Support podcast
This podcast is made for ambitious women who feel like they are constantly stuck having to choose between “work” and “life”. If you never have time for the things you really want to be doing, constantly find your self care or down time is rushed and unproductive (or non-existent) and regularly experience guilt and that feeling you should be doing more, I know exactly how you feel. It’s time to redefine what we’ve told ourselves about life balance and get inspired to own a better and more sustainable way to achieve it. And yes, that means ditching the work-life balance formula. Tune in to be inspired by bi-weekly episodes on with guests including Kelsey Wells, Steph Claire Smith, Laura Henshaw, Leah Itsines, Sarah Davidson, Katie Williams and more. Join us every Monday for a guest episode and every Thursday for a solo episode by your host Erika De Pellegrin.If you’re ready to take balance back into your own hands, then this podcast is for you.

BTS Things everyone on their self growth journey needs to know
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.If you’ve been loving this content and want to keep seeing it, let us know by dropping a review or rating wherever you’re listening it would mean the world to me and helps us continue to grow the show!Until next time,Stay BalancedP.S.

BTS If you thrive in busyness but feel guilty for it, this one's for you
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 & 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.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!EPISODE LINK - "How to make more time for the things you love" episodeUntil next time,Stay BalancedSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory.

Marlo Grover on finding joyful movement and proactive self care
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_fitBe sure to send across this episode to someone who you think will enjoy it too! Until next time, Stay Balanced P.S.

BTS Why failing is an essential part of any journey
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! 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!Until next time,Stay BalancedP.S.
