Use This Skill For More Work-Life Balance

Rethinking communication and expectations in the workplace.

Work-life balance is a buzzword that has too much squeeze, but not enough juice. That’s why Rachael and I focused on it during this episode of The Unobstructed Podcast.

The Unobstructed Podcast: Episode 02

In this conversation, we take a hard look at who’s responsible for work-life balance—companies or individuals? We also discuss the role of personal boundaries in the workplace, being intentional about taking time off, and the ways routines impact our perception of time.

Managing expectations and clear communication come up a lot. Especially when acknowledging messages received without a full solution included.

Oh, and schedule-sending. And measuring performance by results rather than hours worked (because somehow that’s controversial???)

Give it a listen and let us know what you think.
