About the Podcast

Busy Woman's Guide to Wellbeing
Mindset, Balance & Fitness for Real Life
The Busy Woman’s Guide is a wellness podcast for women looking for a healthy lifestyle that fits THEIR rhythm, not a cookie cutter version of all the “shoulds” and to-do lists out there.

Hosted by Alix Hubble, women’s therapeutic, fitness and life coach, I take you deeper into a wellbeing for YOU.

Because you already know what it takes to build healthy habits, and you’ve got enough productivity tips, workout motivation hacks, and tips for how to be consistent, how to stop procrastinating and how to achieve work life balance to last a lifetime.

So let’s explore what really sits beneath your burnout, your lack of consistency, your self sabotage, or your need to always “be on it.”

This is your permission slip to stop performing, start listening to yourself, and create a rhythm that actually fits your life.

If you’re asking questions like these….this is the place to be:

- How to stop overthinking?
- How can I be productive without burning out?
- How can I stop tying my self worth and self esteem to being busy?
- How can I stop self-sabotaging my progress?
- How do I feel more comfortable in my own skin again?
