Is the pursuit of “balance” actually burning you out?

In this raw and refreshingly honest episode, Chantelle and Michelle open up about the invisible load of motherhood, running a business, and the myth of having it all together. From hospital visits to snack box stress, they’re lifting the curtain on what life really looks like behind the scenes - and why redefining success might just save your sanity.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why chasing perfect balance is doing more harm than good - and what to do instead
  • How to make values-based decisions that protect your time, energy, and mental health
  • Practical ways to run your studio and still feel present at home (without burning out)

If you're in a season of stretching yourself thin, this episode is your permission slip to slow down, reset your expectations, and lead with intention.
