VIDA Media for Work-Life Balance

Our podcast and YouTube channel focus on the importance of work-life balance as a full-time working mom or dad.

At VIDA Coworking, our goal is to help “make life work” by offering tools, tips and resources for a better work-life balance. That includes the production of our very own videos and podcast. Each one sheds light on the importance of work-life balance by catering to the complex lifestyle of the part- and full-time working mom or dad.

The media resources you’ll find here are regularly updated to feature new, useful content. Topics range from self-care tips for parents to advice from seasoned career coaches. So, please, grab your earbuds, sit back and enjoy!

The Make Life/Work Podcast by VIDA Coworking

Melanie Marconi in the VIDA Coworking Podcast Studio

The Make Life/Work Podcast is led by our founder, Melanie Marconi. Every week, she invites a new guest – such a business owner or corporate executive – to speak about his or her experience juggling a career and family. Each interview highlights how all working parents struggle from time to time, along with what each guest learned through their own highs and lows. After all, growing a business and a family is no easy venture! But with the right support, tips, knowledge and diligence, finding work-life balance is possible. Each podcast is roughly 30-45 minutes long.


Health, Wellness & Career Videos

VIDA’s dedicated YouTube channel, VIDA TV, offers a little something for everyone! From meditations to Pilates to beauty advice, these videos are designed to be an escape from the grind. They’re the perfect reset resource, no matter if it’s the work week or weekend.
