaching employers how to build a workplace that’s both more inclusive and more effective.
You can find out more about Gil over on his website, or otherwise via LinkedIn.

      <title>BTS Why feeling lost isn’t a bad thing + how to embrace it</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-why-feeling-lost-isnt-a-bad-thing-how-to-embrace-it</link>
      <description>Today I want to chat about something I have recently felt which initially, felt extremely alien and foreign to me, and that is the feeling of being lost. At first, these feelings were uncomfortable for me. I resisted them and felt like I should have my sh*t sorted, but this resistance only pushed me further into the view that this feeling of being lost was bad and I needed a way out ASAP. 
As time has gone on and as I’ve sat with all the feels that come from this lostness, I am starting to view this as more of a reset or pivot in my life. So, today you’re going to hear 3 reasons why feeling lost is not a bad place to be and how it can truly be a special and eye opening moment in your life.

So, today you’re going to hear 3 reasons why feeling lost is not a bad place to be and how it can truly be a special and eye opening moment in your life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Share this ep with someone who will love it + if you're loving the content, take a moment and leave us a review/rating on Apple or Spotify!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;EPISODE LINK - &lt;a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/0qHw8ShgeaRBwiXzNaWZBF?si=fb1d8bb3068c494a" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;"How to make more time for the things you love&lt;/a&gt;" episode&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until next time,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;P.S.

      <title>BTS How to use negative feedback as an opportunity for self growth</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-how-to-use-negative-feedback-as-an-opportunity-for-self-</link>
      <description>Negative feedback is something we’re all familiar with - whether it be in a professional capacity or via a personal relationship. It can come as constructive criticism or abrupt commentary, either way, it impacts us. I don’t know about you, but in the moment when receiving negative feedback, I usually plunge into emotions like embarrassed, shy, disappointed, guilty or any other yucky type of emotion. 
And so, today I want to empower you with some insights into this reaction and how we can look at feedback objectively, remove the emotion, and in the process understand something deeper about ourselves!

      <title>BTS Why you need to be able to identify good and bad expectations</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-how-to-tell-when-an-expectation-is-good-or-bad</link>
      <description>If you're anything like me and feel like you're a bit of a perfectionist, then you're probably not foreign to the idea of having expectations on yourself across multiple areas of your life (especially work/career ones)! Today I want to chat about where these come from and explore when they can be good, and motivate us, but also when they can be bad and steer us away from what we genuinely want.
I'll also dive deep into how to work out what success means to you so that you can make sure your expectations are aligned to what you value.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/lisa-cox-empowered-empowering-through-her-disability</link>
      <description>Did you know 1 in 5 Australians suffer from a disability?
On this episode we chat with Lisa Cox — disability advocate, author, business consultant and media professional. Lisa aims to improve representation of the disabled community throughout mainstream pop culture by leading conversations about the important of representation and guiding business on how they can assist in inclusion. 
We talk about how disability is different to each person, how she finds balance with her disability by honouring her body and how important gratitude is. We also discuss the idea of ‘toxic positivity’ and how empowering disability can actually be if you allow it. 
You can find out more about Lisa over on her website or Instagram. Feel free to also check out the Media Diversity Australia ‘Disability Reporting Handbook’ here.

      <title>BTS How to know if your circle is blocking your authentic self</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-how-to-know-if-your-circle-is-blocking-your-authentic-se</link>
      <description>Today I want to use this BTS to dive into the relationship category of balance, which is not one I’ve jumped into much on a solo episode before. When we have ties or relationships that are ‘toxic’ or have an element where something just feels off about them, they can really impinge on our balance, and critically, the way we show up as ourselves. 
So, in todays’ episode you’re going to hear my thoughts on how to choose relationships that are best for you, which ones to avoid to protect your balance and when you might be blocking yourself from the right people! To help you take action on these principles, you'll find some journal or meditation prompts below - use them however you like to work through the takeaways from today's ep - enjoy!
JOURNAL PROMPTS:
What value do I want from a relationship/friendship with ______? *Can also be done as a hypothetical if you’re looking for new friends or a new partner i.e. What value do I want from a friendship?
What have some past relationships taught be about what I DO NOT want in a relationship/friendship? What values can I see I hold as a result of these?
Are my current relationships/friendships allowing me to be my most authentic self?
If there are some that are not, why am I holding on to them? Is there other value that can justify my time/energy being involved in this relationship?
Can I identify any limiting beliefs I hold about what I deserve or am worthy of that could be influencing my decision to maintain these ‘toxic’ relationships? If yes, can I rewrite them to attract what I do deserve in my life?
Share this ep with someone who will love it + if you're loving the content, take a moment and leave us a review/rating on Apple or Spotify!

      <title>Hao Nguyen on structuring your day for max efficiency </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/hao-nguyen-on-structuring-your-day-for-max-efficiency</link>
      <description>On this episode we chat with Hao Nguyen, Editor-in-Chief at Balance the Grind, a publication built on sharing ideas and building conversations about healthy work-life balance from different people in different careers. Hao is also the Head of Content at The Nudge Group - a company that helps global start-ups going through different business growth stages - and a dad! 
We talk about what balance looks like on a day-to-day and how the meaning of balance changes for each individual. We also discuss the importance of regularly checking in with yourself, ‘auditing your time’ and the purpose of intentional scrolling. 
You can find out more about Hao over on his LinkedIn, otherwise check out Balance the Grind via their website or Instagram. PST I am also a creator for this site so check out some of their recent reads for TBT content.

      <title>BTS Boundaries you need to implement if you want a healthy mindset</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-boundaries-you-need-to-implement-if-you-want-a-healthy-m</link>
      <description>Today I want to dive into something I’ve spoken about before in parts but not to this degree of specificity before and that is, boundaries I feel are non-negotiable if we want to protect and have a healthy mindset. 
I’m going to focus on three key boundaries I feel we should all set to protect our connection to self and these are Boundaries with - people who’s voices overpower your own, topics that trigger you (or topics with certain people), work boundaries. Tune in to learn more!

      <title>Ange Simson on the link between money health, mindfulness &amp; gratitude </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ange-simson-on-the-link-between-money-health-mindfulness-gra</link>
      <description>**NOTE: The audio on this episode is not our usual quality and was impacted during recording.
On this episode our host, Erika, chats with Ange Simson; an integrative nutrition health coach, writer, speaker, mentor and mother! She is the founder of the Gratitude Gang as well as the Health Hub, which are both communities for women to live a more mindful, joyful and abundant life. 
We talk about Ange’s own journey with migraines and food which transformed into coaching other women on their own health related journeys. We discuss money as health and achieving monetary freedom especially as females. We take a dive into intentional gratitude, how it makes us feel good and those around us too, and how to control our tendencies to gossip and deal with negative energy around us. 
Feel free to check out more of Ange’s content over on Instagram or via her website.

      <title>BTS Use negative thoughts + judgement to your advantage</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/bts-5-how-to-use-negative-thoughts-or-judgement-to-learn-som</link>
      <description>A huge focus of today's ep is JUDGEMENT &amp; negative thoughts about other people. How frustrating is it when you can feel yourself being hung up or stuck on a situation, person or comment!? 
The truth is, when we feel this way, we are responding to something that clashes with our own fundamental values or metric for success/"the right way" of doing things. SO this means that there's an opportunity each time we feel this way, to get introspective and learn something about ourselves!

      <title>Nat Kringoudis on why being fertile matters beyond falling pregnant </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/84-nat-kringoudis-on-why-being-fertile-matters-beyond-fallin</link>

      <title>A 3x Olympic winner's take on opportunities &amp; busyness </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/77-genevieve-gregson-on-being-a-3-times-olympics-winner</link>
      <description>This week I interview Gen Gregson who is a 3x Olympic finalist, specialising in the 3000m steeplechase, 2 x World Champ finalist and has just started her own run club with her partner called Gregson Running. We chat about the career path of becoming an Olympian, what it takes to get there and win 3 gold medals, taking opportunities that may feel crazy (and scary) at the time, her hardest moment in her athletic career and I quiz her on whether she experienced any self doubt along the way.
Plus she shares how she deals with negative mental chatter (especially during running) and how she uses lists to approach busy days. 
You can connect with Gen more on IG @gengen_lacaze .
Share this episode with two friends or family members who will love it as much as you! 
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

Robyn also shares insight into how and why diversity is our biggest teacher, how we can become more inclusive and educate ourselves within that space as well as what it means for Robyn to be a part of queer &amp; non-binary communities.

      <title>Kelsey Wells on fitness for self love + a formula for motivation </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/74-kelsey-wells-on-fitness-for-self-love-setting-sustainable</link>
      <description>Today I'm beyond excited to introduce you all to Kelsey Wells - wife, mother and certified personal trainer with expertise in post-natal training. After having her baby, she started a health plan to help improve her fitness, little did I know that it would completely change the course of her life! Today we spoke about so many goodies you will want a notepad near by! From using fitness for self empowerment and to heal ourselves instead of hate ourselves, to setting sustainable fitness goals, to identifying our motive for movement and finding self love.
We chat about how to measure results to align with self love, building trust with ourselves, opening the conversation about not being ashamed of our mental health, Self awareness and self acceptance and the formula for motivation. There were so many touching moments in today's chat and I know you will know at least two people who will need to hear this chat - so send it on to them and share the love!
You can connect with Kelsey more on IG @kelseywells!

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Today I'm beyond excited to introduce you all to Kelsey Wells - wife, mother and certified personal trainer with expertise in post-natal training. After having her baby, she started a health plan to help improve her fitness, little did I know that it would completely change the course of her life! Today we spoke about so many goodies you will want a notepad near by! From using fitness for self empowerment and to heal ourselves instead of hate ourselves, to setting sustainable fitness goals, to identifying our motive for movement and finding self love.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We chat about how to measure results to align with self love, building trust with ourselves, opening the conversation about not being ashamed of our mental health, Self awareness and self acceptance and the formula for motivation. There were so many touching moments in today's chat and I know you will know at least two people who will need to hear this chat - &lt;u&gt;so send it on to them &lt;/u&gt;and share the love!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can connect with Kelsey more on IG @&lt;a href="https://www.instagram.com/kelseywells/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;kelseywells&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until next time,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Support this show &lt;a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory"&gt;http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Heaven Leigh on a plant based lifestyle + finding passion for success </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/73-heaven-leigh-on-a-plant-based-lifestyle-and-finding-the-p</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Heaven Leigh, a conscious living leader and owner of Sydney’s vegan restaurant, Bodhi. I had such a wonderful time chatting to Heaven about her story, now balanced approach to a plant based lifestyle and finding a regime that has worked for her. We also speak about her experience as a restauranteur, finding the passion to succeed, identifying your drivers/why, finding yourself in moments you feel lost and of course, finding balance with your food.
I loved every moment of our chat, and if you did too, send it on to a friend who would love to listen in!

      <description>This weeks episode is inspired by something I’ve recently been struggling with and I know a lot of you do too as A-type personalities, and that is getting comfortable with doing nothing. Before I share my thoughts on this, I want to share some exciting personal updates in my personal life that have lead me to having to get comfortable with doing nothing, and why I’m realising that is the ultimate form of self care!

      <title>Brianna Creenaune on surviving a house fire &amp; relearning self love</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/71-brianna-creenaune-on-surviving-a-house-fire-relearning-se</link>
      <description>When Brianna was only 16, she was in a house fire and received 60% burns to her body. After defying the odds, countless surgeries and gruelling physical therapy Brianna found her self love and passion for taking photos during her recovery, a passion that has led to her creating her own social media platform. Today she shares that passion with us, as well as a deep dive into overcoming self doubt, body image self acceptance, the meaning of self care and phoenix cups. 
You can connect with Brianna more on instagram at @briannacreenaune and with us @thebalancetheory

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/70-jada-perfect-on-juggling-purpose-the-cost-of-a-job-you-ha</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Jada Perfect, the Founder of Boss Lady Events; a social networking community for women who maybe like you, are currently running their own small business or wish to begin doing so. She started Boss Lady Events with the sole intention to empower, educate and inspire women to take the plunge in making their business goals go from a dream to an everyday reality - which is a great essence of what we discuss today! 
She shares how she balances her passions, Boss Lady with her 9-5 (actually evening) Pizza shop business, what juggling purpose is all about, why Monday's are her favourite and the cost of a job you hate on your health. ALSO if you're someone who wants something different, Jada gives some tips on what the next step could be, whether its a business or another job as well as lots of amazing networking tips! Lastly, for all businesses, the million $ question of whether it's necessary to show up on social media - the answer is YES and Jada tells us why!

      <title>Georgie on high functioning anxiety + the truth about self sabotage </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/69-georgie-the-naturopath-on-high-functioning-anxiety-toolki</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Georgie Collinson (some of you may know her as Georgie the Naturopath) who is an Anxiety Mindset Coach, Hypnotherapist, Naturopath and Nutritionist. Today she shares her passion for helping busy women to achieve balance in their mind, body and business.
Today we dive deep into - you guessed it - all things anxiety related including what it is, high functioning anxiety and tools for when you're feeling anxious (and things to try/avoid).  Speaking of tools, we discuss why having a toolkit is better than 3 go to solutions, how to hold space for yourself and why it's a superpower, superwoman syndrome &amp; what our "inner child" or subconscious has to do with self sabotage.
Share this episode with someone you know will love it!

      <title>MM20 How to make procrastination work in your favour </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm20-how-to-make-procrastination-work-in-your-favour</link>
      <description>This week I talk all about something that plagues many of us and our movement towards our goals - PROCRASTINATION! We explore the two different types of procrastination and give you the info you need to be able to identify when it's "good" or "bad" procrastination. Another key aspect of this is learning that procrastination isn't necessarily a self control problem, but about an emotional regulation problem. If you've been down by procrastination for too long now and want to kick it in the butt, then this is the episode for you!
Or take it one step further if it's standing in the way of you and your goals, and sign up to our Goal Setting Workshop where you learn how to get a clear path and do something small everyday to make your goals a reality!

      <title>Shannah Kennedy on building a life plan, the cost of burn out &amp; unlearning habits </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/68-shannah-kennedy-on-building-a-life-plan</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Shannah Kennedy who shares her thoughts and knowledge on why we need a life plan. Think about it ... we are not our jobs - it's what we do, not who we are. So who are we? She shares the cost of burnout on her personal health. how to draw a line between your hobbies/passions and life, flipping guilt for not being productive, unlearning habits and dealing with expectations. My final sneak preview is her thoughts on why high performers need to value rest and recovery (which often is so counter intuitive) to perform sustainably.
SO MUCH packed in today's chat. Links below.

      <title>Athina Bailey on the real qs to ask when manifesting &amp; energetic boundaries </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/64-athina-bailey-on-finding-your-soul-purpose-the-real-qs-to</link>
      <description>Join me today as I tap into my more spiritual side with Athina Bailey - a Kinesiologist, Trance Channeller, Clairvoyant, Spiritual Teacher &amp; Energy Expert who helps intuitive women up level in their life &amp; business. Whether you are spiritually open or not, I want you to tune into this episode with an open mind and see what happens!
Today we chat all about connecting to your soul purpose, how to find it and lean into it, as well as manifesting your life path and asking the universe for a little help along the way. Athina also dives into a question we don't usually ask ourselves when manifesting, but now that I've heard it, can admit I could never practice manifesting without considering it! She also goes deep into how to connect with your intuition, letting go of emotions and lastly my FAVOURITE part, setting energetic boundaries which are critical for situations you may not be able to get out of.
Be sure to share this episode with a spiritual buddy who will love it as much as you! You can connect with Athina more on IG @starseed_awakening or on her website here.

      <title>MM18 End the year strong + how to set up momentum &amp; be proactive for the new year</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm18-5-ways-to-end-2021-strong-and-set-up-momentum-for-2022</link>
      <description>**free eBook download for this episode**
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel scrambled in the new year, partially because I am so clouded from the one gone by. Where do I start with goals? Where am I even at with what I achieved last year? This time around, I want to hit January 1st with the ground running, and I bet you do too!
Today you will be able to pause, reflect, and give yourself the opportunity to take what you've learned, acknowledge your achievements and reframe what you actually want before heading into the new year. The beauty in doing this, is being able to acknowledge where you are on your journey, and get clear on what you want from the next chapter. AND I've put together a free eBook to take you through each of these exercises so you can do this and revisit in your own time. PLUS there is a whole BONUS section on creating momentum for next year which I haven't gone into on today's podcast.
Get your FREE copy of our eBook here: www.thebalancetheory.com
Just like exercise or meditation is a proactive step in future proofing your health, so too is reflecting on the year gone by. By doing this before NYE, you are giving yourself as much mental bandwidth, space and time to really launch into the 1st January with clarity and intention.
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

        <![CDATA[<p>**free eBook download for this episode**</p><br><p>I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel scrambled in the new year, partially because I am so clouded from the one gone by. Where do I start with goals? Where am I even at with what I achieved last year? This time around, I want to hit January 1st with the ground running, and I bet you do too!</p><br><p>Today you will be able to pause, reflect, and give yourself the opportunity to take what you've learned, acknowledge your achievements and reframe what you actually want <strong>before</strong> heading into the new year. The beauty in doing this, is being able to acknowledge where you are on your journey, and get clear on what you want from the next chapter. AND I've put together a free eBook to take you through each of these exercises so you can do this and revisit in your own time. PLUS there is a whole BONUS section on creating momentum for next year which I haven't gone into on today's podcast.</p><br><p>Get your FREE copy of our eBook here: <a href="https://thebalancetheory.com/collections/learn-with-us/products/getting-ahead-for-2022-guide">www.thebalancetheory.com</a></p><br><p>Just like exercise or meditation is a proactive step in future proofing your health, so too is reflecting on the year gone by. By doing this before NYE, you are giving yourself as much mental bandwidth, space and time to really launch into the 1st January with clarity and intention.</p><br><p>Until next time,</p><p>Stay Balanced.</p><br><p>Resource: Free eBook download available here: <a href="www.thebalancetheory.com%20">www.thebalancetheory.com </a></p><p>Monday Muse 10 Podcast on letting go of grudges can be found here: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-balance-theory/id1515858773?i=1000515727566">https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-balance-theory/id1515858773?i=1000515727566</a></p><p>Support this show <a href="http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory">http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory</a>.</p><p> Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Jodi Duval on the immediate impacts of stress + hydration facts</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/62-jodi-duval-on-optimising-your-health-epigenetics-impacts</link>
      <description>Today I an joined by Jodi Duval, the founder of and principal naturopath at Revital Health – she is also an international speaker, lecturer, CEO of HOMeHOPe Australia, and medical course creator who is passionate about spreading quality information and informing people all over the world about optimising your health.
We chat all things optimal health from biohacking, to base foundational work, to non negotiable habits everyone can be doing. Jodi shares how her love of chocolate lead her to her passion area, what epigenetics are, the importance of minerals and why you might not be getting enough from your tap water, in turn the importance of hydration and quality of your water.
She also dives into stress and the impacts it has on your body right now, as well as gives some tips on how to stay in parasympathetic (opposite of stress) when you need to. Along the way you'll hear of some alternate plants and supplements that you might be keen to research more about! 
If you want to connect with Jodi more you can find her on IG @revital_health or on her website or podcast.

      <title>Katherine Baquie on exercising during &amp; post pregnancy + optimise recovery</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/61-katherine-etc</link>
      <description>This week I am joined by Katherine Baquie who is a mum of 3 young girls, a physiotherapist for women, and host of The FitNest Mama Podcast. She also has anan online community to provide pregnant and new mothers with the exercises, support &amp; resources they need to move from the overwhelm, the physical aches &amp; pains of pregnancy and the weakness felt after birth. Today we chat about all of this postpartum recovery, as well as do a deep dive into what the pelvic floor is and why strengthening it is just as important as learning to relax it. 
We also chat about exercising before, during and after pregnancy, why we can't let our recovery take a back seat, intensity and exercise times, your baseline of fitness, the talk test and giving yourself grace. She also shares some beautiful mantras for all new and expecting mamas. Something a little different and niche today, but I loved chatting with Kath about this area. You can find Kath at  www.fitnestmama.com, or on IG @fitnestmama or tune into her podcast here. 
Share this with a mama who is expecting or newly blessed! Follow us @thebalancetheory to stay in the loop with new episodes and drops.
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

      <title>Chloe Chivers on the link between gut &amp; vaginal health + the Horopito plant </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/60-chloe-chivers-on-cyclical-living-the-horopito-plant-and-t</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by naturopath Chloe Chivers for a deep dive into some interesting topics in female health. We have a big chat today about vaginal health, the common issues women experience like thrush and how to be preventative as well as treatment, the impact of diet on the balance down there and the way antibiotics play with our bacteria. 
We also have a whole section on cyclical living - whether that be with the moon, your period or other natural seasons, as a really grounding practice to live more aligned with nature. She shares the intelligence behind the Horopito plant and how it's natural adaption has something incredible to offer for our health. 
We also end on a chat about conception and fertility - is there anything we can be doing before we even think of falling pregnant or as we are trying to optimise this experience? How soon before and more!
I know you will get a lot out of today's chat! You can connect with Chloe more via the Kolorex website.
Tag us @thebalancetheory and let us know what your biggest takeaways were!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

We chat about the right diet habits and behaviours to enhance high performance and avoid that 3pm dump, optimise sleep and helping future you.
You can expect tips on living and performing at your best, simplifying nutrition, what our microbiome is all about and how to keep it happy, being intentional with WHEN you eat, how much water is enough and why hydration is key as well as how to eat yourself to optimal sleep. I honestly learnt SO much in today's pod I know you are just going to love every second - get those note pads out!
Be sure to share this with a loved one who needs this goodness too! You can connect with Jess at @jess_spendlove_dietitian, on her website or podcast. I mention this episode to check out if you love hearing about food swaps + the gut! 
Connect with us on IG @thebalancetheory. 
Until next time,
Stay Balanced!

      <title>MM17 Why not choosing is a choice &amp; the magic role of gratitude </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm17-why-not-choosing-is-a-choice-how-to-own-your-decisions</link>
      <description>This week I talk all about CHOICE. Choosing to change is a choice, but so is staying the same. There’s a power in accepting this. You may feel like you’re in a job just because you need it. Or you have friendships just because you’re in that group but you really wouldn’t otherwise.Choosing to stay in that job or spend time with that friendship group is a choice. And here’s why it matters to own this.
If you're feeling helpless or stuck then this episode is just what you need to reframe and take back control of your life. I also do a deep dive into the power of gratitude and have also discussed this on a previous episode, in Monday Muse 9 which you can find here.
Send this on to a loved one or connect with us on Instagram @thebalancetheory and let me know what you loved most!
Until next time,

      <title>Iris Smit on being your own hype girl + rockbottom in the middle of business success</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/58-iris-smit-on-being-your-own-hype-girl-staying-curious-and</link>
      <description>This week I am joined by Iris Smit, the innovative beauty queen behind game-changing brands Quick Flick and Beauty Fridge. Today we chat all things from doing a degree you don't end up working in, running a business before entrepreneurs were trendy, how innovation for quick flick came about during her uni days and what it meant for her to be successful on shark tank but turn down the offer.
She is also super raw &amp; vulnerable with me *TRIGGER WARNING* about her rock bottom and personal struggles growing up, which all came to a head in the peak of her 'business success'. This conflict ended up catapulting her into the most resilient and learning phase of her life, which has so much to teach us all. Expect using work as a distraction, being your own hype girl, being flexible with your morning routine, tips for starting business and staying curious as a key ingredient to success.
I know you will LOVE not only this chat, but Iris too. Tag myself @thebalancetheory and Iris @irisjade and share what your biggest takeaway were.
Until next time,
Stay curious and balanced.

      <title>Stef Jung on how rules can interfere with our intuition &amp; the forbidden fruit effect </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/56-stef-jung-on-food-freedom-how-rules-can-interfere-with-ou</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Stefanie Jung who is a Holistic Online Health Coach &amp; Yoga Teacher who has a focus on helping women heal their relationship with food &amp; their bodies. She opens up to me about her own challenges with extreme dieting and binge eating, what helped her overcome it and most importantly, the biggest lessons she has learned.
We talk about destructive relationships with food, living a double life, self hate to self love, power in finding the right professional, red flags for when you may not have food freedom (Even I was surprised with myself), how food rules impact your ability to eat intuitively and the forbidden fruit effect.
We end on a chat about what balance with diet means, how we can use it as a form of self care and how to make a conscious decision to go unconscious with food. HONESTLY there was so much in today's chat, I can't write it all here, just listen and enjoy!
You can find her online course ‘Discover Food Freedom’ a 9-week self-guided program to help women ditch toxic diet culture, overcome binging &amp; make peace with food and their bodies, here. Tune in to the episode for an exclusive code off this course!
You can connect with Stef more on IG @wholesomestef or by visiting her website here.
Share this with a loved one or to your story and let Stef &amp; I know what your biggest takeaways were.
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

      <title>MM16 Productivity guilt and how to deal with it </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm16-why-you-feel-guilty-about-not-being-productive-especial</link>
      <description>Today I wanted to go deep into something that has been personally frustrating me lately, especially being in lockdown, and something I have spoken to many of you about in my IG DMs. It’s around this idea that we feel guilt when we haven’t utilised our time to the max, or in other words been productive. In a usual routine, non lockdown, Do you ever get that feeling at the end of your day where you just haven’t been that productive? Maybe you haven’t crossed off what you wanted from your todo list, or you actually have done some stuff and feel completely deflated for not having done enough?
Well I bet if you feel that sometimes,  now during lockdown it’s probably hitting that nerve way harder in a different but somehow familiar way. One thing I’ve personally been struggling with is this idea that I have more time than ever right now, which should give me more time to slow down and relax, but I often feel the complete opposite? Join me as I explore why this is happening, productivity guilt, time anxiety and what you can do about it!

      <title>Sam Wood on active mindfulness and not waiting for a Monday </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/55-sam-wood-on-why-theres-no-perfect-balance-active-mindfuln</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Sam Wood who is the founder of 28 By Sam Wood, successful entrepreneur and businessman, as well an author and media commentator. It was so lovely chatting with Sam about all of the hats he wears in life, what balance means to him and some fantastic fitness tips too!
Waiting for a Monday? Maybe January 1st? Sam shares some tips on biting the bullet and getting started, not over complicated exercise and really connecting with our why. We chat biggest fitness mistakes, the fallacy of motivation, active mindfulness, and staying true to ourselves. Sam also takes me somewhere not many like to venture - that is, that there is no perfect balance. He humbly shares the aim of progress not perfection, and how to check in and make sure you aren'y chasing something that doesn't exist.
I know you're going to love this chat so much! Tag @thebalancetheory and @samjameswood and let us know what your biggest take away was!
Until next week,
Stay Balanced.

        <![CDATA[<p>Today I am joined by Sam Wood who is the founder of 28 By Sam Wood, successful entrepreneur and businessman, as well an author and media commentator. It was so lovely chatting with Sam about all of the hats he wears in life, what balance means to him and some fantastic fitness tips too!</p><br><p>Waiting for a Monday? Maybe January 1st? Sam shares some tips on biting the bullet and getting started, not over complicated exercise and really connecting with our why. We chat biggest fitness mistakes, the fallacy of motivation, active mindfulness, and staying true to ourselves. Sam also takes me somewhere not many like to venture - that is, that there is no perfect balance. He humbly shares the aim of progress not perfection, and how to check in and make sure you aren'y chasing something that doesn't exist.</p><br><p>I know you're going to love this chat so much! Tag @thebalancetheory and @samjameswood and let us know what your biggest take away was!</p><br><p>Until next week,</p><p>Stay Balanced. </p><p>Support this show <a href="http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory">http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory</a>.</p><p> Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Chantale Marie on the link between addiction &amp; high performance </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/53-chantale-marie-on-addiction-and-high-performance-unpackin</link>
      <description>This week I am joined by a mentor, friend and my therapist, Chantale Marie! Those of you who have been listening will have heard me paraphrase her wisdom on many occasions, and so I am honoured to be chatting with her on the pod today.
You can read a little more about Chantale below but what you can expect in today's episode is what addiction and high performance have in common, all things core beliefs and how to uncover them and why this matters! On this note, you've probably heard of limiting beliefs? We chat about the role these have to play and the way we can spot them in our behaviour. We do a deep dive into the conscious v subconscious, misconceptions about therapy, how to grow/feed thoughts and lastly how to deal with negativity - here C gives some fantastic practical tips to deal with this in the moment as well as my favourite visualisation!
Want to connect with Chantale? Shoot her an email at chantale@chantalemarie.com and mention the podcast!
Share this with someone who will love this ep as much as you, or pop it on your story and tag us @thebalancetheory!

Today I share my productivity tips and reasons why I believe time blocking is the key to being super efficient. I also talk about how routine can actually spark and enhance creativity. I gives some tips on how to time block and use non-negotiables and boundaries to structure these. 
I end on a really practical activity which we do together to take things off your mental to do list, in turn freeing up that brain space.
Love this episode? I'm sure you know someone who will too! Share the love and pass it on, or pop this on your story and tag us @thebalancetheory and let us know what your biggest takeaway is!
Until next time,

      <title>Rachael Finch on bio-individuality, how to prioritise &amp; all things wellness </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/52-chantale-marie-on</link>
      <description>Join me today as I firstly set you a lockdown challenge (although this is great for anytime too) as well as get to know the beautiful Rachael Finch and chat all things wellness and balance!
Today Rach shares what prioritising means and looks like to her, and how COVID has thrown a spanner in the works, but in this, some tips on how to stay on top of your priorities! We also dive into approaching our self care and health like we would any other important appointment (massive for those of you who "don't have time"), processing emotions, giving yourself space, when pushing goes too far and some key things to thing about when making health changes.
Lastly, Rach introduces a concept for the first time on the pod called 'bio-individuality' which is an incredible resource when considering our balance!
I know you're going to love this episode. Tag myself @thebalancetheory and @rachael_finch so we know you're listening and share your biggest takeaway!
Also send this to someone who you think will love it as much as you.

      <title>Georgina Claxton on the dynamic equilibrium + finding purpose beyond what you 'do' </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/51-georgina-claxton-on</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Georgina Claxton, a Physiotherapist with a special interest in Women’s Health, Clinical Pilates Instructor and Sport Scientist. Her purpose is to make a difference and inspire others to be their most authentic selves. 
What I most enjoyed about today's chat was the way Georgina took some complex &amp; professional concepts, and made them so disgestable for us and our balance - we speak tapping into one's purpose, what homeostasis has to do with balance, avoiding adrenal fatigue, how to actually take things off your plate and why being in our optimal thriving state is balance (and how to get there).
We also did a deep dive into why you are more than just your title, i..e what you do isn't who you are which I LOVE, and is so important to grasp (especially in the context of our balance). We ended on a chat about what role body image has to play in your balance and Georgina is open with her own struggles and journey in this area.
I know you're going to love this chat, so send it to someone who will too! Share this on your story and tag @thebalancetheory and @georgieclaxton to let us know you vibed with us!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

      <title>Priscilla Hajiantoni on navigating dissatisfaction &amp; leading w/ passion &amp; purpose  </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/50-priscilla-haji-bangn-bod-on</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by the founder of BANGN BODY, Priscilla Hajiantoni. She humbly shares her journey to building a million dollar business and what it takes to become Forbes 30 Under 30. You will be pleasantly surprised at how generous Priscilla is with offering the fine details and honesty about navigating the waters of business &amp; life!
We're able to relate so many of today's points - about spotting dissatisfaction, making changes, enjoying the process, making your own rules, the idea of success, following your passion (just to scrape the surface) - to not only business, but more importantly, our unique balance! We also debunk the concept of an overnight success and for anyone looking to start a business, this is the exact kind of hype girl talk you need to set your heart in the right direction!
PLUS a sneaky discount code for all balancers applicable storewide on www.bangnbody.com.

      <title>Hayley Westoby on the power of your personal brand &amp; challenging limiting beliefs</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/49-hayley-westoby-on</link>
      <description>Today I am rejoined by Hayley Westoby (previously featured on Episode 22), and she catches us up on all she has been up to since we last spoke + her new business!
Think you don't need a personal brand because you don't have a business? THINK AGAIN! We do a deep dive into what personal branding can teach us about our own balance, as well as helping us define our values and core pillars. This personal web can teach you more than you think including about your non negotiables, dealing with your inner critic and much more.
Speaking of non-negotiables, we're quick to define what they are in relationships, but what about our work? And how about those limiting beliefs that get in the way of life sometimes? Stay tuned as we chat about all of this in great depth and show how you can reframe limiting beliefs to empowering ones.

      <title>*GUIDED MEDITATION 3* Loving Kindness (especially during Lock Down) with Tom Sullivan 🧘</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/guided-meditation-3-xxxxx-w-tom-sullivan</link>
      <description>Take less than 10 minutes for yourself today to create space for loving kindness. Save this and come back to it when you need to re-ground and recenter yourself.
I'm joined by Tom Sullivan who some of you will recognises from Episode 29, who I've meditated with before and absolutely love the way he teaches this practice. You can connect with Tom more at @astillmind.
Share it with someone else who needs some "me-time"! 🧘 You can use this multiple times - it never gets old! Each time we sit &amp; practice, is a new opportunity to connect with ourselves in a new way.
With love &amp; enjoy!

      <title>MM14 Disarming and re-writing our fears </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm14</link>
      <description>Do you feel like fear holds you back from really pushing yourself in something or even getting started? Have you ever considered that fear can be both healthy and unhealthy? How would you feel knowing you can change the meaning of fear and therefore your entire relationship with it?
If you answered yes to any of the above, you're going to LOVE today's EP! Join me as we become aware of our fears, workout what they truly mean and attempt to rewrite them to completely disarm their power over us! There's nothing worse than having apprehension or uncertainty with something you really want to do!
Share this episode with a friend or family member and post this to your story and tag us @thebalancetheory so that we can see your biggest takeaways. If you haven't had a chance to leave a review or rating, head over to Apple Podcasts and leave your thoughts. This means the world to us as an independent podcast and future Balancers wanting to know if these episodes are suited for them and their journey!
Sending love and stay balanced!
NOTE: I am not a qualified professional and am not equipped to advise on fears that take the form of phobia, anxiety or any other condition and professional support &amp; advice is always highly recommended! Personal thoughts and experiences only form the backbone of this episode.

      <title>Simon Roberts on the power of not thinking &amp; 'body' storming  </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/47-simon-roberts-on-the-power-of-not-thinking</link>
      <description>This week I chat to UK author and anthropologist Simon Roberts, about 'the power of not thinking'. This title is NOT what you think! When I picked up the book, I expected tips and tricks on how to shut my mind off, BUT what I got was so much more and a very unique take on our bodies, and now I can share that with you all!
Simon and I chat about embodies knowledge and how the way we feel something is more profound than just seeing or hearing it. We question the concept of mind over matter/mind first, and talk about putting the body first as an idea! There are some things, like your intuition, that your body just feels and knows to be true, but you can't explain it! Why don't we put more emphasis on that? I think we're in a culture that prioritises the brain and often forgets to give credit to our bodies too! 
Simon shares how this concept is not only important for our balance, but also empathy, business strategy decisions and more! We also cover the idea of Body Storming. 
I know you're going to love this episode! Tag us and let us know what your biggest takeaways were. ALSO if you haven't had a chance to leave a review or rating, it would mean to world to us as an Independent podcast and our growing community.
Stay Balanced,
Erika

      <itunes:summary>This week I chat to UK author and anthropologist Simon Roberts, about 'the power of not thinking'. This title is NOT what you think! When I picked up the book, I expected tips and tricks on how to shut my mind off, BUT what I got was so much more and a very unique take on our bodies, and now I can share that with you all!
Simon and I chat about embodies knowledge and how the way we feel something is more profound than just seeing or hearing it. We question the concept of mind over matter/mind first, and talk about putting the body first as an idea! There are some things, like your intuition, that your body just feels and knows to be true, but you can't explain it! Why don't we put more emphasis on that? I think we're in a culture that prioritises the brain and often forgets to give credit to our bodies too! 
Simon shares how this concept is not only important for our balance, but also empathy, business strategy decisions and more! We also cover the idea of Body Storming. 
I know you're going to love this episode! Tag us and let us know what your biggest takeaways were. ALSO if you haven't had a chance to leave a review or rating, it would mean to world to us as an Independent podcast and our growing community.
Stay Balanced,

      <title>Dave Pow Tabain on why your worth isn't conditional &amp; breaking expectations </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/46-simon-roberts-on</link>
      <description>If you're ready to break free from internalising what society tells you is "right" then this is the episode for you! Today my usual boxing coach takes the guest seat on this episod.! Dave POW Tabain, is a 3 x World Champion Athlete turned Author, Presenter and Systemic Change Specialist who works with Schools, Communities &amp; Companies to inspire positive change from the inside out.
Today Dave shares his story from a farm boy who wasn't meant to do all the things, to breaking through and learning how to rewire what he deserves. We chat about his thoughts on why you were never actually imbalanced (you'll love this point), why your worth is not conditional and your output not a measure of this, the issue with labels and expectations and navigating the push and pull between want and need. 
Through the power of stories, Dave is able to turn judgement into authenticity, guilt into introspection and external validation into empowerment. I love everything about this conversation!
Tag myself and Dave @davepowtabain and let us know hat your biggest take aways were! Share, subscribe &amp; leave some love in our review section on Apple Podcasts.
Until next time,

      <title>Lola Berry on the art of detaching, fearlessly failing &amp; bouncing back from lows</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/45-lola-berry-on</link>
      <description>Today I chat with the wonderful Lola Berry, who is a TV presenter, best selling author, nutritionist, yoga teacher and podcast host of “Fearlessly Failing with Lola Berry”. Lola's work in redefining failure and being humble all the way through shapes today's conversation.
She shares a public failure she had, the lessons it taught her and we dive into why the bounce back from failure is more important than the "failure" itself. We also speak about the art of detaching and why you cannot be fully present if you're attached - I LOVE this concept and I know you will too! She also shares a very curious self care activity which I adore (and need to try myself) and a little about setting and executing goals! 
Can't wait for you to dive into this chat! If you love this episode, tag myself and Lola @yummololaberry and let us know what your biggest takeaways were, or send this to a loved one who will enjoy it as much as you! 
You can check out Lola's podcast here.

      <title>*GUIDED MEDITATION 2* Protecting yourself from negativity with Tom Sullivan 🧘</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/guided-meditation-2-with-tom-sullivan</link>
      <description>Take less than 10 minutes for yourself today to undergo a visualisation to help you with external and internal negativity. Save this and come back to it when you need to re-ground and recenter yourself. 
I'm joined by Tom Sullivan who some of you will recognises from Episode 29, who I've meditated with before and absolutely love the way he teaches this practice. You can connect with Tom more at @astillmind. 
Share it with someone else who needs some "me-time"! 🧘
NOT YOUR FIRST TIME HERE? Skip ahead to 1:05 to go past the intro and straight into the meditation! You can use this multiple times - it never gets old! Each time we sit &amp; practice, is a new opportunity to connect with ourselves in a new way.
With love &amp; enjoy!

      <title>MM13 Becoming comfortable with change + the gems hidden in its process</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm13-tba</link>
      <description>Hi Balancers, Erika back here for another Monday Muse episode. Today is all about CHANGE! Change is an INEVITABLE part of your balance - so if you're someone who finds they usually resist change, this is an ep especially for you my friend! 
Join me as I share a very recent change that I've undergone that inspired me to consider the uncomfortableness we experience in change and how we can better equip ourselves to combat this in the future. I take you through a really useful framework that explains the steps of change and might help you better understand where you get stuck, what parts your find difficult or just act as a lovely reflection on how you've successfully navigated change in the past. 
As it is an inevitable part of life, carefully considering our relationship with it, brings us that one step closer to our idea of balance. I also chat about why instant gratification can ruin great change and my thoughts on persistence and execution.
Share this with someone who will love it too!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced!

      <title>ES FIT Founders on working with your bestie + side hustling with a 9-5</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/44-sonia-de-pelle</link>
      <description>Join me today as I interview my bestie and business partner Simone on all things we've learned over the last year, our friendship, business learnings and much more! You can expect tips on how to work with a loved one, what it's really like having a side hustle in and amongst full time work and why flexibility in business is essential.
We also share a recent "failure" and our biggest learnings from it. Also, we know that feeling of 'getting started'. Whether it's a hobby, business or personal goal, we each offer a tip on how to make this easier - just know, you don't need to have all of the answers! The learning is in doing. If you have been following ES FIT and love our products, stay tuned until the end for a special listener discount.
Take a screen shot and share this with a friend or family member who will enjoy it as much as you!

      <title>Jessica Sepel (JS Health) on health and balance as kindness</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/43-spoonful-of-sarah-seize-the-yay-hot-author</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by the incredible Jessica Sepel, clinical nutritionist, 3 x best-selling health author, and founder of the JSHealth brand, App and Vitamins. 
I am honoured to have Jess on today as I have been following her IG account since she was just blogging her fav recipes and it's been inspiring watching her journey. She shares her story from this moment, to now, and everything in between including how her relationship with food, her body and "healthiness" has changed. The thing I love most is Jess' approach that balance &amp; health comes down to kindness - to yourself and your body. 
Included in this is being able to say no and setting boundaries - something that's a non-negotiable for Jess these days. Tune in to find out why she deletes her social media apps every night &amp; which macronutrient she thinks is super underrated! 
I can't wait for you to tune into this episode as I learnt so much &amp; was able to get to know Jess in a really personal way.
You can check out more @jshealth, @jshealthvitamins and her website. 
Share this episode with someone who will love it as much as you!

      <title>Sonia De Pelle on branding as a lens for personal introspection &amp; authenticity  </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/42-es-fit</link>
      <description>*This Episode is a MUST for all Self Development Junkies!* 
Today I am honoured to share with you all a chat with my nearest and dearest sister, Sonia De Pelle! She is also the Creative Founder of 'De Pelle' creative strategy branding agency. BEFORE you read on, I must impress that even if you aren't a business owner or see the need for "brands" in your personal or professional life, you will still get a LOT out of this ep so don't skim past it!
Today we talk a lot about the meaning of authenticity and introspection - two key elements to self development. The reason I am chatting to Sonia about this today is because her branding process is highly unique, personal and detailed to a point where elements of it can be used for any self scrutiny exercise. Need to find out what your values are? What makes you happy? What you enjoy? What energy you want to omit? Etc! All of these can be looked at much like one can when developing a brand. It may even open your eyes to the intentions of brands and the thought that goes into creating something bigger than ones self. 
A little bit different this week but nonetheless valuable. The key to understanding yourself and the self care you engage with, is questioning how you go about things. You can download our free resource here for a little guide!

      <title>Sarah Davidson (Seize The Yay) on happy accidents &amp; breaking the autopilot circuit </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/41-jessica-sepel-js-health-on</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by the wonderful Sarah Davidson - founder of Matcha Maiden, Matcha Mylkbar &amp; host of the Seize The Yay podcast. I have a been a big fan of Sarah's for some time now and I love her even more after this interview (total fan girl moment for me)! 
Today we chat about how Sarah got to where she is today, the happy accidents &amp; sliding doors moment that have landed her in many unforeseen but amazing situations as well as how the entire Seize The Yay concept came to be. In and amongst this, a chat about the danger zone a lot of us are in - the zone where we won't really question what we are doing, unless we are actively unhappy. She refers to this as the autopilot circuit and gives us her tips on how to break this and find true purpose - even if we don't change a thing. We also chat about Seizing Your NAY which is equally as important as the yay, finding your why, rewiring failures as movement forwards and her tips on meaningful self care.
We end with a chat about the importance of PLAY &amp; why dreaming big needs to be small enough so you can actually start.
I can't wait for you to tune into this one - I know you will love it as much as me! 
Check out all Sarah's up to @spoonful_of_sarah
Enjoy &amp; share with a loved one!

      <title>Ang Campanella on rewiring failures and taking action </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/40-ang-campanella-aka-my-partner-on</link>
      <description>Well this was fun! I got to interview my partner and share his wealth of knowledge about the human body &amp; zest for life all in one! To commemorate our birthday month, I'm sharing 3 of the closest people in my circle with you all as double episodes this June, starting with my soul mate!
Today Ang and I chat about lots of things from his professional journey into chiropractic, to owning a business, the lessons along the way &amp; why pain is your body's language and way of protecting you. This was a bomb that helped me years ago deal with niggles and rewire my understanding of the human body. More into life topics, we chat about why failures basically don't exist and how to rewire your perception of them, the importance of taking action over planning (most times) and how to back yourself.
I also share some insight into why Ang was such a pivotal part of this podcast coming to life and stay tuned for the end where we share some exclusive info not everyone may know about either of us! 
If you want to connect with Ang more you can find him @angcampanellachiro or visit the clinic by booking here.
I hope you enjoy getting to know my soul mate! It is truly a blessing to be able to share him with you all. Share this with someone who will love it too!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced!

      <title>Nancy Sokarno on healthy procrastination &amp; people pleasing</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/39-nancy-sokarno-on</link>
      <description>Can procrastination be healthy? Do you notice how your energy shifts around certain people or places? Are you not too confident putting up a boundary if you haven’t already done so?
Today I'm joined by my first guest ever, Nancy Sokarno, or some of you may know her a Psych With Sokz! We chat all things from what to expect from therapy (I feel like no one shares this information?), and how this can help you being preventative in terms of your mental health - so many of us are quick to do this for our bodies by exercising, so it's time to spread the word on doing the same for our minds 🧠
Further, what Monsters Zinc has to do with your energy and why you should care, noticing how things and situations make us feel, and finding what lights you up. There's a little vent about procrastination, when this is a curse, and actually identifying when it can be a really a healthy thing! We finish with a shout out to all people pleasers (me included), and dive deep into setting boundaries - after all, if you're living to please someone else, your boundaries are probably very low or non existent! 
You can connect with Nancy more @psychwithsokz or by visiting her website here.
The article we mentioned can also be found here.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Can procrastination be healthy? Do you notice how your energy shifts around certain people or places? Are you not too confident putting up a boundary if you haven’t already done so?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today I'm joined by my first guest ever, Nancy Sokarno, or some of you may know her a Psych With Sokz! We chat all things from what to expect from therapy (I feel like no one shares this information?), and how this can help you being preventative in terms of your mental health - so many of us are quick to do this for our bodies by exercising, so it's time to spread the word on doing the same for our minds 🧠&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Further, what Monsters Zinc has to do with your energy and why you should care, noticing how things and situations make us feel, and finding what lights you up. There's a little vent about procrastination, when this is a curse, and actually identifying when it can be a really a healthy thing! We finish with a shout out to all people pleasers (me included), and dive deep into setting boundaries - after all, if you're living to please someone else, your boundaries are probably very low or non existent! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can connect with Nancy more @&lt;a href="https://www.instagram.com/psychwithsokz/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;psychwithsokz&lt;/a&gt; or by visiting her website &lt;a href="https://www.psychwithsokz.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;u&gt;here&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;The article we mentioned can also be found &lt;a href="https://bedthreads.com.au/blogs/journal/people-pleaser-dangers-psychologist-tips-to-stop" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Check in to socials for our giveaway!

      <title>*GUIDED MEDITATION* 10 Minute Body Scan with Tom Sullivan 🧘</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/guided-meditation-balancer-body-scan-with-tom-sullivan</link>
      <description>A body scan is my current obsession - the fastest way I've found to get out of my head, and into my body. Ten minutes is that perfect sweet spot where it's not too short, but not too long you can't make time for it. Use this to check in with yourself, have a break, reconnect with your intuition or just to let go! I love using on my commutes (all except when I'm driving) or when I want to drift into a deep sleep.
I'm joined by Tom Sullivan who some of you will recognises from Episode 29, who I've meditated with before and absolutely love the way he teaches this practice. You can connect with Tom more at @astillmind. 
NOT YOUR FIRST TIME HERE? Skip ahead to 3:25 to go past the intro and straight into the meditation! You can use this multiple times - it never gets old! Each time we sit &amp; practice, is a new opportunity to connect with ourselves in a new way.
Share it with someone else who needs some "me-time"! 🧘
With love &amp; enjoy!

      <title>MM12 Why you must revisit/edit/delete goals (+ it's our bday)! 🎉</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm12-why-you-must-revisit-your-goals-what-boundaries-arent-h</link>
      <description>🎉🎉 IT'S OUR BIRTHDAY! We're One Year old! To celebrate this month, we are bringing you double episodes &amp; some amazing guided meditations 🎉🎉
Today I wanted to go back full circle to where it all began - what does balance mean for you? It's important to revisit this to ensure where we are heading, still aligns with what we want. How many times do you set yourself a goal to then never re-visit, edit or even delete it? If your perspective or ideal of balance shifts, then your goals need to be re-jigged as well. We can't be too protective or fixed with something we wrote in the past. 
Join me as we reassess your balance right now, look at how you might want that to be different and as a result, how that impacts goals you may have set for yourself. SPEAKING OF goals, have you made any progress to yours yet? If not, it might be because (a) your idea of balance has shifted as so they need to be revisited or (b) you aren't setting your boundaries correctly.
I'll finish today's pod talking about boundaries, what they're not and how to stick to them!
If you love today's pod, share the birthday love and send it to a friend who will also love it! As always, a review/rating left on apple podcast, is a slice earned in my heart .... really! ❤️
Email me if you need the worksheet from today's ep: thebalancetheorypodcast@gmail.com
Until next time,
Stay Balanced!

      <title>Sharon &amp; Juna on humanising our prejudices &amp; the empathy piece </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/38-sharon-juna-on-humanising-our-prejudices-balance-in-socie</link>
      <description>No chat about Balance would be complete without a discussion on the balance in our society. Today I am joined by Crazy Biatch Asians podcast host's Sharon &amp; Juna who chat with me all things racism, awareness and what the current landscape in Australia looks like.
We can always do better! If we want to find balance, we need to acknowledge ourselves as moving parts of a coherent society. Tune in as we discuss casual and general racism, at which point it becomes insidious, how to get proper information, the role of politics and things you can do to help! The girls also give tips on how to work through any prejudices you have as well as share first hand experience with this present part of our society. I also ask them their thoughts on whether posting on social media is enough and loved their opinion on this, so I can't wait for you to dive in!
Connect more with the girls on IG @crazybiatchasians or checkout their podcast directly here.
Until next time, 
Stay Balanced!

        <![CDATA[<p>No chat about Balance would be complete without a discussion on the balance in our society. Today I am joined by Crazy Biatch Asians podcast host's Sharon &amp; Juna who chat with me all things racism, awareness and what the current landscape in Australia looks like.</p><br><p>We can always do better! If we want to find balance, we need to acknowledge ourselves as moving parts of a coherent society. Tune in as we discuss casual and general racism, at which point it becomes insidious, how to get proper information, the role of politics and things you can do to help!

      <description>If you're anything like me, you love learning about how you can bolster your day to day experience through the foods you eat. Today, Advanced Sports Dietitian and strategist at My Muscle Chef, Ryan Pinto, sits down and chats to me about all things food &amp; diet.
We chat about why fat loss diets actually work and tips for starting one, how to create awareness round food (beyond the carb-protein-fat breakdown), using foods (yes not tablets) as supplements and the best go to snacks so you don't fall off your healthy food train. Further we dove into the best foods to enhance sleep &amp; energy as well as the infamous intermittent fasting diet and if you're predisposed to be 'good' at it. Wrapped in this too is eating alongside a menstrual cycle &amp; tips if you have flatlined in your results and need some advice.
I loved learning more about this area in today's chat &amp; I know you will too! Share this with someone who will also enjoy it. 
Tune in for a sneaky discount for My Muscle Chef at the end.

      <title>Courtney Mangan on communication styles &amp; finding your fire </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/36-courtney-mangan-aka-productivity-queen-on-showing-up-as-y</link>
      <description>Today I am joined by Courtney Mangan, owner of multiple successful businesses, including the host of one of my favourite podcasts, "She was the fire" 🔥. Productivity queen shares her journey from living a comfortable, risk free life, when at 30, her world was flipped upside down when she was told that she had skin cancer. She shares her story of honouring the skin you’re in, as well as sharing her knowledge and tips on living your most productive life. 
We dive into how to show up as yourself, breaking free from the judgement of others (and not waiting for something dire to do so), tips for juggling a lot and how to set (and reset) goals. Another topic we spoke about which I adore is communication styles and why these are critical not only for your relationships, but for your self care - I mean, do you know how you like to be communicated with? This and much more explored in today's pod.
You can connect with Courtney more and all of her other businesses on IG at @courtneymangan or check out the She Was The Fire podcast here!
Share this ep with someone who will love it as much as you! ♥️

      <title>Madelyn Carafa (The Healthy Hustlers) on the healthy hustle</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/35-madelyn-carafa-on-balance-as-contentment-creating-space-a</link>
      <description>Today the host of The Healthy Hustlers joins us for a chat! After many years climbing the never ended corporate ladder, Madelyn Carafa waved goodbye to a job title and salary she once thought defined her success and embarked on a life full of good health, nourishing conversations, and a career that fulfilled her soul. We chat about finding what lights you up, transitioning into your passion, what it means to juggle everything and how to do it in a healthy was as well as all things self awareness. Madelyn shares her personal story from being in corporate, to running her own business, to being a new mumma as well as insight into her own spiritual journey.
She also shares the inspo behind her poddy which is one so closely linked to our own theory, which I LOVE! You can connect more with Madelyn and the podcast through the below links.

      <title>MM11. Are you working hard enough, making the hustle healthy &amp; tolerance windows  👩‍💻</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm11-are-you-working-hard-enough-making-the-hustle-healthy-a</link>
      <description>Ever felt that shame or guilt when you aren't getting enough done, or maybe when you're doing too much, you're guilty of not taking enough care of yourself? There seems to be a constant issue on both ends of the spectrum - that is, hustle versus self care.
I was sick of the two feeling like polar opposites and constantly at the expense of the other, so this episode is my attempt to make sense of the hustle/self care spectrum, find where you sit on it, and help you own your own definitions of hard work. Once we have self awareness as to what hard work means to us, we can firstly, accept and own where we are, and two, pass less judgement towards others in their own ideals of business and hard work.
I know that hustling is a badge of honour many of us like to wear, but how do we make it healthy, our own, and sustainable? That is what we will dive deep into together on today's pod! 
Stay Balanced.

There seems to be a constant issue on both ends of the spectrum - that is, hustle versus self care.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was sick of the two feeling like polar opposites and constantly at the expense of the other, so this episode is my attempt to make sense of the hustle/self care spectrum, find where you sit on it, and help you own your own definitions of hard work. Once we have self awareness as to what hard work means to us, we can firstly, accept and own where we are, and two, pass less judgement towards others in their own ideals of business and hard work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know that hustling is a badge of honour many of us like to wear, but how do we make it healthy, our own, and sustainable?

      <title>Efia Sulter on toxic positivity &amp; manifesting an extraordinary life  </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/34-efia-sulfer-on</link>
      <description>From being orphaned at 14, to grappling with mental illness and chronic pain, to then moving overseas and building her soul-aligned life + business empowering other woman, Efia has learned how to dream big and not settle for what's within her realms of probability. She is a Mindset &amp; Manifestation Coach, NLP practitioner and host of ‘The Manifest Edit Podcast’.
Today we chat about how to manifest an extraordinary life, what the missing piece to the law of attraction really is, why we need the ups and downs of life, why you need to be EXTREMELY careful thinking you need to be positive all the time, and on that note, why happiness shouldn't be your sole focus goal. Another amazing thing we discuss which is super close to my heart, is why we need to give "negative" emotions air time, rather than shun them or feel guilt/shame around them. All of this &amp; more to get you in the right head space to set intentions &amp; goals, or just surrender to your world! 
Her mission is to empower and teach ambitious women how to manifest their EXTRAORDINARY life by overcoming their limiting beliefs, finding and living their soul’s purpose and connecting to their intuition. To connect with Efia more, you can find her on IG @efiasulter_, on her website effytalkslife.com or head over to her podcast anchor.fm/themanifestedit. As mentioned, her free Manifestation Master class can be located at https://effytalkslife.com/myd-masterclass. 
I know you're going to get so much out of this episode! Take a screen shot and tag us @thebalancetheory and @efiasulter_ and share your biggest take away!
If you want to keep seeing more of this content, you can subscribe on both Apple Podcasts &amp; Spotify, and leave us a review/rating!
Until next week, stay Balanced!

Brittney is an accredited Master trainer with over 5 years’ experience in the Fitness industry.

We chat a range of topics from finding a balance with extreme &amp; restrictive diets, to thinking about the longevity of our lives in all of our habits, finding what stirs motivation, how to avoid burnout, and tips on how to kick start a fitness regime (or shake it up if you're feeling as though you have plateaued)!
It's impossible to include all the goodness in this short wrap up, just do yourself a favour and tune in (and share the poddy with someone else who will love it too)! You can connect with Britt more on IG @brittactive.

      <title>Leah Itsines on why you need to add things to your diet, not take them away </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/32-leah-itsines-on-striking-a-balance-with-food-and-why-you-</link>
      <description>Have you ever considered the "WHY" behind your relationship with food? 🍴How does your lifestyle accomodate or take away from this purpose? And have you ever thought about a contingency plan when dieting? 
Today I chat with the lovely Leah Itsines, a self-taught Aussie cook with a mission to help men, women and children all over the world change their view on food and health. Leah shares how BARE has steered away from traditional calorie counting, and uses more holistic forms of measuring progress. We also chat about why when dieting, you need to think of what you can ADD to your diet, rather than what you can take away - a concept not many of us would've considered, especially when it comes to weight loss. She also shares with us her thoughts on daily habits &amp; rituals, and you will be pleasantly surprised at her responses (it isn't your usual morning routine). 
Tune in to this episode for a sneaky discount on all BARE programs. Leah is a #1 best selling author and has two online food programs that are changing women’s lives all over the world! You can connect with Leah more on IG @leahitsines or her website www.leahitsines.com.au.
Share this with someone who will love it as much as you!
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

      <title>MM10 The reason why you can't move on or let go of that grudge</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm10-why-you-cant-seem-to-let-go-of-grudges-and-how-to-do-it</link>
      <description>Are you currently holding onto a grudge or something that you actually really want to let go? What keeps us stuck when we want to move on? Most important, how can we let go? 🤔
 
Today we are going to dive into these questions, talk about how you can pinpoint the source of your grudge, understand what’s actually going on with it, get to a state of forgiveness and move on once and for all from what can often feel like a ball &amp; chain situation. There are two keys I share which are fundamental to understanding the blockages, and then unlocking them - which is KEY to maintaining our state of Balance. 
After listening to this episode, you will only be ACTIVLEY choosing to maintain a grudge as you will have the answers of how to truly free yourself.
For access to the free step-by-step PDF, search "The Balance Theory" on Facebook groups, and request to join our growing community. 
If you enjoy this, let me know or share it with a friend who can benefit! 
Until next time,
Stay Balanced.

      <title>Nadia on why you don't need to do ALL of the things to feel balanced</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/31-nadia-on-why-balance-can-feel-exhausting-staying-your-own</link>
      <description>If you're someone who gets tired just thinking about all the "things" you supposedly need to feel balanced, then this one's for you!  A discussion on why you don't need to do ALL of the things (and before the sun comes up), staying in your own lane, putting yourself first, the importance of HIGH quality down time and why you really need to give up trying to control everything around you.
Today we mix it up and I interview one of you guys, a fellow Balancer! Nadia has listened from the very beginning, reached out to share some key takeaways with me and I thought, why not share this with our beautiful community! Many of you will really resonate with what Nadia shares today.

      <title>Tony Wilson on the misnomers of productivity + is motivation BS? </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/30-tony-wilson-on-sustaining-high-performance-without-burnin</link>
      <description>Have you ever gotten into work early and felt like you got way more done in that hour than a regular hour? Or maybe you find the tasks you hate most seem to take the longest? Whether you're already nodding your head or find you're yo-yoing in performance, you've chosen the right episode to tune into!
Today I chat with Tony Wilson who is an expert in human performance and works with people to create the right environment for them to thrive and maintain high performance whilst avoiding BURNOUT. We chat about how we can get clear on and respect our balance, debunk some misnomers about productivity, tips on how to make the most of your weekend/spare time and all things performance.
You can expect to wrap your head around how to actually define your balance, a winning mindset, getting in the zone and how to maintain it and why motivation may (or may not) be a whole lot of BS.
Jump on our IG and enter the competition to win one of Tony's Focus Planners - week of this podcast release only!

      <title>Tom Sullivan on why we are training ourselves NOT to focus</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/29-tom-sullivan-on-why-we-are-training-ourselves-not-to-focu</link>
      <description>Feel like negative thoughts always pop up when you try to meditate? Maybe you can't focus? Today I chat with a friend, Tom Sullivan who is a qualified meditation teacher, speaker and author of A Still Mind, on all things Meditation, how to get cracking and what to do when you feel distracted!
He shares his story as to how he fell into meditation and how it has given him that 'something more' in life. From resistance, to negativity or mindfulness, meditation can be a useful tool to deal with these. We also chat about how you might be unconsciously training your mind to NOT FOCUS, cues for what to actually do (even if you only have 5 minutes) and why we shouldn't ignore negative thoughts.
You're going to love this episode, especially if you already have a meditation practice or looking to get cracking. Tag us on IG and share your biggest takeaways! You can find Tom @astillmind.
Share this with a fellow yogi or meditation lover!
Stay Balanced.

      <title> MM9 Why you might find gratitude hard &amp; the hedonic treadmill </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm9-erika-on-why-you-might-find-gratitude-hard-to-embrace-ti</link>
      <description>If you're someone that finds gratitude hard or as though you get a mind blank when it comes to crunch time, then this is for you. Also, if you haven’t really thought about how or why a practice of it might feature in your life, then you're also going to get a lot out of todays pod! We all know the benefits of gratitude so I'm not here to restate them, rather share my own personal challenges &amp; break throughs with it. I dive into two reasons why our society has conditioned us to NOT be grateful, but disclaimer, once you hear these, it's up to you to undo the hard wired damage, and think with a grateful heart moving forwards!
I talk about the dissatisfaction loop and end on 4 easy tips on how you can start practicing gratefulness right now (and no you don't need to allocate 35 minutes everyday with your eyes closed, it's easier than you think)!

      <title>Tommy Kerr on redefining yourself at low moments</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/27-tommy-kerr-on-rediscovering-your-purpose-embracing-vulner</link>
      <description>Today I chat with Tommy, co-founder of La Cure and wellness enthusiast. We start diving deep into Tommy's moment of truth - where he was forced away from a career he thought he would pursue, followed by an accident which landed him in jail, to a completely revised outlook on life and purpose. This time gave him the opportunity to do the inner work and develop habits that still help him in tough moments today.
We also deliberate over why men's mental health is less spoken about, the benefits of cold exposure (especially if you're someone who hates the cold), meditation and all things recovery. Infrared or traditional sauna? When to do cold exposure? What's a float and why should you do it? This and more answered from the recovery man himself.
Connect with Tommy more on IG @tommykerrr17. Share this with a friend who would benefit!

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/26-catherine-adelle-on-naturopathy-the-gut-supplements-and-e</link>
      <description>Today I chat with Catherine Adelle a wonderful Naturopath, and yes I say this from experience, as she is my Naturopath! She has taught me so much, that I wanted to have her on, pick her brain and share it all with you guys! You can expect info about what Naturopathy is, does and its approach, tests you can do to learn about the present state of your health (and they don't have to break the bank either), why you really shouldn't pick up any probiotic from the shelf, things you should know about Arma Force, things you need to ask for it to come up on your blood test and a biohack all chocolate lovers will be here for!
Seriously I can't even type up everything we spoke about, just do yourself a favour and tune in (and share the ep with someone else)! You can connect with Catherine more at info@catherineadelle.com.

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Today I chat with Catherine Adelle a wonderful Naturopath, and yes I say this from experience, as she is my Naturopath! She has taught me so much, that I wanted to have her on, pick her brain and share it all with you guys! You can expect info about what Naturopathy is, does and its approach, tests you can do to learn about the present state of your health (and they don't have to break the bank either), why you really shouldn't pick up any probiotic from the shelf, things you should know about Arma Force, things you need to ask for it to come up on your blood test and a biohack all chocolate lovers will be here for!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seriously I can't even type up everything we spoke about, just do yourself a favour and tune in (and share the ep with someone else)! You can connect with Catherine more at info@catherineadelle.com.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;A thanks to the sponsors of today's podcast, ES FIT @esfit__, tune in for a Balancer's discount!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Support this show &lt;a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory"&gt;http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Giuliano Gonzalez on a no BS mindset &amp; escaping the 9-5</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/25-giuliano-gonzalez-on-raw-mindset-self-awareness-and-escap</link>
      <description>After the first 3 minutes of today's pod, you may not believe me when I say Giuliano was in a job he hated just over a year ago. Tune in as he gets real &amp; raw about the mindset and self-awareness it took for him to become his own boss, follow his passions and create the lifestyle he wanted. We chat about dealing with high pressure situations, the reality of making lots of money and a no excuses mindset needed to keep you going (even on the bad days, yes they still come)!
If you hate feeling comfortable and want to push your self-awareness, you will love this pod! Share it with a fellow Balancer needing some real talk.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm8-how-to-get-the-perfect-routine-with-your-host-erika</link>

Wait, are you even a morning person!? PLUS a discussion on why we should also pay attention to our night routines equally! How you go to bed is just as important as how you are waking up.
Tune in as I chat about how you can get on top of your routine and own it! I also share 5 tips for a night routine and dive into why bedtime is just as sacred as waking up.

      <title>Katie Williams on the mindset of a champion &amp; manifestation</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/24-katie-williams-on-the-mindset-of-a-champion-manifestation</link>
      <description>Today I chat with the incredible Katie Williams, one of the country’s former leading beach sprinters and current host of the Better For It Podcast. We discuss what mindset is required to become an athletic champion, and with it, the powers of manifestation, taking inspired action and goal setting. We go deep into the moment that changed it all for her, the event that lead to a pivot in her career, and a complete reconfiguration of what healthy meant to her. 
Katie shares how still to this day, it's the daily steps &amp; 1%'s that add up to a whole - a lesson for us all in the face of goal setting. We also dive into the meaning of self-love and some challenges she has explored on her own podcast. She recommends trying her meditation one if any which is linked below.
You can connect with Katie on IG @katiewilliams. Be sure to share this with a friend who will enjoy it as much as you! Stay Balanced.

      <title>Hayley Westoby on why we have over-glorified being busy </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/22-hayley-westoby-on-goal-setting-habit-stacking-why-we-have</link>
      <description>Today I sit and chat with the beautiful Hayley Westoby. We discuss her journey into and through the fitness world, and within this, the difference between weight loss and fitness goals and when is the right time to shift them. Speaking of goals, feel like you set them and forget them? We do a deep dive into why that might be and how you can stay on track from January &amp; beyond!
We also chat through Habit Stacking as an effective tool to staying on track and why you shouldn't scroll on the gram in your kitchen.
Share this episode with a fellow Balancer! You can connect with Hayley more @hayleywestoby.
Enjoy!

      <title>MM7 Ending the year with a B-A-N-G! </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm7-ending-2020-with-a-b-a-n-g</link>
      <description>We've made it! The final month of 2020! There is no better way to wrap this year up and send it off, than with a BANG! Today I take you through a personal exercise I have curated to help me in my own reflection and assessment of my year. This can be used at any stage to help you process and understand your priorities moving forward. When I say BANG, I not only mean fireworks and all, but I am talking about B for Balance, A for Appreciation, N for Novelty and G for Growth - all key things I believe are essential to any contemplation of the year gone by, and that to come.
I hope you enjoy the final muse of 2020! Share this with someone who will benefit from it. If you like what you're hearing, tell me! I greatly appreciate + love connecting with you all. 
Until next time, stay balanced!

      <title>Carla Bignasca on how a drunk night eating pizza turned into a career as a PT</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-19-carla-bignasca-on-lifes-rollercoaster-body-image-caree</link>
      <description>Today I chat with Carla Bignasca, who most of you probably know as Bigsy (spoiler alert), from many prominent Radio &amp; Media platforms. We do a deep dive into life's rollercoaster cycles, from tea hacks and her mum's weird habits, to how a drunk night eating pizza resulted in her becoming a PT. 
Within this fun &amp; light-hearted chat, we cover career shifting, going from burn out to what you love, finding a tribe, yoyo dieting, body image and breaking up with friends. SO MUCH covered today, I can't wait for you to listen! Just remember, no one has their sh*t together, and it's ok. You can reach out to Carla or get to know her more @carlabignasca.
Be sure to share this episode with someone who will love it! 
Until next time,
Stay Balanced

      <itunes:subtitle>&lt;p&gt;Today I chat with Carla Bignasca, who most of you probably know as Bigsy (spoiler alert), from many prominent Radio &amp;amp; Media platforms. We do a deep dive into life's rollercoaster cycles, from tea hacks and her mum's weird habits, to how a drunk night eating pizza resulted in her becoming a PT. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Within this fun &amp;amp; light-hearted chat, we cover career shifting, going from burn out to what you love, finding a tribe, yoyo dieting, body image and breaking up with friends. SO MUCH covered today, I can't wait for you to listen! Just remember, no one has their sh*t together, and it's ok. You can reach out to Carla or get to know her more @carlabignasca.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be sure to share this episode with someone who will love it! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until next time,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay Balanced&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Support this show &lt;a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory"&gt;http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Founder of EXIE shares things all businesses should hear </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-18-christina-founder-of-exie-on-sustainability-the-health</link>
      <description>Today we rethink Balance with Fashion designer and founder of EXIE (fyi one of my favourite gym wear brands), Christina @christinaexie. In delving into her life's journey, we chat about her experience from winning Project Runway, to now managing her own growing label. Within this, a very fun and real conversation about limiting beliefs, habits, healthy competition and sustainability.
If you're an existing or emerging business, there's a really valuable segment towards the end of this show containing Christina's advice! Even I made several notes to self - info which can be translated into our personal lives too.

      <title>Nick Vagerakas on finding purpose + being in a state of flow</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-17-nick-vagerakas-on-finding-purpose-embracing-change-res</link>
      <description>Today I chat with Nick Vagerakas and have a damn down to earth chat about LIFE! Well specifically, his life ventures to date! 
Some of you may know Nick as the co-founder of Sydney Fitness Movement 'RUNDAY', however, today we get a little more personal with him. Nick has had a big shift in priorities recently and reconnected with his 'Why' in a completely new way. We go through the tools and tips he has used and trialled on his journey, on all things from his morning routine, to the power of identifying as a superhero. Some awesome topics including non-negotiable habits, taking the plunge with your career, owning vulnerabilities and being open to opportunities.
I hope you love this raw chat as much as I did! You can chat/connect with Nick more on IG @nv_ascension_guide  - be sure to also check out the awesome work Runday is doing @rundayau. 
Be sure to leave a review/rating on your favourite channel if you love this pod, or share it with a friend who may benefit from the wealth of knowledge shared today.

      <title>Alessandra Edwards on the DNA of performance + stretching genetic limits</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-16-alessandra-edwards-on-the-dna-of-performance-and-stret</link>
      <description>Beyond the shaped molecule, DNA can tell us SO much more about our genetic tendencies, existence and capabilities. Alessandra Edwards is a performance expert and keynote speaker who’s obsessed with one question: how far can we stretch our genetic limit so we can achieve our maximum potential. She specialises in high-performance, and explains why it's a sexy area to talk about. 
Join our conversation today as we question what DNA can tell us, how we can find it out, the different genetic types and what that means for you and my favourite, if it's written in your code, does that mean you can't change it? 
Be prepared to be mind blown, especially if you've never heard of using your genes/DNA as a basis for performance. You can find out more at https://alessandraedwards.com and also download her '30 tips to increase energy'. Also stay tuned for her book titled "The DNA of Performance" which is available for pre-sale on her website.

      <title>MM6 Free yourself from machine time &amp; bringing back human time </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm6-freeing-ourselves-from-machine-time-and-bringing-back-hu</link>
      <description>This mini segment today goes into Kronos v Kairos time and why it's important. We're all run by the clock, there's no doubt about it. But what if we could (on the daily) engage in human time, away from clocks and calendars? You know those moments where time feels like it goes on forever? How good would it feel to have moments like that in each and every single day. 
Tune in to hear my thoughts on how we might be able to do this! I've kept it short and sweet this week. Enjoy!

How good would it feel to have moments like that in each and every single day.

      <title>Scott Halford on why we are retiring too early / pt 2</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/15-are-rituals-habits-essential-the-brain-based-culture-and-</link>
      <description>Today we follow on from last week's discussion on all things about Brain Balance! We continue discussing Scott's 5 stress erasers, how to optimise breaks at work, if rituals and habits are essential, and why we are retiring too early! This is just as juicy &amp; info packed as the first episode! My favourite part was the understanding that we can continuously grow our brain - even as we get old! We have no choice about the shrinking part, but there are certainly things we can do to sustain it long term. 
If you loved this chat, you will really enjoy Scott's book 'Activate Your Brain' available on Amazon. I would strongly recommend picking yourself up a copy! Learn more at http://scotthalford.com. Be sure to leave a review/rating on your favourite channel if you love this pod, or share it with a friend who may benefit from the wealth of knowledge shared today.

      <title>Scott Halford on Brain Balance + our constant desire for control / pt 1</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/14-scott-halford-on-brain-balance-our-constant-desire-for-co</link>
      <description>Do we really only use 10% of our brains? Why do we always feel like we need to be in control of everything (I'm talking to you back seat drivers!) Is our intelligence confined to the size of our brain? These and SO much more answered in today's pod.
Tune in as writer and long-time professional speaker and educator of businesspeople worldwide, Scott Halford enlightens us all the way from Colorado on all things regarding our key Balance Organ - the brain. His experience is based on brain-based behavioural science, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, and influence. Today we talk about how to leverage off our desire for control, how universal wisdom comes to be, why coffee is your friend and the impacts of stress today, and long term. 
Speaking of stress, Scott shares his 5 stress erasers which are easy to adopt and could change your life experience! I'd love to hear if you give these a go. If you love this episode, then you need to get your hands on Scott's book 'Activate Your Brain' which is actually how I came across Scott's work in the first place. It is super easy to digest and so interesting!

      <title>Sarah Liz King explains PCOS /HA + intuitive eating </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-13-sarah-liz-king-on-optimising-your-fitness-regime-with-</link>
      <description>You know when it's that time of the month and you couldn't think of anything worse than exercising? Listen in as Health Coach and Exercise Physiologist Sarah Liz King discusses how we can and should optimise our training regime alongside the phases of our menstrual cycle. We also chat about PCOS &amp; Hypothalamic Amenorrhea - how can you know which one you have and what are the differences in terms of your training and diet? Oh and what about the pill, can that really help or hinder menstrual issues? Sarah shares all her insight and opinion on today's pod.
Lastly we do a deep dive into intuitive eating - what does this buzz word actually mean and how can we become intuitive eaters? I loved this chat so much and learned a whole bunch about my body and biology.
I would strongly recommend checking out Sarah's own podcast "Holistic Health Radio" for a deeper dive into these topic areas. Further, you can check out more through IG @sarahlizking or by visiting her website https://sarahlizking.com. Here's also the direct link to Part 1 of her 3 part series on PCOS v HA: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/is-pcos-or-hypothalamic-amenorrhea-causing-your-missing/id1455903870?i=1000484983470.

      <title>MM5 All of your bad relationships have one thing in common - you </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm5-all-of-your-bad-relationships-have-one-thing-in-common-y</link>
      <description>So, if you're the common denominator amongst all of your bad relationships, you either need to change your mindset or get real and finally spring clean the relationship room (eek yes I know you probably don't want to hear it)! Sometimes this isn’t always as easy as it sounds, especially when it’s family or colleagues, so tune in for my thoughts on these tricky areas.
I’ll also muse a little on the concept of control and whether this is causing the “negativity” you perceive. Let’s channel your thoughts and emotions around “bad” relationships … after all, they’re JUST as toxic as “bad” thoughts, feelings, foods &amp; drink. Listen and find out where you stand!
Disclaimer: I am not. Psychologist or a professional in coaching relationships and this is purely my own personal advice &amp; thoughts (which I’m hoping you will resonate with to some degree!)
If you enjoy this weeks episode, it would mean the world to me if you to share it with someone you think will love it, or leave us a rating/review on your preferred channel ♡ 
Stay Balanced

Exercise from this week:

Take a few DEEP breaths

Think of people who light you up

Two points of gratitude linked to why they light you up (GO DEEP!)

Now that you're calm &amp; positive, re-think of a negative relationship and consider if there are any aspects of point 3 that you think can potentially relate to this one. If the answer is no, then you know what you need to do.

      <itunes:summary>So, if you're the common denominator amongst all of your bad relationships, you either need to change your mindset or get real and finally spring clean the relationship room (eek yes I know you probably don't want to hear it)! Sometimes this isn’t always as easy as it sounds, especially when it’s family or colleagues, so tune in for my thoughts on these tricky areas.
I’ll also muse a little on the concept of control and whether this is causing the “negativity” you perceive. Let’s channel your thoughts and emotions around “bad” relationships … after all, they’re JUST as toxic as “bad” thoughts, feelings, foods &amp; drink. Listen and find out where you stand!
Disclaimer: I am not. Psychologist or a professional in coaching relationships and this is purely my own personal advice &amp; thoughts (which I’m hoping you will resonate with to some degree!)
If you enjoy this weeks episode, it would mean the world to me if you to share it with someone you think will love it, or leave us a rating/review on your preferred channel ♡ 
Stay Balanced

Exercise from this week:

Take a few DEEP breaths

Think of people who light you up

Two points of gratitude linked to why they light you up (GO DEEP!)

Now that you're calm &amp; positive, re-think of a negative relationship and consider if there are any aspects of point 3 that you think can potentially relate to this one. If the answer is no, then you know what you need to do.

      <title>Kath Ebbs on the real meaning of healthy &amp; labels </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/ep-11-kath-ebbs-on-the-real-meaning-of-healthy-branding-your</link>
      <description>Do you feel like you can't specifically identify with any single 'version' of yourself? Hello to you multilayered human - meet Kath Ebbs - a young woman who has experienced the pressures and difficulty of commercialising and branding your personality for social media. Today Kath shares her journey and struggles in subsiding to a single e-version of 'her' and how she has evolved to maintain a more authentic self online (no hate to those of you who really thrive off and know exactly who your e-persona is!) Similarly, sexuality to Kath, always felt like a box to be ticked. We dive into how she is a multilayered human who in fact doesn't like labels or ticking boxes at all!
We also speak about her relationship with health and being healthy - you'll be happy to know we both agree healthy can mean having the ice cream! It also means absolutely going for a run sometimes - it's all about reading your body signs! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did recording it. You can find out more about Kath by visiting her IG @kathebbss.
I know you're going to love this episode! Be sure to share it with a friend who might love it too.

      <title>MM4 Why failing is an essential and key friend! </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm4-getting-started-and-why-failing-is-an-essential-and-key-</link>
      <description>Today I share my thoughts on "beginnings" and their close but common link to "failing". I think the fear of failing, and the emotions associated with 'new beginnings' often prevent people from getting started A LOT more than they should. I share some insights into how we can reframe our understanding and connection to these feelings, and kick beginnings in the butt!

      <title>Antoinette Lattouf on a miracle story with a curious realisation</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/6-antoinette-lattouf-on-the-media-parenting-feelings-and-a-m</link>
      <description>Today I am honoured to have chatted with the wonderful Antoinette Lattouf. We start with an interesting take on balance, specifically when it comes to the representation and cultural inequality within our current monolithic media landscape. The conversation then turns super raw and heart felt as Antoinette shares her challenges with balance, especially when it came to becoming a parent! Lastly we discuss a bit of a miracle story that said more about the people receiving the news than it did about what actually happened to her. An awesome chat, an incredible woman. To see more, you can follow her @antoinette_lattouf on IG.More about our guest:Antoinette is a multi award-winning journalist and a diversity advocate. She’s a senior journalist at Network 10 and the Director and co-founder of Media Diversity Australia. In 2019, she was named among AFR’s 100 Women of Influence. Antoinette is also an Ambassador for parents mental health organisation the Gidget Foundation and also for The Australian Thyroid Foundation.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm3-reframing-goals-and-actually-sticking-to-them</link>
      <description>Today I dive into Outcome Vs Process Goals. As we don't have control of the outcome most of the time, we're already setting ourselves up for failure by framing a goal in this way. Listen in as I talk about goals as process focused, and how this can profoundly impact your mindset &amp; ability to smash the bars you set for yourself! Let's get Balanced.

As we don't have control of the outcome most of the time, we're already setting ourselves up for failure by framing a goal in this way.

      <title>Todd on having a 'timeline' &amp; what is Ayahuasca?!</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/5-todd-on-being-present-having-a-timeline-insight-into-the-a</link>
      <description>Today Todd &amp; I chat about what it means to be present and have a timeline. I'm sure you have a rough idea of when and how you want milestones to occur in your life, but how willing are you to veer slightly off course? Tune in as we discuss the dangers that can come with rigid 'timelines' and how Todd has experienced this in his own life. I also had a ball diving into Todd's experience in the Amazon, and hearing him share his incredible personal &amp; spiritual transformation - if you have no idea what Ayahuasca is (or how to pronounce it), then buckle up and prepare to be mind blown.I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!  For more of the wonderful Todd, check out his Instagram, @todds_journey.Feel free to share this episode with someone who might enjoy it!

      <description>Is snacking bad for you? Should you try a FAD diet? Is avoiding Carbs really the answer?I had so much fun chatting with Dietitian and Nutritionist Jen from Equalution about all things diet &amp; nutrition. We dive into some juicy myth busting and hone in on her authentic perspective towards relationships with food. Like Balance, it's one that needs to be carefully assessed per person, and revised as life goes on. Check out more @jen.equalutionteam!

      <description>We have seen so many businesses and individuals rise above themselves and all expectations during this COVID era, to shake up their industries and really persevere in unique ways. I was humbled to have a chat with youngest entrepreneur we've had on the show so far, who shared her insights into not only what balance means to her, but how she stays on top of it (even amidst crazy challenges)!We do a deep dive into what challenges mean, really fleshing out the biggest one of 2020 - COVID - and how you can take these lessons and apply them to your personal lives. Be sure to check out Nat's pages: @nataliefraumeni &amp; @peckish.syd

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm2-why-its-vital-you-build-a-reputation-with-yourself</link>
      <description>Are you addicted (or have been) to other people’s approval? If your answer is yes, you are not alone! BUT, to use this as a metric for how you’re doing and going, is a bit of a slippery slope! Tune in to hear why you’re far better off investing that energy into building a reputation with yourself, across the three Balance Theory areas. This will hopefully give you some tips to by-pass the crowd’s opinion, and create a self confidence that will only fail you when you allow it to.

      <title>MM1 It's all about perspective </title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/thebalancetheory/episodes/mm1-youve-heard-it-before-but-have-you-listened-its-all-abou</link>
      <description>Introducing our first Monday Musings - a series brought from a thought, muse or topic of the week. Have you ever had a sudden shift in thought, which helped you reevaluate and perhaps overcome a difficult situation? Today I wanted to discuss the idea of Perspective - do you largely adopt a victim mentality or are you more opportunistic? Maybe you're one or the other, and weave in between the two. Tune in to hear my thoughts on how this is a key player in determining how you deal with adverse situations (or not!).
