Episode Details

We explore the sting of comparing lives, the grief of roads not taken, and the power that returns when we actively choose the life we have. Acceptance becomes the doorway to redefine success, process envy, and pursue bold goals on our terms.

• owning the life you chose as a daily practice
• grief, envy and disappointment for the path not taken
• conscious tradeoffs between career ambition and family presence
• processing emotions to unlock agency and energy
• redefining success to fit values and capacity
• moving from passive acceptance to active commitment
• choosing goals on your terms without straddling two worlds

The Balance & Beyond Podcast Hosted by Jo Stone, founder of The Balance Institute

For women who are already succeeding, but beginning to wonder if they're willing to keep losing themselves in the process.

We know high achievers, because we are one. This podcast draws on Jo's 20 years in global leadership and thousands of hours coaching executives and ambitious women: the patterns she sees, how to untangle them, and what it actually takes to keep your success without paying for it with yourself.

If something landed today, there's more where that came from.

And if you know a woman this would resonate with, send it her way.
