Are you living a life of joy and fulfilment, or are you just existing? It might not even cross your mind to question it anymore, because it all feels normal. 🛌 You wake up, check your emails, get ready, help the family get ready, head to work, give it your all, come home, tackle the chores, cook, eat, help your husband and children with whatever they need, put the kids to bed, catch up on emails and unfinished work, then collapse into bed. 🛌 Does this sound familiar? Let’s add the feelings that often come with it: 😔 You feel bad about going to work and not spending more time with your children. 😔 You feel bad about leaving your children in nursery or after-school clubs until late. 😔 You feel bad about leaving the office earlier than your colleagues. 😔 You feel bad that you are not doing your job well enough. 😔 You feel bad that you are exhausted and neglecting yourself. 😔 You feel bad that you don’t have the energy to meet your friends. 😔 You feel bad that you don’t see your parents enough. 😔 You feel bad... Can you stop for a moment? Just pause ⏸️ This is not what life is supposed to feel like. Something needs to change because life is happening right now. Not later when the kids are older, not later when your career feels more manageable, not later when everything magically falls into place. ✨ The present moment is the only one that is real, and it is where joy and fulfilment belong ✨ If this resonates with you, I can help. Together, we can unpack your life, identify what truly matters, create balance and make space for joy and fulfilment. You deserve to live fully.

How Busy Women Can Achieve Their Life and Health Goals. As women, especially those juggling the demands of work, family, and everything in between, it’s easy to let your own health and personal aspirations fall to the bottom of the priority list. But the truth is, prioritising your goals isn’t selfish - it’s essential. Goal setting is a tool that can help you regain control, whether your focus is on improving your health, boosting your confidence, or finding more balance in your life. 5 Steps to Achieve Your Goals Without Overwhelm. 1️⃣ Start with Your Why. Ask yourself: why is this goal important to me? • Health example: To have more energy to keep up with my children or grandchildren. • Life example: To feel empowered and confident in every aspect of life. A clear “why” will keep you motivated, especially when life gets hectic. 2️⃣ Make Goals Specific and Actionable. Vague goals often lead to frustration. Instead of saying, “I want to be healthier,” try: • “I’ll drink two litres of water daily for the next two weeks.” • “I’ll walk for 20 minutes, 4 days a week.” 3️⃣ Align Goals with Your Lifestyle. Your goals should feel like a part of your life, not an extra burden. • Batch-cook meals at weekends to save time during the week. • Use a family calendar to carve out regular “me-time.” 4️⃣ Celebrate Small Wins. It’s not just about reaching the finish line. Every step forward is a victory. Reward yourself when you hit milestones - whether that’s a self-care day or treating yourself to something that makes you feel amazing. 5️⃣ Find Accountability. Accountability is key. Whether it’s a friend, a coach, or a group, having someone to share progress with and lean on for support can make all the difference. The Takeaway Your goals - big or small - are achievable when you approach them with intention. Start small, stay consistent, and don’t be afraid to celebrate progress along the way. 💬 What’s one goal you’re working on right now? I’d love to hear about it!

Sounds crazy. But here’s the secret… It’s 100x simpler than you think. Here’s the dead simple 4-step midlife crisis framework I use 100% of the time: Step 1: Reflect on past achievements: Recognizing your achievements boosts your self-confidence and reminds you of your capabilities.

Connecting with your passions can provide clarity and direction for your future endeavors. Step 3: Set clear goals and priorities: Clearly define your goals and objectives, both short-term and long-term. Determine what you want to achieve in your career, relationships, health, and personal development. Step 4: Seek support and guidance together: Surround yourself with a supportive network of friends, family, mentors, and peers who encourage and uplift you. 💫Together, let's embark on a journey of Midlife change—a journey that celebrates our resilience, courage, and capacity for transformation and turn our midlife crises into opportunities for growth, fulfillment, and empowerment.

When was the last time you took a holistic view of your choices? It's easy to prioritise daily career demands over our health, relationships, and personal well-being. As we chase deadlines and strive for professional achievements, we often forget that our lives encompass much more than our jobs. Maintaining a balance between work and personal life is crucial for happiness and fulfillment. Ignoring this balance can lead to burnout, strained relationships, and a negative impact on our mental and physical health. Remember, your career is just one part of your life, and it should complement, not overshadow, your joys and aspirations. How do you find a balance between your professional and personal life? Your experiences and insights are valuable and integral to this conversation and could be invaluable to others struggling to find a balance. #CareerAdvancement #CareerGrowth #CareerSuccess #LeadershipDevelopment #ProfessionalWomen #WomenInLeadership #WomenWhoThrive #WomenInBalance #WomenOnTop #WomenInTech #WomenInPower #WomenWhoLead #WomenInMedicine #WomenInFinance #WomenInWork #EarlyRetirement #WomenSupportingWomen #WomenInWellness #WomenNetwork #WomenOfImpact #HealthyHabits #HealthEducation #KindnessMatters #SelfCare #YouMatter #LoveWhatYouDo #WellnessJourney #EnergyBoost #WellnessTips

Ah, the eternal juggle of career, family, self-care, and, somewhere in there, trying not to neglect personal fulfillment. Now that it’s after Mother's Day (UK) and International Women's Day, it's time to talk about YOU again. Yes, you, the one trying to do it all without spontaneously combusting. I recently ran a poll here on LinkedIn, and surprise, surprise—50% of you admitted to struggling with staying consistent in balancing your career and personal life. It's like trying to keep your socks paired up after laundry day—somehow, there's always one missing. Ugh! Here's my confession: I'm right there with you. I pour everything into work, only to come home and switch gears to being a parent, partner, and reluctant amateur chef. By the end of the day, my cup doesn't just feel empty; it's like I never had a cup to begin with. And yet, we wake up and do it all over again. But why? Because deep down, we fear not reaching that elusive idea of success we haven't quite defined yet. But, if we burn out, we're no good to our careers, kids, partners, or—most importantly—ourselves. So, how do you manage it? How do you refill your cup when it feels like you're pouring from an empty one? I'm all ears and ready for a laugh, a cry, or that magical piece of advice that could save us from becoming walking zombies of productivity. Give me your best tips, your epic fails, and your moments of clarity. Because success isn't a one-size-fits-all, especially when you're trying to fit it between soccer practice and quarterly reports. And if you're navigating this wonderfully chaotic journey of trying to have it all, visit @successhasnodeadline.com. Find humor in the chaos and wisdom in the collective experiences. Here's to not just surviving but thriving—cup overflowing and all. 🥂 #SuccessHasNoDeadline #LifeBalance #RefillYourCup #CareerVsPersonalLife

How can we manage our inner productive force without driving off a cliff? Here’s a few questions to consider. 1. Is your task list created out of expectation or alignment? Having kids changes our values. While so many of us (me included) wanted to show the world that we are the same as we were before having children, the truth is motherhood changes us. It’s not that we are doing less (or more), but that we are doing it differently. Is there anything on your list that you are doing because you “should” or that serves an old version of you and not the current you? 2. Is this mindset working for you or against you? A client and I explored this topic in a recent session, discussing how being addicted to productivity impacted her career, her life, her identity, her motherhood and health. We looked at different angles and lenses to determine that, for the most part, it was positively impacting her life. Only one area of her life was not thriving under this mindset, so we focused on how she could improve it. It doesn’t have to be blanket approach or a sign that you need to pump the breaks in all areas of your life. 3. Are you “doing” to prevent feeling? A client recently had a change in her family situation about a year ago and realized that all of her activities – trips, plans, social engagements, work – were just ways to avoid dealing with her feelings and the impact of this change. Another client, in talking about the finality of the size of her family, discussed whether getting rid of baby clothes was the best way to process the feelings, or whether sitting in stillness would serve her (or both). Exploring your relationship to productivity is a worthwhile exercise, and ensures you don’t burn out. Want to talk more about it? I offer a free 30-minute session. #returningtoworkafterkids #corporatemomlife #corporatemomma #corporatewomen #hardworkingmom #lifecoachformotms #matleave #momswhowork #wfhmom #workingmomma #workingmommies #workingmommylife #workingmothers #coachingformoms #careercoach #maternityleave #plancreatively #transformation #energy #lessstress #backtowork #coach #newborn #newmom #rtw #workmomlifebalance

In today's fast-paced world, the idea of "Doing Nothing Intentionally" is gaining traction, especially for those on the brink of burnout. While taking a break and doing nothing might offer temporary relief, it's not a sustainable solution for long-term well-being. Instead, consider "doing something that reduces your stress"— engaging in activities that bring you joy, calm your mind, and allow you to reclaim time for yourself. This approach is not only more practical but also sustainable, helping you maintain balance and resilience in the face of life's demands. Prioritize what nurtures you, and your well-being will follow. What is your View?

💟 Radical Self-Care 💟 As I prepare for the holiday break, I’m reminded of how essential rest is, not just for productivity, but for clarity, creativity, and our overall well-being. This year, I’ve been asking myself: What does rest look like for me? As a business owner and coach, it’s not always easy to carve out time for rest, but I’ve learned that setting boundaries and honouring my needs makes me a better human. As I get older, I’m noticing that my body and mind need more rest than they did in my 20s and 30s. In a world that often celebrates hustle and overwork, I’m reminded that we’re human beings, not human doings. We aren’t designed to be in constant motion - pushing, producing, achieving without pause. It’s about creating space to thrive, not just to do more. Let’s take a leaf (!) out of natures book. For many of the women I work with, rest feels like a radical act of self-care, something they rarely prioritise without guilt. Through working together, we focus on building a resilient mindset, helping them reframe rest as essential, not indulgent. One client shared how she used to feel guilty about taking short breaks, worried it would make her appear less committed at work. After shifting her mindset, she started blocking time for intentional rest, like a peaceful afternoon walk, taking a proper lunch break or a quick nap. 💡 The result? She felt more energised, focused, and mentally clear—able to excel in her role AND enjoy her personal life. Rest isn’t just about stopping; it’s about creating the space to thrive in all areas of your life. What’s your favourite way to rest—naps, walks, or something else? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I’m Sadia 🌟 I’m a leadership and career coach, dedicated to helping women build the mindset and skillset to become career-confident and thrive at work. If you’re ready to overcome the mindset gremlins and create a fulfilling career, please DM me. Let’s work together to make it happen! 💬
