Work-Life Balance: Corporate Life, Agency Freelancing, Airbnb, and Running with Katie Ross

The Samantha Parker Show

We're hanging out with the amazing Katie Ross today! We chatted about everything from body image and running to finding that tricky work-life balance, plus some wild stories from our runs.

Katie opened up about her journey, sharing how she tackled challenges with body confidence, her experience with PCOS treatment, and how each career pivot brought her closer to a better work-life balance. She walked us through her career, from big agency life to creating a balanced, fulfilling work life.

We also shared the struggles of having family members dealing with alcoholism and how we handle society's drinking norms.

Katie didn't hold back when talking about work ethics, job uncertainty in the corporate world, and running her Airbnb near Zion National Park. And yep, she spilled the tea on the agency world, especially the pressures women face.

This conversation is packed with inspiration and real talk about why we would lean into what we love even if it’s a scary change.

You miss every opportunity you aren’t willing to take. When are you going to start saying yes to the next version of you. Success and that dream life is one “yes”, followed by action, away.
