In this episode we talk about how we strive for balance and manage all our competing priorities; parenting, full-time jobs, wellness and everything in between. It was a timely episode for us as we’re currently juggling working, trying to adhere to an intense exercise regime, all while our toddler is home with Chicken Pox.

For us we focus on four key steps to set ourselves up for success, starting with goal setting and aligning on our priorities for they year, weekly planning & scheduling, being okay with change and doing a weekly review to constantly evolve and improve. We do our weekly review live on this episode, because it was overdue, and we came up with some solutions to improve some areas that have been lagging in our life. We have found that following these steps helps us not only achieve balance, but also hit our goals while avoiding resentment. It’s been a process and we are always working on getting better in this area.
