I’m Dr. Jessica Love Jordan, and you’ve found Love Behavioral Health's blog, The Balance Beam—a space for reflection, insight, and a little humor. If I’ve learned anything over the years, it’s that life doesn’t come with a pause button. Responsibilities stack up, deadlines loom, and somewhere between trying to do everything and trying to be everything, we forget about ourselves. But balance isn’t about juggling perfectly. Instead, it’s about knowing what’s worth holding and what you can put down.

I believe that healing should be accessible and practical. I’ve seen too many people run themselves into the ground trying to live up to unrealistic expectations without ever asking, "What do I actually need right now?"

Whether you’re here for a fresh perspective, practical tips to support yourself or your team, or just a healthier distraction than doom scrolling, I hope you find something that speaks to you. 

If you’re looking for a sign to slow down—this is it.

This blog is a space to take a breath, get a little perspective, and maybe even laugh at the chaos of it all. Whether I’m sharing mental health insights, tips for building a healthier workplace, or just some semi-unserious thoughts on surviving adulting, I hope you leave feeling seen, supported, and maybe a little bit lighter.

To being balanced and protecting your beam,

Dr. Love Jordan
