Many coaches and consultants fail to intentionally and consciously design their lives; instead, they start a business and try to fit their lives into it.
This often leads to long hours filled with multitasking, juggling various tasks such as content creation, podcasting, blogging, networking, and other responsibilities. As a result, they may overlook essential aspects of their lives, including their health, relationships, and quality time with family. Ultimately, this sacrifice undermines the balance they initially sought to achieve.
Join Dr. Terri Levine in this episode to discover how you can design your business to fit your life and achieve the freedom you envisioned when you embarked on your entrepreneurial journey.

Hey, it’s Dr Terri Levine, and I want to welcome you to the podcast. We are all about living well and earning well, and notice that living well comes first. So, years ago, when I started my company, I told my husband what I was going to be doing, and I assured him that my personal life, our family life, my health, my spirituality, my giving to the community, all of these things would be first, and my business and my client family members who I get to serve would be second. And I have done that consistently. I’ve been in business for well over 40 years. What I find is that a lot of coaches and consultants and other people in the industry of transformation, and really, in life, don’t even think about designing intentionally and consciously their life.
They start a business and it’s like, “Oh yeah, I have to fit my life into this somehow.” They’re working late hours, they’re scrolling social media, they’re constantly checking emails, content creating, going on podcasts, they’re blogging, they’re joining networking things. And their life, their health, their relationships, their time with their family, it’s like, “Yeah, I’ll get to that later.” This was a very big lesson for me. My father taught me as a kid, meaning well, “Terri, put your head down and work, work, work, and someday you’ll be able to retire.”
Well, I got kind of smart when I was in my early 30s, and I started to see that sometimes people didn’t have time to put their head down and retire because their time on the planet ended too quickly. And finally, in my late 30s, well, I guess, more like, no, my early 30s now that I think of it, I just decided that I would actually set up my life and all of my priorities in my life; my family, my health, my relationships, my spirituality, my community, all of the things that I would want someone to stand up and talk about if I would leave the planet, not what a great coach, consultant, entrepreneur, business owner I was. That happens to be something I do, it’s not who I am.
And then, I designed my business to fit into my life so that life is a priority. My family is a priority. My client family members are my second priority. I want to help you design your life so that you live well and earn well. So, I’m gifting you my free playbook, the link is here. Please make sure that you get that, it’s a free resource. It is my gift to you, my way of giving back to the world of business that has been so incredibly good to me. Thank you for being here. Subscribe.
