[Life Intended] The Path to Balance.


Hey Reader,

Balance. Presence. Being where your feet are.

That sounds good, right?

That’s some version of what we’re all working towards, isn’t it?

Sunday, at a goal-setting workshop I attended called Activate, I was struck by two very different perspectives from two incredible women.

One shared that she’s working on compartmentalizing her life—being a business owner, her role as a mom, her marriage—so she can be fully present in each area. Instead of letting it all blend together, she’s focusing on giving her attention to one thing at a time.

The other shared that she’s doing the opposite. She’s working on removing boundaries, allowing herself to be fully who she is in every space, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of feeling like she has to be one person at work and another at home, she’s giving herself permission to just be.

At first, these approaches seemed completely different. But as I listened, I realized they’re aiming for the same thing: balance, presence, and the freedom to be authentic.

And isn’t that the heart of what we’re all striving for? To feel grounded, clear, and aligned. To show up fully in our lives without feeling pulled in a million directions.

This conversation reminded me of why my business partner, Sadie Wackett, and I are so passionate about the work we do through our Women’s Circles. Whether you’re seeking to compartmentalize or blend, to clarify or expand, The Balanced Life Circle is about helping you assess your current state, rediscover your true values and create the kind of life you truly want.

Our Spring 2025 Women’s Circle kicks off the last week of February at Om Shanti Yoga in Tequesta, FL, and we’d love to have you join us.

If you’re interested, just reply to this email, and I’ll make sure you’re first to know when the details drop later this week.

Not local? You’re not left out! We’re also hosting a virtual Women’s Circle so you can experience the same intentional space no matter where you are. Reply to this email to get on our list and we'll let you know as soon as we have those details available.

No matter how you frame it—compartmentalizing or blending—the goal is the same: finding balance, cultivating presence, and aligning your life with what truly matters.

If that resonates with you, let’s create that space together this spring.

Hey Reader! Over the past few weeks, Sadie and I have been doing some really deep work on the vision and mission for our rebrand of Life Intended. One of the most exciting (and honestly, clarifying) parts of this process has been defining our core values. And not just what we value as individuals, but the values that Life Intended will stand for as a brand and community. I've done work on helping people and businesses identify their values for the past 10+ years and going through this process...

Life Intended Podcast with host Kelly Berry

Hey Reader! In our constant journey toward a balanced life, we often focus on the "big" areas: career, relationships, health, and finances. Don't get me wrong, those are important. But what about having fun? What about joy? That spark of lightness, playfulness, and fun that makes life feel fun and you feel alive? In our upcoming The Balanced Life coaching program, Sadie and I dive into the neglected but essential theme of Joy & Fun. Our week of Joy is all about reconnecting with the things...

Life Intended Podcast with host Kelly Berry

Reader, Have you ever felt that subtle pull in a certain direction or a quiet voice within urging you to take—or avoid—a step? That’s your intuition. It’s the inner compass we all have, yet so often ignore in favor of logic, noise, or the opinions of others. During the last Women’s Circle I co-facilitated with Sadie Wackett, we spent time reflecting on our knowing, our intuition, and the decisions we’ve made—both when we’ve listened to it and when we haven’t. In that reflection, I had a...
