Our Story

Everyday Balance began in 2020 when our founder, Emma Chen, recognized a troubling pattern in the wellness industry: an overwhelming focus on dramatic transformations, expensive products, and unsustainable practices that left many people feeling inadequate or overwhelmed.

Having spent over a decade in behavioral psychology and wellness education, Emma wanted to create a different kind of resource—one that celebrated the power of simple, accessible habits that anyone could integrate into their existing routines without major lifestyle overhauls or financial investments.

What started as a small blog sharing evidence-based information about hydration, movement, and nature connection has evolved into a comprehensive platform offering workshops, consultations, and community events. Throughout our growth, we've remained committed to our founding principle: wellness should be accessible to everyone, free from pressure and unrealistic promises.

In 2025, we formalized our approach and established our San Francisco headquarters, creating a physical space that embodies the balance and simplicity we advocate. Today, our community spans the globe, united by a shared commitment to gentle, sustainable well-being practices that enhance daily life without demanding perfection.

Our Mission & Values

Our Mission

At Everyday Balance, we strive to empower individuals to enhance their well-being through simple, sustainable daily practices that integrate seamlessly into existing routines. We believe that small, consistent habits can create profound improvements in quality of life without requiring radical lifestyle changes or creating additional stress.

Accessibility

We believe that wellness should be available to everyone, regardless of circumstance. Our approach emphasizes practices that require minimal time, equipment, or financial investment.

Evidence-Based

While we avoid medical claims, our recommendations are grounded in current scientific understanding of behavioral psychology and lifestyle factors that contribute to overall well-being.

Sustainability

We focus on habits that can be maintained long-term without causing burnout or requiring willpower. True wellness comes from consistent practices that feel natural and enjoyable.

Individuality

We recognize that each person's journey is unique. Rather than prescribing universal solutions, we provide frameworks that can be adapted to individual preferences, needs, and circumstances.

Portrait of Sarah Tanaka

"What I appreciate most about Everyday Balance is their refreshingly realistic approach. They don't promise miracle transformations or sell expensive products—instead, they've helped me identify simple changes that actually fit into my hectic schedule as a working parent. Their hydration workshop completely changed how I think about water intake, and their morning movement guide has been a sustainable addition to my routine for over six months now."

— Sarah Tanaka, Community Member since January 2025

Portrait of Michael Lopez

"As someone who was deeply skeptical of the wellness industry after years of disappointment with trendy programs, I found Everyday Balance's approach to be genuinely different. Their focus on evidence-based practices without the typical marketing hype was refreshing. The community they've built feels supportive without being pushy, and I've experienced noticeable improvements in my energy levels since implementing their nature exposure recommendations."

— Michael Lopez, Workshop Participant

Unlike previous wellness initiatives that saw low engagement, their accessible habits resonated with our diverse workforce. Their team worked closely with us to develop custom recommendations that acknowledged our employees' varying schedules and responsibilities. The result has been improved team morale and a workplace culture that genuinely supports well-being."
