Our most common question! There are three components to time:

Watching your modules

Each week is around 1.5hrs ish of content, broken up into as small segments as possible. Individual videos may range from 3 minutes up to 40 minutes, depending on the content. You can watch it at 1.5x speed if you wish!

Completing your homework

At the end of each week, you submit your homework. These are simple questions designed to hold you accountable for the choices you have made to implement for the next week. These are short, sharp questions that prompt reflection and are not time-intensive. You will receive personalised feedback on your homework each week to deepen your enquiry or ensure you're in alignment with your objectives for the program.

Attending Q&A Calls

These calls go for around 60 to 90 minutes, depending on what is being discussed. These are camera-on, fully present, interactive Zoom meetings that will quickly become your favourite time of the week. 

Balance & Beyond is an ongoing Executive Coaching Program, which means you can join at any time. This makes for a wonderful culture where those on the Q&A Calls will be anywhere from weeks 1 to 12: you'll be inspired by those ahead of you in the program, and be able to see how far you've come as you progress.

There are two Q&A Calls each Tuesday, to give you flexibility around your schedule. 

To allow you to get to know the people in your tribe, we typically prefer you pick a tribe and attend each week, however we know calendars are full and life is busy. The opportunity to flex is there if you need it.

Your three 1:1 coaching calls are with our amazing mindset coach, Jaclyn.

Jaclyn's genius lies in her somatic background, and ability to get you out of your head and into your source of confidence, calm and peace which lies in your body.

No past experience is necessary to work with Jaclyn, and most women have never been exposed to this type of session before which is why it's so powerful.

The powerful combination of mindset and somatics sees women release decades of trapped emotions within a 30 minute session. Yes, really! 

No! This program is open to all women, regardless of whether they're attached, or have children.

While many women who come to the Balance Institute are juggling a family and their career, this is increasingly taking on a different flavour.

Some women are caring for aging parents, managing multiple business or side-hustles, or are part-time co-parents in a blended family.

What binds this group together is that work is an important part of who we are. We are ambitious and want to reach our potential in life, and the thought of settling for anything less is horrifying.

While any advice is best provided by a registered tax agent in your location, we can reassure you that this is considered an Executive Coaching Program and is listed so on any invoices. It's typically directly related to your paid employment, and has been claimed as a tax deduction by the vast majority of participants.

Depending on your role, level and organisations policy on personal development, it may be possible to get your employer to fully or part fund your coaching.

This can be powerfully woven into a personal development plan, especially if you have a supportive manager who knows you're struggling with burnout, balancing competing responsibilities or aren't performing to your potential.

We have documentation we can provide to your employer that amplifies all the work-focused benefits of our approach, and makes a compelling argument as to why they should support a highly tailored program for women that's outside their existing options.

You have access to the video modules for a total of 6 months from when you begin your program, which provides you a further 12 weeks after you finish to integrate and revisit any materials.

There are are a range of downloadable worksheets and other resources which are yours to keep.

Regardless of having video access, the knowledge and tools are yours for life, and ideally, become a core part of how you show up every day.

A common worry is that any changes seen will only be temporary and life will go back to as it is now once you've completed the program. 

Rest assured, this isn't the case. There are things you learn about yourself while in this Program that you can't unsee, which means your patterns will forever be changed.

The tools are also yours to practise again and again, so you step into your best life.

As with anything, these tools, like muscles, will need building, however participants see so much change in 12 weeks that they're excited to continue the journey.

After 12 weeks in this community you will be feeling confident, calm and empowered to create the life you want.

You will then become part of the Graduate Community and be able to access regular Graduate calls, provided free as a way for you to be reminded of your toolkit and tap into the energy of the tribe.

There are other opportunities to continue the journey depending on what you need, which will be discussed in your final coaching call,
