Balancing Busy

Send us Fan Mail

In today's episode, we are digging into the big question: Is it possible to be able to feel great as we age? Or do we just need to recognize and accept that as we get older, we're losing that pep in our steps.  As we hit 30, 40, 50, 60, can we still have the same vibrance and energy, or is that just not possible?

This is one of the questions that I have wrestled with over the last couple years, especially after hitting 40 and just really trying to understand what is the right way to optimize my health. So I went to the founders of Infinite Health Integrative Medical Center Center in New Orleans, LaNae and Dr. Trip Goolsby to pick their brains about the best things we can expect from our bodies as we age and how we can optimize our health and life.

I really want to understand as a woman who is aging, how can I do it more gracefully? How can I maintain the energy that I used to have and what can I do for my body to help it to just run at its best as I age so that it's graceful and so that I can stay really healthy and energetic. I want to keep up with my kids and someday my grandkids and maybe even my great-grandkids. So let's jump in!

This episode will help:

👉  Anyone create a medical mastermind for yourself 
👉 Busy moms create a visualization of what optimal health looks like
👉 Each of us realize the power of our thoughts on our overall health

Becoming a better decision-maker can change your life. Truly, your entire life can improve when you become more confident as a decision-maker. But how do we get there? How do we get past the decision paralysis, fatigue, and outright fear when it comes to making decisions? 

One of the things that makes me really sad is when I see people who are so indecisive that opportunities pass them by because they waited too long. They’re stuck in indecision.

I get it, decision fatigue is a very real thing. What we need is smart and simple strategies that we can use in making decisions from the littlest ones up to the biggest decisions of our lives.

In this episode of Balancing Busy Podcast, I’m sharing my four rules to live by when it comes to decision-making.

This episode will help:

👉 Anyone and everyone simplify decision making
👉 The decision fatigued mom learn to make confident decisions
👉Take the fear out of making decisions

We are all about LESS, but BETTER around here. That whole work-life balance thing! We look at systems, automation, strategy... But none of that will matter if you don't know your REAL reason for balance. 

Stay with me, I'll explain... When we don't know our "why" we end up FILLING the space we create with MORE. And when we're not intentional, that "more" just becomes stuff that takes us away from what matter most. 

This episode will help: 
👉 Anyone who feels overwhelmed with work-life balance 
👉 Entrepreneurs get crystal clear on their WHY and their intentions with home and business 
👉 The work-from-home mom to come back to what matters most and set systems for success

Perhaps one of the most intimidating aspects of being a business owner is knowing what to say, and what I mean by that is what to write. Copywriting can be so tricky and there are so many elements within our business that need it. Whether we're talking about our Instagram bios, are newsletters, the words that we're putting on our website, sales copy.

All of it is built around copywriting, and if we can simplify copywriting, if we can have less of those moments where we're just stuck and more of the moments where we can pump it out and move on to the next thing. 

Today I am bringing in Kelsey Foremost, founder of Magic Words Copywriting to help us simplify copywriting and balance the busy better. 

This episode will help:

👉The entrepreneur who is stuck staring at the blinking cursor of death 
👉Anyone who feel intimidated by writing their own copy 
👉 Entrepreneurs learn how to write words that sell without sounding "salesy"

today's episode is a Love Letter to the Unsatisfied, the unsure, the woman who maybe feels like she should be so happy and yet isn't.  AND isn't even sure why. That was me. A few years ago I wrote a letter to myself  of trying to figure out how to be content, how to be happy, what was wrong with me, and why I wasn't, when everything looked like it should be so great. 

This is a brutally honest, wide open and heartfelt episode that I hope will leave you feeling seen, not alone, but also inspired.
