Ep. 35 Embracing Pivots and Prioritizing Self-Care in the Hustle Culture w/ Chelsea Sondergard

Heidi Schalk

In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and struggle to maintain a healthy work-life balance. In this episode, I chat with my sweet friend, Chelsea Sondergard. We explore the importance of embracing change and pivoting when necessary, as well as the significance of prioritizing self-care in our busy lives. We discuss strategies for avoiding burnout, setting realistic expectations, and understanding our limits to ensure a sustainable and fulfilling lifestyle. Plus, we delve into the concept of perfectionism and how it can impact our well-being, along with the need for self-reflection and appreciation of our unique gifts and strengths. Join us for an insightful conversation on the art of finding balance and thriving in the face of adversity.


Chelsea started her career in the health and exercise field as a group fitness instructor and personal trainer. While her background and education is in Exercise Science, she had a desire to help people more than just in their physical health. She combined her interest in personal development with wanting to help people live healthier lives with less stress, to create her Self-Care focused coaching business, Chelsea D Coaching, and her podcast The Mindful Self-Care Podcast. Her mission is to empower busy, high-achieving women to put themselves first so that they can have the energy show up as the best version of themselves each and every day. When she's not working in her own businesses, you can find Chelsea teaching Pilates and Barre, curled up with a book, or playing with her dogs.


In this episode you will learn: 


  • How pivoting isn’t about failure but about learning and growing. 
  • The importance of practicing self-care. 
  • The power in knowing your own limits, giftings, and being aware of what fuels you and what drains you.
