Why Work-Life Balance Doesn't Work (Do This Instead)

Work-life balance gets talked about a lot, but I don’t think balance is really what most of us are looking for. We’re looking for a rhythm that works. A rhythm that works for you, your family, your work, your goals and the season of life you’re actually in. In this video, I’ll walk you through how to work out what that looks like — from getting clear on your priorities and making space for yourself, to getting better at saying no to the stuff that doesn’t actually matter. Because the answer isn’t always more. Sometimes it’s better. If you feel like everything is competing for your time and you’ve lost a bit of yourself amongst it all, start here. ----------- Chapters 00:00 - The problem with work-life balance 01:07 - Does balance actually exist? 01:39 - Stop chasing balance, find your rhythm 02:10 - What season of life are you in? 03:14 - Forget equal spread 03:44 - Get clear on your priorities 04:47 - Stop asking what.
