What if your business feels harder than it should because you’re following strategies that were never designed for you?

Business coach Vicki Ibaugh reveals how knowing how you’re naturally wired can help you stop forcing success and start building a business that actually fits your life.

In this episode of The Balanced, Beautiful & Abundant Show, Rebecca Whitman sits down with Vicki Ibaugh, certified business coach, certified Kolbe Consultant, and founder of Know You To Grow You Business Coaching.

Vicki shares why even smart, capable women can invest in all the right courses, coaches, and strategies and still feel overwhelmed or stuck. The missing piece may not be another strategy—it may be deeper self-awareness.

Through tools including Kolbe, Human Design, personal values, and energy leadership, Vicki helps women understand how they naturally take action, identify where unnecessary friction is showing up, and create businesses that support both their ambitions and their well-being.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

* Why someone else’s successful business strategy may not work for you—and how to recognize what actually fits.

* How Kolbe, Human Design, values, and energy leadership can reveal how you naturally work and make decisions.

* How to “find the friction” and use overwhelm, resistance, and stuckness as valuable information.

* Why doing more isn’t always the answer and how to focus your time and energy on what truly moves your business forward.

* How to replace hustle with alignment and build sustainable success without sacrificing your personal life or well-being.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’m doing everything they told me to do—so why does this still feel so hard?” this conversation will help you rethink the way you’re building your business.

In this fascinating episode of The Balanced, Beautiful & Abundant Show, Rebecca Whitman sits down with naturopathic doctor, researcher, and longevity expert Dr. Erica Oberg to uncover why deprivation, restriction, and endlessly tracking your health may actually be keeping you from the vitality you’re working so hard to create.

Drawing on more than 20 years in integrative and regenerative medicine, Dr. Oberg reveals the science behind Healthy Hedonism—the idea that pleasure isn’t something you earn after you get healthy. It can actually be part of the prescription.
