    Coming Back to Yourself When You Feel Completely Scattered and Lost | Naila

    You are not falling apart. You are just in the messy middle. In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with her best friend Naila, content creator and host of the Untempered podcast, for one of the most honest and unfiltered conversations the show has ever had. This is not an expert interview. It is two women sitting in the messy middle together, naming something the self-development world rarely admits -- that sometimes you feel mentally scattered, lost and disconnected from yourself, and that is not a failure. It is a season. If you have ever caught yourself thinking: "I feel so mentally scattered and I don't know why" "I keep scrolling to switch off but I end up feeling worse" "I have been so busy but I don't feel like I am actually living my life" "I don't feel grounded enough to even think about what I want next" "I know something is off but I cannot put my finger on what it is" Then this episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Naila cover: - Why scrolling to switch off is making your mental scatter worse, not better - The difference between being busy and running away from yourself - How social media conditions you into losing your identity without realising it - Why feeling mentally scattered is not a problem to fix but a signal to listen to - How to reconnect with yourself when you have no mental space left - The difference between self-awareness and actually changing your behaviour - What it means to stop producing your life and start living it - How to create space in your day when everything feels full and overwhelming - Why there is no deadline for getting to know yourself or building your life - The voice note exercise that shifts how you talk to yourself when you are struggling You do not have to have it all figured out to start coming back to yourself. But you can start exactly where you are.

    Start HERE If Your Life Looks 'Right' But Something Feels Missing | Saina Baibee

    What if your life looks good from the outside but still doesn't feel fully yours? This episode is for anyone who has achieved everything they were supposed to achieve and found themselves quietly asking: why do I still feel like something is missing? Erika sits down with Saina Babaee, VP at Siemens, founder of her own fashion label, and mother of twins. Someone who followed the prescribed path with excellence and then had to find herself inside it. This is not a story about burning everything down. It is about what it actually looks like to stop living for everyone else and start building a life that is authentically yours. If you have ever caught yourself thinking: "I'm successful but I feel empty and I don't know why." "I want to start my passion but I don't know where to begin." "I have a good life. So why does something still feel off?" "I keep waiting for the right time to build something on the side." "I'm scared that wanting more makes me ungrateful for what I have." Then this is the episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Saina cover: *Why feeling empty despite your success is not a failing but a signal worth listening to *How to identify what you have been carrying since childhood that was never yours to carry *How to break long-held patterns without dismantling your whole life *Why you do not need to quit your job to start building your passion, and how having a 9-5 can actually make starting easier *How to build something on the side while working full time using a structure that fits around your life *What becoming a mother did to Saina's ambition and why it made her more driven, not less *How to lead with heart in corporate without losing results *How to navigate friendship grief and the loneliness of outgrowing people who no longer fit who you are becoming *How to reconnect with the creative, feminine side of yourself that high performance has pushed aside The version of you that has been waiting is not a different person. She is simply the one who finally has permission to exist. SPONSORS: 💪 Superpower -Take control of your health with Superpower.

    Being the "Independent Woman" Is Costing You THIS | Ghizlan Guenez

    She has built the life. The career. The reputation for having it together. And somewhere along the way, doing it all herself stopped being a choice and became the only way she knew how to operate. This episode is not about learning to be less independent. It is about what that independence has quietly been costing her and the one shift that changes everything about what she is able to receive. Ghizlan Guenez, founder of F.Force, joins Erika for a second conversation that goes somewhere their first episode did not. If you have ever caught yourself thinking: "It is just easier if I do it myself" "I want more but something keeps stopping me" "I know I want to be taken care of sometimes but admitting that feels wrong" "I have been so focused on achieving that I do not recognise myself anymore" "I feel like there is a block but I cannot work out if it is real or something I created" Then this episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Ghizlan cover: - Why the most independent, hardworking women are actually the ones who most want to be taken care of and why that is not a contradiction - The real reason asking for help feels like jumping off a cliff and what is actually underneath it - What your independence might be quietly costing you in love, abundance, and receiving - Whether going through big life changes is about finding yourself again or removing the parts that are no longer you and why that distinction changes everything - How to come home to who you already are versus discovering a version of yourself you have never met yet - How your relationship with certainty and control changes after hard seasons - The parts of yourself you leave behind when you are always in doing mode and how to find your way back - Decision sequencing: how to move forward when you do not have the full picture yet - Why most of the blocks you think you have do not actually exist and what you are really doing when you create them - The one question that reframes every decision you will ever make about your future - Why absolute advice does not work and how to take what is right for you and leave the rest - Movement creates clarity: how to start trusting yourself to move in a direction even when you cannot see the full path The woman who does it all is allowed to want more. And this conversation is her permission slip. SPONSORS: ⚪ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HUEL ⁠- Limited Time Offer – Make healthy eating simple.

    Mo Gawdat: The 30 Minute Saturday Practice That COMPLETELY Empties Your Mind

    If your brain won't stop, if you lie awake at night, spiral through the same thoughts, and feel like you can never fully switch off, this is going to change the way you think about that completely. Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google X and one of the most compelling minds on human happiness, doesn't just talk about training the brain. He's been doing it for decades. In this 11-minute clip he shares the three unconventional techniques he's developed to become the architect of his own mind, including the 30-minute Saturday practice that drains every thought until his brain has literally nothing left to say. This isn't meditation as you know it. There's no breathing, no mantras, no trying to clear your mind. You do the opposite, you listen to every single thought until there are no more left. And what's on the other side of that, Mo says, is the closest thing to paradise he's ever felt. If you've tried meditation and it hasn't worked, start here. 🎙️ From The Balance Theory Podcast - Full episode with Mo Gawdat available now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzLFPwVep00&list=PLfGbYDi4CkLa9s6XV2Rn2HbDi_khC9HOT SPONSORS: 💵 CASH APP: Download Cash App Today #CashAppPod #CashAppPartner Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

    Not Everyone Is Supposed to Like You (Here's the Rule That Explains It)

    If you ever find yourself holding back in conversations, softening your opinions, or leaving an interaction feeling like you didn't quite show up as yourself, this is for you. Most people don't realise they're doing it. But the desire to be liked is quietly running the show in almost every conversation you have. It's shaping what you say, how you say it, and how much of yourself you actually let people see. In this 5-minute clip, communication expert Shereen Mitwali introduces the rule of thirds: the framework that will immediately change the way you show up. Once you understand it, the anxiety of not being liked loses its grip. You stop shrinking. You stop performing. And you start communicating from a place of confidence instead of approval-seeking. This is the shift that makes you a better communicator without changing a single thing about who you are. 🎙️ From The Balance Theory Podcast - Full episode with Shereen Mitwali available now: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2PPygsJqlqvMH7Io6iYbDH?si=698cbb1619004744 WHO AM I?

    MANIFESTATION EXPERT: The 20 Second Exercise That Changes Your Reality

    If you've tried vision boards, affirmations, and positive thinking and nothing has changed, this clip is why. Regan Hillyer, one of the world's leading manifestation experts, breaks down the real reason your reality isn't shifting: you're unconsciously copy pasting your past into your future and calling it life. In this insight clip (from our full podcast with Regan), she explains why wishful thinking alone will never work, what's actually happening at a quantum level when you try to manifest, and the simple 20-second practice (SNEAK PEEK: manifestation alarms) that conditions your energy to match the reality you want before it shows up. This isn't spiritual bypassing. This is the practical mechanics of how to actually change your life. 🎙️ From The Balance Theory Podcast: Full episode with Regan Hillyer available now - watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP8O0ocW80M&list=PLfGbYDi4CkLa9s6XV2Rn2HbDi_khC9HOT&index=9 WHO AM I?

    #1 HYPNOTHERAPIST: Reclaim the Confidence You Were Born With in 9 Minutes

    You weren't born with low self-esteem, you were actually born really confident. You learned low self-esteem. And the confidence you've been waiting to feel? You were born with that too - life just made you forget it. In this clip, therapist and bestselling author Marisa Peer breaks down exactly where low self-esteem comes from, why it isn't who you are, and why chasing other people's approval is the thing keeping you most stuck. She explains how other people's fears, stories, and limitations quietly become ours without us even realising it and what it actually looks like to reclaim your self-belief on a daily basis. If you've ever felt like confidence is something other people have and you don't, or you've found yourself twisting into someone you're not just to be chosen, this is the 10-minute conversation that will change the way you see that. 🎙️ From The Balance Theory Podcast — Full episode with Marisa Peer available now here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O05Wr7PG9-U&list=PLfGbYDi4CkLa9s6XV2Rn2HbDi_khC9HOT&index=13 SPONSORS: 💧⁠AQUATRU -⁠ Use the code 'ERIKA' at https://aquatru.com for a 20% off WHO AM I?

    Aimee Smale Was Shy, Had No Plan and Built a Million Dollar Brand. The Reason Will Surprise You.

    You do not need to be the obvious person to build something real. In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Aimee Smale, founder of Odd Muse and 29 year old millionaire, to unpack the story nobody tells about building something from nothing. Not the strategy, not the business plan, not the perfect moment. The quiet, unassuming journey of someone who was never supposed to do this and did it anyway. If you've ever caught yourself thinking: "I don't think I'm the right type of person for this" "I don't have a clear path or a blueprint to follow" "I've been waiting to feel ready but that moment never comes" "I look at successful people and assume they had something I don't" "I have an idea but I don't know where to start" Then this episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Aimee cover: - Why being shy and timid did not stop her and why it does not have to stop you either - The mindset to go all in on yourself even if you cannot quit your job tomorrow - How to reframe sacrifice so it stops feeling like something you are losing - The version of yourself you have to let go of to build something new - What to do when you have everything you worked for and still do not feel happy - How she handled negativity online and why the people leaving comments do not actually exist in her world - Why she stopped sharing the things she actually cared about and what changed - The moment she nearly walked away from everything she built - What she would say to day one Aimee knowing everything she knows now - How to know when something needs to change even if you are not ready to admit it You do not need the path, the blueprint or the confidence. You just need to start.
