Balance Is A Feeling: Navigating Modern Motherhood with Passion & Purpose with Rebecca Olson
In this episode, Rebecca Olson shares how balance is not about perfect time management but about presence, clarity, and values. She explains how working moms can stop living in constant mental overload, avoid burnout, and create a version of success that allows for both ambition and family connection.
In this episode, they discuss:
- Why balance feels different for every woman
- How motherhood often triggers a deeper identity shift
- The role of vision and values in creating sustainable balance
- Why burnout is usually a slow build, not a sudden crash
- The importance of prioritizing presence at work and at home
- How guilt and resignation keep women stuck
- Why moms should not feel forced to choose between career and family
This conversation is a powerful reminder that balance is not something you achieve perfectly but something you feel when your life aligns with what matters most.
