One thing BalancingClaire does not waver on is nutrition, she believes it is the foundation of a successfully balanced life. Your energy you put off and your approach to the hard things is what will make or break your success,  focusing on what is hard and actually understanding why you're feeling certain "heaviness" might be all the answers needed to get out of the rut.

    Career Ending Injury? - episode 4

    We are getting into all the emotions with this story.  On this episode I get into every detail that lead up to and pertains to my season ending knee injury. I get vulnerable and emotional because it is still very hard to talk about for me. Even if you have never had a serious injury or have never been a competitive athlete, you will relate to this story in some way. The mindset you have to have to overcome difficult obstacles remains the same in all situations. This episode is longer because I didn't want to leave anything out and wanted to be as raw and as real as I could be with y'all. Grab your coffee and grab your tissue if you are a cryer like me because I just couldn't help myself (even when I said I wouldn't).
