Calm Your Daily Stress - Stress Relief for the Busy Woman

E232 Balance vs. Resilience: What You Really Need with Charlotte Haggie

Denise Eckert

As a qualified coach and mum of two, Charlotte is disbanding the myth of ‘balance’ and highlighting the need for resilience for working mums who long to be focused, present and productive as they lead at work and at home.

Through her Ease Over Effort™ Framework, Charlotte helps women build the mental muscles of resilience so that they do not buckle under the stress of life but have the capacity to hold a heavier ‘load’ with more ease, peace and calm.

Charlotte is the Founder and Host of top 2% globally-ranked podcast The Resilient Working Mum (dedicated to all things stress management and resilient building for working mums) and a sought-after Coach for women working in the corporate world or in their own businesses.

In this episode:

  • Charlotte shares that “balance” is a myth, because life isn’t a perfect scale with work on one side and life on the other.
  • She explains that most of us aren’t balancing… we’re walking a tightrope while juggling way too many balls at once.
  • She talks about how the real goal isn’t perfect balance—it’s resilience, so you can handle life with more ease, peace, and calm.
  • Charlotte shares that resilience isn’t about building a hard shield… it’s about staying rooted and flexible, like a strong tree in a storm.
  • She explains that stress is an internal response to an external situation, and it often comes from the story you tell yourself about whether you can handle it.
  • Charlotte talks about “identity-based stress,” like feeling you have to be the capable one, the good girl, the perfectionist, or the people pleaser.
  • She shares that one of the fastest ways to lower stress is rebuilding self-trust—start small (like drinking a glass of water every morning), then stack one new habit at a time.
