Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Well, it is official after seven years of working part-time hours, I have accepted a full-time secretary position in an educational setting. I am excited and nervous about this transition. Even though I know this is a great opportunity, I feel my emotions and mind jumping all over the place. Simply put, I feel myself out of balance.

When we find ourselves out of balance, our lives may include challenges, such as burnout, health problems, financial distress, emotional eating, isolation, and relationship issues just to name a few. Don’t worry, take a deep breath, and know that it happens to the best of us. It’s important for you to know that transitioning back to greatness and regaining balance in life is the key to your peace and happiness.
