Everyone has dreams and ideas that they push away or dismiss because they don't feel like they're ready.

The truth is, you'll NEVER be ready. You can do all the research in the world and all of that effort usually leads people to deciding that their idea isn't good enough to try.

Here's a tip - start before you are ready. Give it a shot. What's the worst thing that will happen? If the worst thing that happens is that you learn and move on, then start now and don't look back. You either succeed or your learn - there's no failing here. You can talk yourself out of anything so give yourself a dose of optimism and take the chance. Not only will you grow stronger through the process, you will inspire others to put themselves out there and try something new as well. So make the choice - live your life with regrets or live a life filled with new opportunities, exciting changes and lessons learned along the way.

It's up to you.   

It's time to take a deep dive into - yourself.

Katie and Daniel go through an exercise that is so easy to do, their four kids did it with them!

It might be simple, but it gets you really in tune with the good and bad about yourself...listen to what they learned, how it applies to their self awareness, and how you can use it for your family, your colleagues and yourself.

It's another live request episode of Balance, and you want to hear about assistants.

When do you need one? How do you find one? What should you look for?

We've been through the process and regardless of what you are looking for, one thing is certain - you'll be a lot better off if you prepare properly. Spoiler alert - we had 100 applications for our assistant's role, and we you will too...that's not the key, it's how to find the right one through all the noise.

Enjoy!

It's the first episode we've done by request - a viewer wanted us to talk about 'how we do it'...a loaded question about balancing four kids, a business, family...etc. We answer that question real quick in this episode and then go on to give you some useful tips and tricks on how to manage YOUR time.

Time management is about only a few key habits, and no matter how busy you are - you can learn them, and you can master them.
