Finding Harmony in Life and Work
Tina Wells: Reclaiming Balance and Redefining Success
True success lies in finding joy, rest, and purpose — happiness and achievement can coexist.
In the fast-paced world of entrepreneurship, it’s easy to get lost in the hustle. Tina Wells knows this all too well. As an entrepreneur, author, and business strategist, Tina spent over a decade building her career, helping others create impactful, purpose-driven brands. But after years of pushing herself to the limit, she reached a point where burnout was no longer avoidable. "I found myself exhausted, searching for a better way to live and work," she reflects.
In 2019, Tina made a powerful choice: to redefine what success meant for her. No longer willing to continue running on empty, she made the decision to break the cycle and build a life that nourished both her work and her well-being. “The harder I pushed, the more I drained myself. It was time to stop,” she says. “Recreation changed everything. I rediscovered joy—for me, not for anyone else.”
This shift wasn’t about perfection; it was about creating space for moments of joy, play, and rest—not out of obligation, but out of desire. Tina learned that true balance wasn’t about doing more; it was about doing less and being present. Recreation, for Tina, became the key to replenishing her energy and gaining clarity, helping her regain a sense of purpose and direction. "I learned to embrace moments of joy and play, not because I had to, but because I wanted to. Recreation gave me clarity and energy I didn’t know I needed,” she says.
As Tina embraced balance in her life, she found that it not only transformed her days but her entire outlook. The clarity and peace that came with giving herself permission to rest allowed her to show up more fully for herself and her goals. “By choosing balance, I discovered more energy, clarity, and peace to fuel my dreams,” she reflects. “Those moments of balance didn’t just transform my days—they transformed my life.”
For Tina, the journey to living spectacularly isn’t about achieving perfection or adhering to an unrelenting grind. It's about embracing balance—finding those precious moments of clarity, joy, and peace that fuel the life we truly want to live. By making space for what truly matters, we can stop running on empty and start living with purpose, authenticity, and vitality.
Through Tina's journey, we are reminded that sometimes, in the pursuit of our goals, we must not forget to take care of ourselves. By choosing balance, we create the energy, clarity, and peace necessary to live a truly spectacular life.
We don’t have to choose between success and well-being. We can redefine what success means for ourselves, choosing a life that feels as good as it looks. It’s a call to embrace our own rhythm, step into the joy of the present moment, and create a life that reflects our truest selves.
