Do you ever feel like your business demands everything you have—at the expense of your health? I know I’ve felt that way, and in this episode, I sit down with health coach Michelle Leotta to talk about what it really takes to find balance when your work feels all-consuming.
Michelle shares her journey from burnout to sustainability, opening up about the challenges of being a health coach while struggling with her own health and well-being. We talk about the pressure to “walk the walk” in your industry, why perfection isn’t the goal, and how prioritizing yourself can actually make you a better business owner.
Through our conversation, Michelle offers practical strategies for integrating self-care into a busy schedule—and I share some of my own experiences navigating this delicate balance, too.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
✨ How your personal health directly impacts your business success (02:30)
✨ The impact of imposter syndrome on your health (08:22)
✨ Small, practical habits that boost energy and productivity (13:01)
✨ The connection between movement, nutrition, and business clarity (19:13)
✨ Why rest isn’t just a luxury—it’s a strategic advantage (24:00)
✨ The power of authenticity in coaching and entrepreneurship (28:10)
If you’ve ever struggled to take care of yourself while growing your business, you’re not alone. Join me for this honest conversation about what it really means to value your health and why taking care of yourself isn’t just good for you—it’s good for your business, too.
