THE BALANCED LEADER™
Create more balance and less stress—in your life and as a leader.
Keynotes, workshops, and coaching to help leaders and teams slow down the pace and focus on what really matters, navigate everyday stressors with more resilience, and enjoy a healthier work-life balance—instead of burning out.
BALANCE BALANCE
why this matters
In a world with so many demands and expectations, balance is a strategic move.
Constant stress, busyness, and working long hours at the expense of our well-being and mental health isn’t just unnecessary—it hurts our performance and leadership. Because it’s really hard to be your best when you’re burned out, overwhelmed, or pulled in way too many directions.
There’s a better way to live, work, and lead than what we’ve been taught all our lives, and working harder doesn't equal success. People are also wanting flexibility and a better work life, and the workforce is changing — many don't want to grind it out each day or sacrifice what truly matters.
You can lead by example and drive meaningful change for yourself, your team, your family, and your organization to create more balance, stress less, and perform at a high level—even with the constant demands and messiness of everyday.
Besides, life is too short to be so busy!

about stacey olson, cppc
I’m a Speaker, Leadership and Positive Psychology Certified Coach, and Author of Your Balanced and Bold Life: Work Less, Live More, and Be Your Best. I have 20 years of corporate and business experience and have gone through my own transformational change—going from working 60+ hour weeks and burning out trying to juggle my marriage and three kids, time for myself, and the rest of life—to figuring out how to be more balanced, happier, and successful.
Now I work with leaders and professionals at all levels, many of whom are navigating the daily demands of work, family, and messy everyday life to help them create more balance, stress less, and be their best. You can lead stronger, perform better, and enjoy your days so much more when you do.
Hey there, I'm Stacey!

Stacey was able to partner with members of my leadership team and constructively identify and address foundational divisional issues within a relatively short engagement. I found Stacey to be a beacon of positive outlook and a convicting example of what success can look like when one pursues the important instead of just the urgent.

The Balanced Leader workshop was a refreshing and actionable experience that helped me reassess who I am and how to align my actions with my priorities, all while maintaining healthy boundaries. This invaluable experience provided a complete reset of my values, priorities, boundaries, goals, and most importantly, my mindset.
