from Say it Sister... · host Lucy Barkas & Karen Heras Kelly

Send us Fan MailLeanne SpencerBalance sounds elegant until real life starts throwing curveballs. We open up about why “perfect equilibrium” keeps so many women stuck and how a flexible blend, anchored in agency and integrity, can carry you further with less struggle. Our guest, award‑winning keynote speaker and best‑selling author Leanne Spencer, takes us from the city highs and the crash of burnout to the practical tools that helped her rebuild energy, mood, and motivation for the long haul.We talk candidly about the pressure to do it all, the trap of hustle culture, and the emotional toll of ignoring what your body is trying to tell you. Leanne breaks down her Sustain framework into four powerful pillars: values that set clean boundaries, identity that inspires ownership, community that buffers stress and boosts longevity, and resources that turn intentions into daily action. Expect real stories, like the moment a panic attack became a turning point, and the Arctic lesson that proved small fixes done early prevent big problems later.You’ll learn a simple one-thing method for energy, mood, and motivation, how to cultivate a high-agency mindset when life feels heavy, and why stopping can be the most productive move you make today. We also explore volunteering, chosen tribes, and the quiet strength of doing the right thing when nobody is watching. If you’ve been wondering how to sustain success without losing yourself, this conversation offers clear steps, compassionate truths, and a reminder that you don’t have to pick between achievement and wellbeing.If this spoke to you, tap follow, share it with a sister who’s carrying too much, and leave us a review so more women can find these tools. Your voice helps us build a braver, kinder community.Send us a comment, ask a question, or suggest a topic. We would love to hear from you
