What does it really take to become her, the woman who creates abundance, wealth, success and a life that once felt impossible? In this powerful episode of The Balance Theory, I sit down with Honia Kader to unpack the mindset, identity work and self-belief required to become the 1%, not just financially, but emotionally, energetically and internally. Honia shares how she went from feeling like success, wealth and “that kind of life” were for other people, to completely rewiring her identity and building a life of abundance. We talk about the hidden work behind becoming successful, why mindset is not “fluff,” how to create wealth without guilt, and what it really means to step into the version of yourself who can hold more. In this episode, we discuss how to become her, how to become the 1%, how to create abundance and wealth, and how to shift your mindset so success no longer feels out of reach. If you've ever felt like you were made for more but didn't know where to start, this conversation is for you. SPONSORS: ⁠

If you've ever felt like you're just going through the motions of life… this episode is for you. On the outside, everything might look good. You're doing what you're “supposed” to do. But internally, something feels off. Like you're not fully in your life. In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with psychologist Dr Louise Lambert to explore why so many of us feel disconnected from our own lives and what actually helps you feel like you're living again. This conversation goes beyond surface-level advice. It dives into what the science says about happiness, why simply “fixing problems” isn't enough, and how to shift from just functioning… to truly feeling your life. If you've been craving more presence, more meaning, or just a deeper connection to your everyday life, this will give you a completely new perspective. What We Cover: * Why you can feel “fine”… but still feel disconnected from your life * The concept of “languishing” and why so many people are stuck there * Why focusing on the past isn't the key to a better present * The 3 types of people: which one you are and what to do about it * What the science actually says about happiness (and what we get wrong) * Does more success, money, or discipline lead to happier lives? * A simple way to reconnect with meaning and purpose in your life * The difference between positive thinking and useful thinking * Practical ways to shift out of autopilot and feel more present 
 You don't need to overhaul your life to feel better, you need to change how you experience it. SPONSORS: ⁠

What if confidence isn't something you build… but something you express? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Shereen Mitwalli to unpack one of the biggest misconceptions around confidence: that it comes from what you say, when in reality… it comes from how you say it. If you've ever felt like you know what you want to say but hesitate, overthink, or struggle to articulate yourself clearly, this conversation will completely reframe how you approach communication. Because confidence isn't about saying more. 
It's about saying things in a way that actually lands. This episode explores the subtle shifts that can transform how people perceive you, whether that's being taken seriously at work, feeling more self-assured in conversations, or simply expressing who you truly are without second guessing yourself. What We Cover: * Why confidence is more about delivery than content * The 3 key principles to communicate clearly and effectively * How overthinking is quietly undermining your confidence * Why not everyone needs to like you (and why that's powerful) * The biggest communication mistakes people make without realising * How to speak in a way that makes people actually listen * Practical ways to show up more confidently at work and in life

What if the reason you still feel off… isn't because you're not trying hard enough, but because the advice you're following was never designed for your body? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Iman Hasan to unpack one of the most frustrating experiences so many women face: doing everything “right” when it comes to health - eating clean, trying fasting, investing in supplements and still not feeling better. This conversation challenges the idea that more discipline or stricter habits are the answer. Instead, it explores what's actually happening beneath the surface, from chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation to why your body might not be absorbing the nutrients you're giving it. If you've ever felt like your body isn't responding the way it “should”… this episode will help you understand why and what to focus on instead. What We Cover: * Why fasting doesn't work the same for every woman and when it can actually make things worse * The hidden impact of stress and being in a constant fight-or-flight state * Why your body might not be absorbing nutrients (even if you're eating well) * The truth about “healthy eating” and why food quality isn't what it used to be * Why supplements alone won't fix the root issue * The importance of cell health and what it actually means * How to approach your health in a way that works with your body, not against it * Simple, overlooked shifts that can make a real difference day-to-day You're not doing it wrong, but your body might be under more stress than you realise. And until your body feels safe, no amount of “healthy habits” will work the way you expect them to. SPONSORS:

What if the reason you haven't changed your life yet… isn't because you're not capable, but because you're not ready in the way you think? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with top 1% podcast host and founder Shivani Pau to unpack the reality behind wanting more, feeling stuck, and questioning whether it's time to leave your job. This isn't another conversation telling you to “just quit” or “follow your passion.”It's a grounded, honest look at what actually happens when you move too soon and what truly needs to shift before your life can change. If you've ever felt like: “I want more from my life… but I don't know what's stopping me” “I'm not fulfilled, but I don't feel ready to leave” “I'm scared I'll make the wrong decision” “Why hasn't anything changed yet, even though I want it to?” then this episode is for you!

Pull up a chair, pour up a glass, and let's discuss.Why do some men feel like one woman isn't enough?In this episode of The Cognac Room, Jay Christian and Petra break down what we're calling “The Balance Theory”—the idea that some men aren't necessarily chasing variety… they're trying to fill gaps they feel in a single relationship.Is it about ego, options, and temptation?Or is it about unmet needs, emotional incompatibility, and modern dating dynamics?We dive into: • Why some men juggle multiple women at the same time • The difference between cheating vs. compensating • How unmet emotional, physical, and lifestyle needs create “relationship gaps” • The role of attention, validation, and peace in male decision-making • Why one woman may meet some needs—but not all • How this connects to compatibility vs. chemistry • The truth about men who say, “She's good… but something's missing”This conversation isn't about justifying behavior—it's about understanding the psychology behind it so you can move smarter in dating and relationships.Because sometimes it's not about having options…It's about trying to create balance in places where there is none.If you've ever questioned why someone couldn't commit, or felt like you were competing with invisible expectations—this episode is for you.This Episode is sponsored by BetterHelp       Cognac Room listeners get 10% off of                your first month at https://www.betterhelp.com/cognacroom

 What if the reason so many ambitious women feel torn about motherhood isn't because they have to choose… but because no one has shown them how both can actually work? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with psychologist and friend (and her first guest ever on the show) Nancy Sokarno, to unpack the real, unfiltered experience of becoming a working mum - beyond the surface-level advice and societal expectations. This conversation explores the identity shift that comes with motherhood, the internal conflict high-achieving women often face, and the uncomfortable truths that aren't spoken about enough: from grief and resentment to guilt and pressure to “do it all.” But more importantly, it reframes the narrative. This isn't about choosing between ambition and family. It's about understanding what needs to evolve within you to hold both. Whether you're planning to become a mum, navigating early motherhood, or trying to build a life that includes both career and family, this episode will give you a deeper perspective on what that actually requires.

What if the reason you're not living your dream life yet isn't because you're not working hard enough… but because you're focusing on the wrong things? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with manifestation expert and entrepreneur Regan Hillyer to break down what actually creates results and why working harder is often the biggest misconception holding you back. This is not about wishful thinking or surface-level manifestation. It's about understanding your internal programming, shifting your emotional state, and learning how to align your actions with the life you actually want.If you've ever felt like: “I know I'm capable of more, but I don't know where to start” “I'm doing everything right… but nothing is changing” “I don't have enough time, money, or resources yet” this conversation will challenge that and give you a new way to approach creating your dream life.

What if the reason you feel constantly busy, overwhelmed, or pulled in every direction is because you're saying yes to the wrong things? In this episode of The Balance Theory, Erika sits down with Christine Assouad - author, serial entrepreneur, investor on Shark Tank Lebanon, and founder behind multiple ventures including Dunkin' Lebanon and Semsom. She has mentored thousands of women across the Middle East and beyond and recently released her book The Power to Say Yes, which explores how learning to say yes to yourself can transform your life and career. In this conversation, Christine shares what she has learned from mentoring thousands of women, why so many ambitious people struggle with guilt and overcommitment, and how to become intentional about where your time, energy, and attention go. This episode dives into the tension between being capable and feeling obliged, why energy management matters more than time management, and how to start designing a life aligned with what actually matters to you. What We Cover • Why so many people say yes to everyone except themselves 
• The hidden difference between being capable and feeling obligated
 • The Wheel of Life exercise to understand what truly matters
• Why many ambitious women feel burnt out despite doing everything “right”
 • The importance of energy management, not just time management 
• How saying yes to one opportunity can shape an entirely different life path
 • Why guilt often holds people back from pursuing what they want 
• The smallest “yes” you can start with today to reclaim control of your life This episode could be the one that powerfully changes your life. Make sure to share it with a friend if someone came to mind during the episode! CONNECT

This month marks four incredible years since the launch of The Big Balance Theory! What started as a way to capture the experiences and emotions of the COVID lockdown years through the voices of authentic, inspiring guests has become so much more. Over time, we've reflected on every episode — uncovering insights, learnings, and stories that remind us that Big Balance Theory isn't really a theory… it's a journey. Lockdown taught us the value of connection and conversation and, as the world shifts again, we find ourselves craving both more than ever. In this episode, I share: · The key learnings from four years of Big Balance Theory · Why my three words for this season are Serendipity, Enough, and Lists · The exciting launch of my new podcast: Knowing You with Sarah Cripps — a deeper dive into human connection, featuring guests from lost connections to lifelong friends I've never truly sat down with… until now.

BridgeBio has been an innovator in applying portfolio theory to its business model as a way to broaden access to capital. The company recently had a big win with its approval for Attruby, its treatment for the rare condition transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy. The approval is a boost for the company, which, like many biotechs, had to scale back on programs in the face of the downturn in capital markets in recent years. We spoke to Neil Kumar, co-founder and CEO of BridgeBio, about the approval of Attruby, the company's late-stage pipeline, and what he's learned about its business model in the process.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_theory https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=153122 I don't have the normal access to feelings. I fear getting flooded and disabled by empathy, so I usually stay behind a hard cynical exterior and I keep most people at arm's length. I only confide in a few people. This will sound weird, but I haven't felt a thing about the attacks on Israel. I think I'm still in shock and I am protecting myself by staying in analytic mode. Despite my lack of emotion, I make friends and I lose friends as I go through life. I hate losing friends. I admire those who can keep friends. Dennis Prager, for example, says he has never lost a friend. How do you do that? I guess you have to be solid. I'm constantly changing and as a result I'm constantly shedding friends. In 2009 and 2010, I went to kundalini yoga frequently. In 2009, I went 200 times. In 2010, I went just over 100 times. I wanted to get my money's worth from my annual $1,000 pass for unlimited yoga. Because I wouldn't take teacher training and go deeper into the 3HO (Happy, Healthy, Holy) cult, I couldn't advance most of my friendships at yoga. On the other hand, as a convert to Orthodox Judaism, I couldn't stay at kundalini yoga because enough rabbis declare it idolatry and I didn't want to rock the boat, so I dropped out. This is a typical story for me. I join something moderately, enjoy it, and then move on. In the process, I gain and lose friends. The less you have in common with your friends, the less of a friendship you have. When I converted to Judaism, the friends I grew up with generally experienced that as my rejecting them. When I became an Orthodox Jew, I let go of many non-Orthodox friendships. When I had an entire social circle around Dennis Prager, when I alienated Prager by my blogging, I lost all those friends. I have an online-only friend in Ricardo. For months, we so hated each other that it seemed like the only possible road back for us was the Dallas Cowboys. If we didn't have this team, we wouldn't talk. Suppose we didn't have the Cowboys. We would have been finished. Upon such trivial bases, friendships endure. https://odysee.com/@LukeFordLive, https://rumble.com/lukeford, https://dlive.tv/lukefordlivestreams Superchat: https://entropystream.live/app/lukefordlive Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/lukeford/ Soundcloud MP3s: https://soundcloud.com/luke-ford-666431593 Code of Conduct: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=125692 http://lukeford.net Email me: lukeisback@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter.com/lukeford, Best videos: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=143746 Support the show | https://www.streamlabs.com/lukeford, https://patreon.com/lukeford, https://PayPal.Me/lukeisback Facebook: http://facebook.com/lukecford Book an online Alexander Technique lesson with Luke: https://alexander90210.com Feel free to clip my videos.

I'm excited to be bringing you conversation with Erika De Pellegrin. Erika is a lawyer and a podcast host, she loves a good challenge – and her day-to-day is no exception. Her podcast “The Balance Theory” partly originated from her often wondering what were the tools that would help to navigate a busy schedule and live a rich and meaningful life in the process. And the traditional concept of work-life-balance just didn't make sense for us modern women. Work is a part of our lives, and our lives are so much more than just ‘not work'. Erika felt like nobody was speaking our language and decided to set that straight. She started The Balance Theory podcast as a platform to start the conversation around finding this sense of balance in the topics and areas that matter to the modern woman: mindset, female health, career, growth, and self awareness. So if you're looking for practical and personal tools as well as insights to help find your unique balance; tune into The Balance Theory podcast hosted by Erika. Erika is an amazing communicator and her story of getting a law degree, being a lawyer and eventually starting a podcast to fuel her passion will inspire you to evaluate the possibilities and take steps towards creating work that is deeply aligned with you, your strengths and what you're looking to create. She is also brilliant in having you rethink your own approach to balance even if you feel like you've heard and tried many tips and strategies about finding the right balance, Erika might have you rethink and tweak your approach to finding and establishing balance that truly fits you and the life you're creating. We're talking feelings of dissatisfaction, burn out, guilt and how you can find a way to achieve your goals without sacrificing other areas of your life. Her podcast has been a huge passion project where she explores the idea of life balance and you can find it here https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-balance-theory/id1515858773 connect with her on IG www.instagram.com/thebalancetheorypodcast Share this episode with someone you know who's looking to find better work life balance and let me know what was your #1 takeaway - DM me on IG www.instagram.com/careerintechnicolor

Welcome to the Part Time Pilot Audio Ground School Podcast! This podcast is going to be all about providing student pilots with ANOTHER way that they can consume the Private Pilot curriculum. The #1 reason student pilots never end up becoming a private pilot is NOT due to money. The real reason is actually deeper than that. Yes, flight training is expensive. But every student pilot knows this and budgets for it when they decide to do it. The actual #1 reason a student pilot fails is because they do not have a good, fundamental understanding of the private pilot knowledge they are meant to learn in ground school. You see when a student does not have a good grasp of this knowledge they get to a point in their flight training where their mind just can't keep up. They start making mistakes and having to redo lessons. And THAT is when it starts getting too expensive. This audio ground school is meant for the modern day student pilot... aka the part time student pilot. Let's face it, the majority of us have full time responsibilities on top of flight training. Whether it is a job, kids, family, school, etc. we all keep ourselves busy with the things that are important to us. And with today's economy we have to maintain that job just to pay for the training. The modern day student pilot is busy, on the go and always trying to find time throughout his or her day to stay up on their studies. The audio ground school allows them to consume high quality content while walking, running, working out, sitting in traffic, traveling, or even just a break from the boring FAR/AIM or ground school lecture. Did I meant high quality content? The audio ground school is taken straight out of the 5-star rated Part Time Pilot Online Ground School that has had over 350 students take and pass their Private Pilot exams without a SINGLE STUDENT FAILING. We do this by keeping ground school engaging, fun, light and consumable. We have written lessons, videos, audio lessons, live video lessons, community chats, quizzes, practice tests, flash cards, study guides, eBooks and much more. Part Time Pilot was created to be a breath of fresh air for student pilots. To be that flight training provider that looks out for them and their needs. So that is just what we are doing with this podcast.     Episode 48: In this episode, we start with the first lesson in the section on Weight & Balance. Adhering to weight and balance principles is critical for safe flight operations, as it affects the aircraft's stability, control, and performance characteristics. Pilots and operators must carefully calculate and monitor weight and balance to ensure the aircraft operates within its designed limits and maintains optimal flight characteristics.     Links mentioned in the episode: Online Ground School: https://parttimepilot.com/private-pilot-online-ground-school/?utm_source=podcast How to Become a Private Pilot FREE Course: https://parttimepilot.com/free-how-to-become-a-pilot/ Ultimate Private Pilot Test Prep Book: https://amzn.to/40LSyLM Weight & Balance Theory: https://youtu.be/rQYBGJoDxd4       15% Off Aviation Headsets Discount: Part Time Pilot Students & Listeners can now receive 15% off & Free Shipping on Kore Aviation Headsets using the coupon code 'parttimepilot': https://www.koreheadset.com/discount/parttimepilot

Maybe never even real? Episode Takeaways: The common misconceptions around ‘balance' and where they come from and why we've bought into them A healthy way of looking at balance with 3 pillars of your life What trips us up when it comes to ‘balance' eg the guilt, others priorities, focussing on things that don't really matter to you  How can we re-think and recreate what ‘balance' really is for us - the permission to change, the toolkits we need and the 3 pillars broken down   Erika is on a mission to arm others with tools and tips so that they can redefine balance on their own terms to curate a lifestyle that feels fulfilling and more importantly, one that's sustainable.

I've constantly been surprised by who I attract in, as was Erika from The Balance Theory who also noticed the same phenomena. I connect this to V4V by explaining how an engaged listener will invariably give back, no matter their race, creed or gender.No boosts this week.

Ephesians 1:4, “He chose us in Him, before the foundations of the world, to be holy and blameless in His sight.”Acts 9:1-6, "Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord's disciples. He went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem. Ashe neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” God calls us to a relationship.Being must precede doing.God's Call Requires Obedience.John 15:16, “You did not choose me, but I chose you. I appointed you that you should go out and produce fruit, and that your fruit should remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.”Philippians 4:19, “And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory.”1 Thessalonians 2:4, “We speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people but God, who tests our hearts.”Challenge:Make sure being a Christ follower precedes doing the work of the ministry.Affirm the Center before Exploring the Edges.Balance Theory with Practice.
