If you’re like most people, having stress in your life is inevitable. If you’re dealing with stress right now, know that you’re not alone, and with everything that we have been through as a society these past couple years, how can we be surprised if we are experiencing stress? As a listener of The Balanced Life, you know that Robin has been working very intentionally over the past year to not only reduce stress in her own life, but also to figure out how to effectively manage it. In today’s episode, we are going to dive into a practical and helpful framework that Robin uses called “The 3 D’s” – which is Do, Delegate and Delete. With this framework, the goal is to simplify our routines in order to help reduce unnecessary stress in our lives, and by doing this, it can really reduce our overall load, day-to-day. We hope this episode will encourage you to take some time to pause and reflect, and to think about the things that you really want to do and be spending your time on, and the framework Robin shares will help you do just that. Show highlights: what you can look forward to in this episode! Some stress is actually shown to be good for you, but being in a constant state of chronic stress is a recipe for disaster and will negatively impact your health Robin reveals the “3 D’s” framework and how she, her team, and friends use it to simplify more and stress less Some examples of what’s on Robin’s “Do” list and why she is prioritizing these things in this season of her life How she thinks of delegation, and the first things that comes to mind when she’s looking to take things off of her plate Asking for help is not only beneficial to you, but also to the people that you are asking for help You may be able to delete things from your life that may have once been important in a different season, because little things deleted now can equal big results and more time back in your day Links in this episode: Try Lindywell free for 14 days!

The truth is that habits are more than just what we do. They’re also what we think, how we respond to certain situations, how we solve the problems that we face and how we care, or don’t care, for ourselves. In this episode, we talk all about the habits that we want to create or may want to get rid of, and all that is entailed in this process. To help explain what habits really are, today Robin is joined by her friend and fellow entrepreneur and business owner Sandra Chuma, a habits coach who helps women know their worth, create lives that they love and really live life to the fullest, which is what we want for you here at The Balanced Life and what we do with our community, app, and the content we create for you. There are so many great strategies, tips and mindset shifts in this conversation with Sandra, and it’s definitely an episode that you may have to listen to a few times (with pen and paper in hand to take notes!) to really grasp all the wisdom that she shares. Show highlights: what you can look forward to in this episode! Sandra had a big “A HA” moment that really taught her the importance of habits in our life and led to her getting certified as a habits coach. Habits can come from repetition over a long period of time, and they can be also be formed and anchored instantly. Motivation and willpower is great for getting you started on a new habit, but it’s not dependable to do this long-term. Consistently taking small steps is where we really make progress with our habits. When you feel successful, you’re more likely to repeat the behavior. Creating your habits is as easy as the “ABC” formula that Sandra shares, but don’t forget to always celebrate along the way. People give meaning to tracking their habits, but tracking itself is just feedback and shouldn’t be used to feel bad about what you did or didn’t do. A major lesson Sandra got from a mentor is that it’s ok to be a work in progress and be a work of art at the same time. Robin LOVES this statement and it sums how we support you at The Balanced Life – embrace YOU! Our brains love predictability and will often self-sabotage us, but Sandra has an exercise she uses to help raise your awareness and overcome this. The “3 E’s” where our beliefs come from, and 4 questions you can ask right now to get past the beliefs that aren’t serving you. Robin also shares a limiting belief that held her back in the past, and how she learned that it just wasn’t true. Meditation isn’t for everyone. Don’t feel bad if it isn’t working for you, and there are lots of other effective tools to help you become more aware of your thoughts and habits.

If you’ve been following along on Instagram or Facebook, or are a member of The Balanced Life Sisterhood, you’ve heard Robin talking about what it means to create a healthy home environment. Often when we think of health and well-being, we think about the foods we’re eating or how much we’re exercising, but how often do we think about our environments and how they are supporting us? Today’s episode is with Becky, aka “Clean Mama”, and she is the perfect person to be talking about this topic. Becky is a long-time member of The Balanced Life Sisterhood and she is an expert on what it takes to have a clean and healthy home. Becky has created systems and processes that take the stress and overwhelm out of housekeeping, and her work has changed the lives of so many people! We hope you come away from this episode feeling encouraged and empowered to create a healthier home and to keep it with a bit more order, without feeling overwhelmed. Be sure to follow Clean Mama on Instagram, @cleanmama, and if this episode was helpful to you, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts. If you think someone else would enjoy it and it could help them improve their environment and health, please share it with them!

Safety in the home with the products Becky uses has always been important, especially since a scary incident years ago with her oldest child and a product she came into contact with If you feel you’re too busy to clean, you’ll never get a handle on it. Becky shares her 4-part routine, starting with simple daily tasks that will actually give you back your time. Studies show that more clutter leads to more stress, but just cleaning off a table or removing items from one small area can make a huge reduction in the amount of stress that you’re feeling. Showing versus just telling or teaching your kids what to do will work so much better, and remember to break it into small, manageable tasks when getting them involved! There are certain things you can do if you and your roommate(s) have different cleaning habits, but it’s important to set the ground rules before moving in together. Becky shares her thought process when developing her own DIY recipes for cleaning solutions that are quick and easy to make. There is one area of the house that is worse than the others for toxins, which is why she recommends starting there. Becky and Robin share a lot of the same philosophies on life, and she’s a big believer in grace over guilt when balancing life and maintaining a clean and healthy home.

Today we are diving into Part 2 of Robin’s conversation with Dr. Aviva Romm, and if you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, you are going to want to do that right now)! It is full of so much good information related to hormones through all stages of life and the hidden hormone epidemic that exists among women. In Part 2, Dr. Romm reveals the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy, simple ways to bring more balance to your hormones, a very practical and realistic way to improve brain fog, and tips for navigating your hormones on the journey to menopause. Dr. Romm also answers your questions on everything from sex drive, to birth control, to supplements to consider for healthy hormones, and so much more. If this two-part conversation with Dr. Romm was helpful for you, we’d love it if you could share it with your friends, family, and anyone that would benefit by listening. The more women we can empower with this knowledge, the better! Show highlights: what you can look forward to in this episode! Perimenopause isn’t being talked about enough, but there are botanicals and herbs that can help restore the adrenal stress response associated with it She gives her thoughts on going the synthetic hormones versus natural route, and what you can do to feel more empowered about your options There is hype surrounding the marketing of certain synthetic hormones, but don’t believe everything you see being promoted Our mind is powerful, so be careful how you think of menopause! Certain studies prove that our thoughts around the subject will impact the symptoms we experience. If you have brain fog, often hydration is the issue and drinking more water is where to start with alleviating it. Sex drive is way more complicated that being just about our hormones, so try to unpack what is really going on in your life and impacting it. The birth control pill depletes you, but there are things you can do and take to reduce how it affects you. If you write down your questions before visiting the doctor, bring an advocate with you and wait to put your gown on at the office, you will be in a much better position to advocate for your health once there.

Are you ready to talk about hormone health? This is the episode that Robin has literally been counting down the days to, with her special guest Dr. Aviva Romm! Today they dive deep into all things hormone health that we experience in our everyday life, as well as through the various stages and seasons we move through. Robin also asks Dr. Romm the questions that you submitted by social media and email to have answered, and the information she shared was so fascinating to hear. As you know, Robin has been on a journey this past year with her own hormonal health, sharing with you as much as possible along the way. Bringing Dr. Romm on the podcast today is a tremendous opportunity to get an expert perspective on these important topics, and hopefully it empowers you on your journey to advocate for your health and to feel your very best. You’re not going to want to miss Part 2 of this special conversation next time on the podcast. We’ll see you then! Show highlights: what you can look forward to in this episode! There is a hidden hormone epidemic that exists, with several levels to why it’s hidden and so often normalized in society. Romm made a big realization after starting college years ago, and she considered herself a “trojan horse” when she went back to Yale decades later to get her MD. Hormone health is a critical vital sign of our overall health in a variety of ways, every day and not just during certain times of the month. We’re getting better as moms at admitting when something is off, but historically women have just kept going and tried to push through burnout. We often forget about the non-physical symptoms of burnout, but there are subtle signs to watch for and to be aware of. The right types of foods, including carbohydrates, healthy fats and quality proteins, are absolutely critical for supporting our nervous system. Smart devices can be our worst enemy at bed time. Dr. Romm shares how to approach a sleep routine in the most optimal way.

The questions Robin answers today are the ones that she thinks will have the most impact, and hopefully help as many people as possible.

Have you ever wondered why meal plans never seem to stick — no matter how motivated you are in the beginning? If you’ve tried everything from keto to Whole30 to “clean eating,” and still feel stuck, you’re not alone. In this episode, I share the real reason why meal plans don’t work long-term: they focus only on food and ignore the most important piece — your identity and mindset. Lasting nutrition change isn’t about willpower or another set of recipes. It’s about shifting the way you see yourself and your relationship with food, and pairing that with simple, science-based nutrition foundations that actually support your body in midlife. You’ll learn: Why meal plans fail women over and over again How identity and mindset quietly drive your food choices (and keep you stuck) The “Be → Do → Have” framework that flips traditional nutrition models on their head Why combining mindset + metabolism-focused nutrition is the key to change that lasts If you’re ready to stop starting over every Monday and finally feel confident in your nutrition, this episode is for you. 👉 Want to go deeper?

In this deeply personal solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s really been going on in my body, brain, and energy over the past few years. I share the unfiltered truth about my experience with chronic exhaustion, the surprising results from advanced hormone and neurotransmitter testing, and why popular biohacking advice actually made things worse for me.

And it’s an invitation to approach your own health with more curiosity, more compassion, and way less comparison. Topics We Cover: The truth about “high dopamine brains” and what that means for women in midlife The connection between hormones, neurotransmitters, and stress Why rest isn’t optional for high-performing women—it’s essential Sneaky habits that deplete your dopamine (and what to do instead) Gentle, science-supported ways to rebuild energy and mental clarity Resources + Links: Listen to the episode about mold recovery here: https://lindywell.com/episode52/ Listen to the episode about steps I took to improve my hormonal balance here: https://lindywell.com/episode69/ Well to the Core – Grab the book for a realistic, grace-filled approach to wellness: https://go.shopmy.us/p-4200825 Get access to 400+ on-demand Pilates workouts, breathwork and more in the Lindywell app. Start your free trial here: https://lindywell.com/freetrial/ Follow us on Instagram for daily inspiration: @wearelindywell

I really enjoyed listening to this podcast. I am well beyond this stage of life now but still was very informative and gave me tips to tell my kids!

I have listened to allu and subscribed! I love them all, but so far Allie is my favorite interview. It's refreshing to hear from someone who is in the thick of making changes and what that looks like. So often the muddy middle is glossed over to highlight the fantastic end result. Can't wait for more!
