Welcome back to the EmpowerHer Business Accelerator Podcast! I'm your host, Phillipa Channer, and today we’re wrapping up our March series with a special reflection on work-life balance as a female CEO.
As entrepreneurs, we pour so much of ourselves into our businesses, often leaving little room for anything else. In this episode, I’m sharing the lessons I’ve learned, the challenges I’ve faced, and the strategies that have helped me maintain balance while growing my business and pursuing my MBA.
Episode Summary:
Maintaining work-life balance as a female CEO is no easy task. In this personal reflection, I dive into:
✅ The reality of balancing multiple roles – entrepreneur, student, wife, mother, and more.
✅ How prioritization changes with different seasons of life – knowing when to focus on business, family, or personal well-being.
✅ The power of delegation – how outsourcing and strategic partnerships can lighten the load.
✅ The importance of self-care as a non-negotiable – practical ways to avoid burnout.
✅ Why celebrating wins (big or small) is essential for sustainable success.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by trying to “do it all,” this episode is for you!
