Life has a way of moving at full speed, doesn’t it? There are times when it feels like I’m juggling a million things at once—work, family, self-care—and yet, I’ve learned over the years that finding balance in these busy seasons is not only possible but necessary. I’ll never forget the year I was launching a new project, while also managing family responsibilities. I was overwhelmed, exhausted, and constantly running on empty, but that’s when I realized I had to take control of my time and energy. I had to find balance.

Balance isn’t about doing everything perfectly—it’s about giving yourself grace and learning to manage your energy wisely. In busy seasons, I’ve found that it’s essential to prioritize what matters most and let go of what doesn’t serve me. One thing that has helped me tremendously is setting clear boundaries. I’ve learned to say “no” to things that don’t align with my goals, and I’ve stopped feeling guilty about it.

One strategy that works for me is mapping out my weeks ahead of time. I break down my time between work, family, and personal self-care, making sure each gets the attention it needs. I’ve also become comfortable asking for help when I need it. Delegating isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a sign of wisdom.

Maintaining balance also requires checking in with myself regularly. I’ve had to learn to listen to my body and mind when they tell me to slow down. Sometimes, taking a break, whether it’s for an afternoon or a weekend, can make all the difference in keeping myself grounded. And most importantly, I’ve learned that balance is fluid—it changes with each season of life.

Through Her She Squad, I mentor women on how to find this balance in their own lives, whether they’re entrepreneurs, moms, or professionals. Life’s busy seasons don’t have to feel overwhelming when you have the right tools and mindset to stay grounded.
