E7: Finding Balance with Compassion and Discipline with Annelies, F45 Gym Owner in Brussels, Belgium

I brought Annelies on the podcast to talk about finding balance in your life. It can be difficult to balance several things happening at once. Personal life, kids, work, school, hobbies, relationships… It's a lot! Annalies knows this feeling well. Her active and busy lifestyle finally caught up to her. Life was crazy, and she started to feel burned out. I’m sure some of you have felt this way before, too. I hope this episode shows you that you aren’t alone in your struggles and gives you some ideas on how to find balance in your life. Follow Annelies on Instagram.

E5: How to Cope with Postpartum Anxiety

Postpartum, or your fourth trimester, is a tricky thing to deal with. Your hormones are all over the place, and it can come with other issues, like depression or anxiety.  I have a two-year-old and am expecting another baby in a few short weeks. I want to share my postpartum experience with my first child and how I’m preparing for postpartum with my second.  I’d like to mention that everyone’s experience with postpartum is different. If your experience is different from mine, that’s okay! Do what’s best for you, but I hope you have some takeaways from my journey. Give yourself grace, and know you won’t feel this way forever. You’ve just gone through a huge life change, and you need time to adjust. You just gave birth to a little human for crying out loud! Your body needs time to feel like itself again. You got this, mama ❤   Follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, and Deezer. More From Laila Follow me on Instagram.  Sign up for my monthly newsletter.

E4: How I Managed my ADHD without Medication

I’m very proud to talk to you about my ADHD today. Through trial and error, I learned how to manage my ADHD without medication. I was on medication for a short while in college, but it didn’t work for me, and I know it doesn’t work for others, either. So I wanted to share how I manage ADHD without meds. Ten years after stopping medication, I feel great, and my body and brain are working properly. Although ADHD is still part of my personality, I don’t want that to change. It’s who I am, and I’m proud of that! If you have ADHD, know you have options besides medication. Follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, and Deezer.
