Life doesn’t always go to plan. And sometimes, pressing pause is exactly what we need.

​

In this honest and heartfelt episode, Alanna Ball, founder and host of Women in Safety, opens up about her personal journey, including a recent ADHD diagnosis that changed how she sees herself—and her work.

​

After stepping away from the mic for a while, Alanna shares the real reasons behind the podcast hiatus, the mental load she was carrying, and why talking openly about mental health is more important than ever in the health and safety profession.

​

From navigating burnout to rediscovering joy in her work, Alanna brings a raw and reflective energy that so many women will relate to—especially those quietly juggling their careers, families, and invisible struggles.

​

This episode is a reminder that you’re not alone, and you don’t have to have it all figured out. Women in Safety is here to lift each other up, share the hard stuff, and keep the conversations going.
