The Living Full Out show with Nancy Solari wants to support you in balancing life. Perhaps there was a time where you felt overwhelmed by all the responsibilities you had to take on. Maybe juggling work or school, family and friends, and time for relaxation became too much for your schedule. Learning how to devote the needed amount of time to each aspect of your life is a key route to finding peace within yourself. Focusing on what is most important while still creating enough time for other portions of your life will lead to stability.

Our first caller is Kirsten, a college student who had a plan of obtaining a degree and a job but is now feeling lost as to what she wants to do. Nancy tells Kirsten to find comfort in that there are many other people who have been in her position. Kirsten can take a career survey to discover a job that will match her interests so that she will have a better sense of what direction to take. She can make changes and diversify herself by going beyond her major and taking on internships that follow her passions.

Our inspirational guest is Michael Veltri, who defeated testicular and lung cancer and still managed to run a marathon at the age of 42. Michael did not surrender to cancer, but rather focused on taking one small step at a time towards survival. Michael surrounded himself with family and friends who were his support system. By ridding himself of all negative self-talk, he was able to overcome the adversities of cancer.

Our last caller is Catrice, who is unsure of how to approach her boyfriend who has been unemployed for a year about moving on with her life. Nancy advises Catrice to be there for her partner. Catrice can show him his potential to balance life and gain pride again. She can ask her significant other to begin bettering himself without relying on her.

Maybe you have felt that you were being pulled too much in one direction. Perhaps your time and energy were being taken up by one thing. Making a schedule each month will allow you to accomplish your goals without becoming stressed. Planning your future ahead of time will give you a head start on balancing life and living full out.
