Do you ever feel like your job has completely taken over your life? You’re always working (or at least thinking about work), you’re exhausted, and the idea of eating healthy or working out feels impossible?

Yep… been there.

That’s exactly what my guest, Kim Ritter, went through when she was climbing the corporate ladder at Amazon. She was stressed, overworked, and stuck in that all-or-nothing cycle — either eating perfectly and working out nonstop, or falling off the wagon and feeling guilty. Eventually, she realized that what she was doing wasn’t sustainable and it was keeping her from actually feeling good in her life.

Now, Kim is a Certified Nutrition Coach and founder of Work Life Thrive, where she helps women like us finally find a way to take care of ourselves without giving up our careers, social lives, or favorite foods.

In this episode, Kim and I talk about:

• What it’s really like trying to balance work, health, and life when your job feels like your whole personality
• How to set boundaries so work doesn’t creep into every part of your day
• The simple mindset shift that helps you stay consistent without being “perfect”
• What to do after a binge or overeating (without beating yourself up)
• How to figure out which type of exercise actually works for you

If you’re tired of feeling burned out, guilty about food, or like you can’t stay consistent no matter what you try, this conversation will give you the tools (and the relief) you’ve been looking for.
