As I'm slowly returning back from paternity leave, I thought it would be fitting to share an episode on the very thing we work for:

Our life.

 Is having work-life balance achievable?

Is it realistic?

What does work-life balance even mean to me?

These are likely questions you've had running through your head.

What does your current work-life balance look like?

And what is your own definition of work-life balance?

You want a successful career.

You want to earn good money.

But you're also getting stressed out

Not spending enough time with family and friends, barely time for hobbies or some exercise at the end of your Workday.

Something's got to give.

Stuff You Should Know
Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
