Is your mind constantly racing with a million to-do’s, but you still feel like you're getting nowhere?  Do you struggle to put your phone down and truly unplug - without guilt? Are you growing your business... or just running yourself into the ground trying? If you nodded “yes” to any of these, The Balanced Businesswoman podcast was made just for you. This is your permission slip to ditch the hustle culture and build a business that aligns with your purpose, supports your peace, and creates real impact - without burning out. It’s time to redefine success on your terms, with scalable support, space to breathe, and more time for yourself and the people you love. You don’t have to choose between fulfillment and freedom … you get to have both. Hi, I’m Lesa Frye - wife, mom, grandma, and business owner for over 30 years. I built a successful real estate business initially by doing what I thought was required: being available around the clock, constantly pushing, and putting myself last. From the outside, everything looked great. But inside? I was exhausted, overwhelmed, and quietly losing connection with myself and the life I truly wanted. So, I made a change. I rebuilt my business (and my life) around peace, purpose, and aligned priorities. I learned how to lead with intention, scale without sacrificing myself, and finally create space for the people and moments that matter most. Now, I help other high-achieving women do the same. If you’re ready to step off the burnout path and build a business that supports your energy, values, and vision for a joyful life, you’re in the right place. So take a deep breath, close those 12 browser tabs, and drop the hustle. It’s time to become The Balanced Businesswoman.
