Register for my upcoming Masterclass: Thriving in Motherhood and Career: 3 Science-Backed Shifts to Let You Have Both – Without Burnout, Hustle, Sacrifice, or Guilt

You’ve been told to “find balance.”

Work-life balance. Mom-life balance. Inner balance.

But here’s the truth: balance is a lie — and it’s keeping you stuck in survival mode.

In this episode of The Inner Golden Hour, I’m breaking down exactly why chasing balance is NOT the answer (and never was), how it’s tied to subconscious programming rooted in performance and perfectionism, and what to focus on instead if you want actual peace, presence, and power.

As a manifestation coach for high-achieving moms, I see it constantly: ✨ Smart, capable women trying to “balance” a life that’s already out of alignment. ✨ Overfunctioning disguised as success. ✨ Guilt driving every decision. ✨ Nervous systems stuck in hypervigilance — but labeled as “handling it.”

Balance is just burnout in lipstick.

In this episode, we talk about:

🔥 Why work-life balance is a survival mechanism, not a success strategy

🧠 The subconscious beliefs that make ambitious women addicted to performing

🧘🏽‍♀️ How your nervous system is secretly dictating your time, energy, and priorities

💥 What to focus on instead of “balancing” (spoiler: it starts with your identity)

🚫 Why I don’t coach for balance — and what I help my clients embody instead

Whether you're in corporate, building a business, raising babies — or doing all three — you cannot afford to keep chasing a version of balance that was never built for you.
