Episode #44 Balancing a Full-Time Career, Fitness and Mom-Life, with Alli Elmunzer.

The Finding Your Strength Podcast

Welcome to this week’s Finding Your Strength Podcast! My special guest today is Alli Elmunzer who is an entrepreneur, lawyer, photographer, wife and mom. She gives us a perspective on balancing all the responsibilities involved in being a working mom and the very real busyness that has often got you tired AF! The word ‘busy’ has gotten a bad rep due to it being overused and frankly, abused, but there is just no other way to describe what we women go through in order to keep all the plates of our home and work life spinning. So when we say ‘busy’ we mean overwhelmed! Alli talks about her multifaceted career, how she organically started coaching people on business strategies and how her law degree is opening up more opportunities in the work she’s doing now. She shares about her health and fitness routine, her two pregnancies and when she realized that she may be suffering from postpartum anxiety. We also talk about the negative role that a scale can play in your everyday life, whom intermittent fasting may be beneficial for and how to deal with kids who are picky eaters. Be sure to join us for all this goodness!
