I love joining Twitter chats: I always learn from the participants, and I always meet amazing people. I love even more being a guest and sharing everything I know about Life-Work Balance.

#InTheSpotlight with #Digital360Chat, however, offers more than that: It gives the chat participants the opportunity to get to know the guest on a more personal level. I think Bernie Fussenegger and Kyle Hetrick are doing a fantastic job at featuring their guests.

The questions focused on what I do and what I love, and it was a great discussion that covered personal life, habits, advice on how to live better.

If you missed the chat, no worries! Below is the recap for you.

Q1 for @SabrinaCadini – What is your current profession and what was the path you took to get there? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific.

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A1: It was a long path: From modeling to event / wedding planning, now I found my purpose as a #LifeWorkBalance Strategist helping busy professionals improve their well-being, transform their lifestyle, and become more successful in their business #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat pic.twitter.com/3MRKzXIi92

Wow…you have done it all!!! Not many people get the chance to redefine their career or even their career path. How were you able to make the change? Did you rely on your past experiences as examples of what others might be dealing with? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

What a way to start off!!! Already have learned so many different aspects of your career path. One thing that is consistent is that you have dealt with people and audiences all along the way. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Do you see other professions dealing with some of the same burn-out that you have experienced in the past? I see it with myself sometimes and it is good to step back and reflect on priorities and to focus on oneself. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

Yes, I think it’s part of the way we live today: always busy, always bombarded by distractions, always working working working, regardless of the job you do #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

That gives yourself a great understanding of the importance of relationships and really understanding and know not only who you are but your audience #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

And in the Digital age, it is hard to turn it off and walk away…someone is always expecting that answer right now. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

Yes, and that’s one of the reasons why most of my clients are always stressed out, they’re always connected and they can’t unplug … #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

And it is hard to say no especially when it is your boss or those that depend on your teams to get the job done #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Exactly, it makes things worse when you work for someone, so you must prioritize your needs in order to keep your sanity in the workplace #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

This is where Life and a Work balance need to come into play. I always tell people that work will always be there but the “firsts” of your family will not. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Yeah, and we need to put ourselves first on the list. Then we’re able to take care of everything else #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Q2 for @SabrinaCadini – Why did you choose your profession? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific.

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A2 (1/2): This profession chose me because of my personal experience.
After burnout I felt the need to help others who were (and many still are) in my situation. Life comes first, then work can get done #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance pic.twitter.com/Ve149OEGfy

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

A2 (2/2): It seems counter-intuitive, but when you invest in the time to take care of yourself, you have more time for your job and for yourself because you are more focused, less tired or stressed out, and more productive #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

This is so true…if you are not 100%, or not putting yourself first, your work will suffer…take care of yourself first and everything else will follow. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

And this includes all aspects that you mentioned…eating correctly, exercise, taking care of your body and mind #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Yes, exactly. Our body and mind are a system, not two different entities – When they play together we can achieve anything we want #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Is this hard for those that you coach to understand? It seems so simple but not always top of mind. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

It’s very difficult because many of them don’t know the science behind foods or sleep, for instance, and what they can do for you. Therefore, they think new habits are not that important for their physical and mental health #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

I found this quote from you on your website…and it has a ton of meaning – “We need to take care of ourselves before everything else in life. Our Health is our Wealth.” #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Here is one thing that I always try to remember. Your kids and family will always remember when you were not there but no-one will remember what you did or didn’t do at work in the end. It is what kind of person are you and what to be. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

I couldn’t agree more, Bernie! We often forget about the most important people and things in life, such as your family, your personal experiences, those moments that enrich your life and your memories #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Do you feel that professionals try to stay connected or putting work first because it will help them advance their careers? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

Yes, of course, They prioritize work because that’s what pays their bills, what’s what makes them look good, and they neglect their health. Unfortunately, this can lead to chronic stress, fatigue, and disease #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Q3 for @SabrinaCadini – What is the favorite part of what you do each day? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific @B2The7 & @KHetrific.

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A3: I love connecting with people. This is one of the reasons why I love social media!
I also love to dedicate time to myself by practicing self-care, it allows me to get the right energy to focus and help others #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance pic.twitter.com/gqrodnizFe

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

I can certainly relate to this, Sabrina!

I’m an introvert myself, but
I love connecting with people and learning more about them.

There’s always something that makes that person special and unique. 🙂#InTheSpotlight

— Bentley University (@bentleyu) March 15, 2019

I fit in here as well…I have to force myself at times to come out of that shell because I really do like engaging and talking with people #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

How have Twitter Chats helped with your connecting with others? And how did you start #PeriGirls? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

I created amazing connections by finding like-minded people, I was able to expand my network and share my message.
I joined #PeriGirls just a few months after I started on Periscope in 2015 and I loved the safe environment for female broadcasters #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

You are correct here…that is what I really love about chats, you engage with like-minded peeps who respect each other and their thoughts and opinions. You don’t have to agree all the time, but it is professional and welcoming #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

I agree! The beauty of connections is that you can enrich your (and others’) personal / professional life.
I feel blessed to live in an era where technology brings us closer, why not take the advantage to meet people? #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Q4 for @SabrinaCadini – What are ways that you engage with others on Social? Favorite Social Channels? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A4: Twitter chats are excellent to start / continue conversations.
Favorite channels: Twitter, Instagram, and Periscope.
I also share tips and strategies in my Facebook Group, YES to #LifeWorkBalance (link in bio)#InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat pic.twitter.com/mvVzzKWEQY

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

This IS ALL TRUE with chats and the communities…it is the support and wanted everyone to do well along with learning more about each other #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

Twitter Chat are also a great area in which you can be yourself and come out of your shell to share, to communicate with others but to take the relationships and engagement outside of those chats #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Agreed, that’s where you can start and continue conversations, and create relationships, or even collaborations 🙂 #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Q5 for @SabrinaCadini – One thing you are proud of that you have accomplished? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A5: I’m very proud of this new chapter in my life where I change and transform the lives of busy and overwhelmed professionals by sharing the science behind how our body and brain work, so that they can live and work better #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance pic.twitter.com/S9lh1EOtPp

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Time is only an excuse…you can find the time for the things you really want to do…comes back to the habits that you form and changing the way you think. Sometimes, people just need to have the guidance to get there. #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

“Time is only an excuse”, so true! Replacing habits is also very difficult for my clients, that’s why we work on eliminating the old ones and creating new ones one at a time #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Yes…habits are hard to replace but you also have to want to change and that is part of the mind shift that is important…and once you see results, it makes it easier to change bad habits #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

This is the hardest part indeed, I can inspire you to change but you have to feel motivated. That’s why I give scientific explanations to let my clients understand why they need to change a habit (sleep is a must because …) #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

You are doing great work for your clients…your positive attitude and the way you approach your career and profession is refreshing to see and to hear about. So glad you found this path for yourself and for those you are helping! #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat

— Bernie Fussenegger 🐝✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) March 15, 2019

Q6 for @SabrinaCadini – Any advice for others just getting started? #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat @B2The7 & @KHetrific

— Digital360Chat (@Digital360Chat) March 15, 2019

A6: Besides the usual advice such as “Do it, don’t wait, follow your dreams, never give up”, which is great, I would add “Enjoy every single moment of it”. Enjoy the journey, it’s all part of your experience #InTheSpotlight #Digital360Chat #LifeWorkBalance pic.twitter.com/hSopgNXVmY

— Sabrina Cadini (@SabrinaCadini) March 15, 2019

Great…great…great and great perspective right here. Enjoy life…look around and look at the grass, the trees, the little things…just enjoy it! #InTheSpotlight with the #Digital360Chat
