In this powerful episode of The Pilates Business Podcast, host Seran Glanfield challenges the traditional time management talk and dives deep into how studio owners can regain control of their time and energy. Instead of chasing productivity hacks and color-coded calendars, Seran explores the rhythms of life and business and how to align your schedule with what truly matters. 

From the burnout that comes with doing all the things to the real secret behind balance (spoiler: it's rhythm, not perfection), this episode is a must-listen for any boutique fitness business owner feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or just plain exhausted. 

Discover how to protect your energy, set meaningful priorities, and delegate like a boss so you can build a Pilates studio (or yoga or barre business) that supports your life—not consumes it.
