For award-winning radio presenter, television personality, author and mother Carol Ofori, the secret isn't about achieving perfect balance. It's about giving yourself permission to be human.

Award-winning radio presenter, television personality, author and mother Carol Ofori is encouraging women to redefine what it means to "have it all".

Rather than chasing perfect work-life balance, Ofori believes women should give themselves permission to be human and recognise that their priorities and needs will change throughout different stages of life.

Ofori said honest self-reflection is essential to maintaining balance and adapting to life's changing demands.

"I think the biggest key to balancing everything is honest self-reflection. You have to allow yourself grace to make mistakes and understand that you're constantly evolving," she said.
