<h3>The idea of true balance in our lives can often feel allusive and at times impossible. What if there was a way to make it more of a reality in our personal and professional lives? I am speaking with Danielle Colley, integrative life coach, speaker, event facilitator and writer. For the past five years, she has been helping people who are feeling stuck and dissatisfied with their lives to reach their full potential. Hundreds of people have taken Danielle’s courses at Your Good Life that tackles confidence, self-worth and courage. Danielle also delivers leadership workshops for well-known brands that include Sony Pictures Television, F45, The Leadership Institute and Transport New South Wales.</h3><h3></h3><h3>Her latest book <em>The Chocolate Bar Life</em> made my ears prick up – the title was so unique. After being fired as a journalist at The Australian Women’s Weekly, the solo mum was propelled beyond stress and straight to burn out which many of us can relate to. Addicted to stress and self-soothing with whatever she could, Danielle realised at the heart of it was the ingrained conditioning that success proved you were a worthy human and should be attained at all costs.</h3><h3></h3><h3>But a chance comment about making life more like a Mars Bar changed how Danielle saw life forever. Deciding life should not feel like a constant uphill marathon, Danielle’s new mission centred around creating an ambitious life that still felt good to live. She lives by the sea one hour south of Sydney, with her husband, her two kids, and their dog, Rocky.</h3><p>This show includes views from Danielle on:</p><p>1. Share with is what led you to ‘burn out town’ as you describe it? And what was your redemptive path back to balance?</p><p>2. Is the idea of work/life balance too binary and can set us up to fail because in truth real life is always a raft of ups and downs in any given period?</p><p>3. Your book The Chocolate Bar Life (Hembury Books $29.95) is both powerful and humorous = and it guides readers through powerful learnings, showing that if we prioritise the delicious balance between work, rest and play life becomes far yummier. How did you make this book stand out as there are so many others that tell us about how to stress less and seize the day already?</p><p>4. Your non-negotiable fave daily habit?</p><p>Connect further:</p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielle-colley-4b344926/?originalSubdomain=au">(31) Danielle Colley | LinkedIn</a></p><p>https://daniellecolley.com.au</p><p><strong>POE listener offer:</strong> Zencastr is my podcast platform of choice.
