The kids did not ask for more hours with their parents; what most of them wanted was for their parents to be less stressed and tired when they were together. She makes the case that your relationship with your own work is a role model for your children, and that guilt is mental clutter worth clearing out. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.juliemorgenstern.com/tips-tools-blog/2020/1/30/how-to-eliminate-working-mom-guilt Quotes to ponder: "It's not whether we work, but how we feel about work that impacts kids." "Your relationship to your work serves as a role model to your kids." "Guilt about work is nothing but mental clutter, that only serves to steal additional time and energy from being present for quality time with your kids and for yourself."

What happens when the life you thought you were building suddenly stops making sense? A career takes an unexpected turn. A job disappears. A diagnosis changes the way you understand yourself. And the carefully constructed picture of work, family, and the future begins to unravel, exposing that work-life balance doesn't actually exist. In this episode of Performing Under Pressure, hosts John Tinnin, MFT, and Lynn Roush, LPC, sit down with David and Molly Cover, a couple who found themselves navigating multiple job losses, major career transitions, the discovery of ADHD, and the anxiety and grief that came with all of it. Listen in as David and Molly share honestly about what happened when their plans collided with a reality they couldn't control, and how the pressure affected their marriage, their parenting, their identities, and their faith. As they turned to God, counseling, and their community for support, they learned to navigate their anxieties rather than be controlled by them.  But this isn't a story about having everything figured out. It's a story about being disoriented, surrendering the illusion of control, and learning to reorient around what matters most. If you find yourself losing balance and going in a direction you didn't expect, God may be redirecting your destination and giving you the gift of learning to rely on him.

Send us Fan MailWhat if work-life balance isn't really about balance at all?In this episode, we challenge the familiar idea that a well-lived life means somehow becoming equally successful at work, relationships, health and everything else, while remaining calm, well-rested and mysteriously caught up on email.Instead, we explore a different question:How do we create enough space for the things that actually matter?We'll look at why greater efficiency often creates more work rather than more freedom, why every yes contains a hidden no, and how meaningful work can enrich your life without being allowed to consume it.We'll also challenge two opposite assumptions: that burnout is simply an individual time-management problem, and that caring deeply about your work is inherently unhealthy. The healthier alternative may be engagement without enmeshment, where work can provide purpose, challenge and meaning without becoming your entire identity.Finally, we introduce the SPACE framework:See the trade-offsPrioritize what mattersAudit the systemCreate boundariesEngage in life beyond workBecause perhaps the goal isn't to balance work against life.It's to deliberately allocate your finite attention, energy and time among the things that make a life worth living.Visit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com

Success in your career looks different for everyone — but no matter your industry, you'll need to take risks. Company and community builder Molly Graham took to the TED stage two years ago to share three key skills to learn before jumping off a metaphorical cliff, outlining a path off the corporate ladder and into true professional and personal growth -- and these key skills are more relevant today than ever.Today, Molly has returned to TED as the new host of the podcast, WorkLife. WorkLife is a show where Molly and her expert guests talk through the messy feelings we all experience at work—conversations that delve into our ambitions and failures. Elise Hu, host of TED Talks Daily, caught up with Molly to look back at her talk and how those ideas continue to evolve in today's world. They discuss the importance of embracing the emotional side of work, how to tell the difference between good fear and bad fear, aging, why so many successful things feel messier than we think they're supposed to, and so much more.Molly's talk originally aired in 2024. Elise and Molly's conversation was recorded in April 2026.For the full text transcript, visit https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife-transcripts Hosted on Acast.

We've all heard the advice to “do what we love” for our careers, but burnout and low wages make that advice seem like a cruel joke. Journalist Emi Nietfeld joins host Krys Boyd to discuss her disillusionment with her “millennial values” where hard work and dreaming big would pay off in the corporate world why Gen Z doesn't have a sense of optimism for their futures, and what ambition looks like now. Her article in The New York Times is “Gen Z Fell Out of Love with Work. I Don't Blame Them.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

In today's episode, Laura shares how her experiences with burnout, chronic illness, and the limitations of traditional healthcare led her from ICU nursing to nurse coaching. She introduces the concept of "soft nursing," a proactive, relationship-based approach that focuses on root causes and whole-person healing rather than crisis management.Laura also challenges the idea of work-life balance, advocating instead for a life aligned with purpose and personal values. She offers an honest look at the realities of building a coaching practice and encourages nurses to explore new possibilities without feeling pressured to make an all-or-nothing leap.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ps95nkxGOJMConnect with us:Instagram: @successfulnursecoachesWebsite: www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.comMentioned in this episode:NCR + Cohort 8https://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/

Work life balance is a myth, but work-life integration is a possibility. There are certain phrases that catch on quick, everyone starts repeating them and they are all over social media. Work life balance is one of those phrases. Everybody is saying, but no one is actually doing it.  Or knows how to do it. Maybe it is time to try work-life integration because balance is a myth. Balance sounds amazing in theory. We all want what it promises—calm, order, peaceful.  We have this idea of what balance must look like. We've chased it like it is the final boss level of adulthood. But we fail day after day. We tell ourselves if we could just find the right planner, right system, right schedule, then everything will fall into place.  There is a reason we can't achieve balance, because it is a myth.  We aren't failing to find it. The version being sold was never meant for real life. It assumes clear lines, equal categories, and predictable days. It assumes your responsibilities sit politely in separate boxes and wait their turn. That is adorable. Also false. So instead of chasing balance, I want to offer a better goal: work-life integration. Not a perfect life. Not a flawlessly managed life. Not a color-coded, guru-approved life where everyone thrives at all times and nobody ever has a meltdown. Just a life where you have moments of peace, calm, and one you enjoy. Let's talk about work-life integration. Show notes and links: https://lifeunboxed.blog/work-life-integration/ Grab your guide today!

Is it possible to have a career that fulfills you and also brings you joy? My guest, Stephen Shortt, is here to answer that question. Stephen Shortt is an Irish entrepreneur, speaker, and career expert known as the HAPPY People Guy. His mission is simple: to make the world a better place with happy people in fulfilling, rewarding careers. He built the HAPPY framework not as a product, but as a lifeline — during a period when things weren't going the way he wanted, and he needed to figure out what actually mattered. Drawing on psychology, behavioral science, and hard experience, he distilled it into five elements: Highlights, Appreciation, Progress, People, and Your Contribution. The core idea is that happiness is progress towards purpose.  Through the HAPPY People Project, Stephen runs workshops and speaks at conferences, helping high achievers stop chasing the wrong finish line — and get clear on what they actually want, not just what they think they're supposed to want.  He's a member of Entrepreneurs' Organization, a former GSEA Global Chair, and runs ETC Consult in Dublin. He lives in a three-generation home with his wife and two daughters — and is quietly building the life on his own Happy Life List. He founded the Happy People Project and created the Happy Work Life MAP, a framework to help individuals and teams align work and life by design, not by default. In our episode today, Stephen unpacks the framework of his Happy Work Life MAP and how he specifically helps individuals and teams. He is also a career and talent specialist as well as a family business facilitator.    CONNECT WITH STEPHEN  Website - https://happypeopleproject.com / stephenshortt.com   CONNECT WITH DEBI Website – https://www.debironca.com Instagram - @debironca Email – info@debironca.com Free Group Coaching - https://debi.sequoiatransitioncoaching.com/group-coaching YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DebiRoncaOfficial   Check out my online course!

Tangping — Flachliegen — gilt im Westen als Faulheit, als Aufgabe, als gesellschaftliches Problem. Dr. Ole Döring sieht das anders: Tangping ist eine völlig gesunde, instinktive Reaktion junger Menschen auf die atemberaubende Geschwindigkeit der chinesischen Modernisierung. In Teil 2 des Gesprächs im Lizijian Museum in Changsha erklärt er, warum Work-Life-Balance ein historischer Ausreißer von nur 150 Jahren ist, was Henry Ford damit zu tun hat, wie COVID den Tangping-Trend beschleunigt hat — und warum Chinakompetenz heute genauso wichtig ist wie Lesen und Schreiben. Mit drei konkreten Buchempfehlungen für den Einstieg.

If your company is growing faster than you can keep up, your manager might decide to “layer” you—that is, split your job in half or hire someone with more experience to become your boss. This is an experience a lot of people go through at work, but it's rarely talked about because it's often unpleasant for everyone involved. In this episode, Molly offers practical advice for anyone going through layering at work, from employees who find themselves sharing their job with someone new to leaders making the tough decision to hire another person for a role. She outlines 6 important things for employees to consider if they're struggling to adjust to being layered, and key principles to help managers layer their teams in a way that builds trust instead of breaking it. She also reflects on her recent conversation with Don Faul and the lessons he shared from his experience being layered during his early years at Facebook.Connect with the teamFollow Molly on Instagram, LinkedIn, and at glueclub.com/Subscribe to Molly's Substack LessonWatch WorkLife videos on YouTube at TEDPodsFollow TED on X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok Hosted on Acast.

Episode 2146: Jenny Lee pushes back on the idea that a mindful life means never working hard. She shares how years of relentless side hustling, and then a serious health crisis and a long recovery, completely changed her relationship with work. Today she argues that big goals and real work-life balance can coexist, as long as the work does not bulldoze health, relationships, and the people who matter most. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.hellobrio.com/blog/hard-work Quotes to ponder: "We are not what we produce." "Even though our hard work does not define us, it's still okay to have big goals and to work hard. Just don't let those dreams bulldoze what really matters." "Mindfulness is an emotional minimalism: focus on what matters most to you and say no to the rest."

Motherhood can be messy, demanding and downright exhausting, especially when you're trying to balance family, work and everything else life throws your way. But here's the thing: moms are a whole lot tougher than we sometimes give ourselves credit for.In this episode of The Paige Kornblue Show, I sit down with ESPN play-by-play announcer Jenn Hildreth and FOX Sports Senior Vice President of Talent Relations Aimee Leone for an honest, funny and reassuring conversation inspired by their book, Tough as a Mother.Jenn and Aimee interviewed dozens of accomplished women—including Olympians, broadcasters, athletes, coaches and executives—and discovered that behind the medals, television cameras and impressive careers are many of the same struggles mothers everywhere know well: mom guilt, impossible schedules, missed moments, asking for help and wondering if we're doing enough.We talk about why we need to "mother out loud," embrace the messiness, let go of the Superwoman expectation and remember that two things can be true at once: we can love our careers and miss our children. We can be grateful and overwhelmed. We can be strong and still need help.This conversation is also a special full-circle moment for me. I interned for Aimee at NBC Sports when I was in college. All these years later, we reflect on what I didn't fully understand back then about the working mother I watched lead with strength, kindness and grace.From soccer legend and Olympian Alex Morgan on the impossible expectations placed on moms to ESPN broadcasters Elle Duncan and Laura Rutledge on letting go of mom guilt, this episode is filled with honest stories, perspective and reminders for those days when motherhood feels like a lot.Because being tough doesn't mean doing everything perfectly.Sometimes it simply means remembering: you've got this, and you're not alone.https://www.toughasamotherbook.com/abouthttps://www.paigekornblue.com/

Life-First Business Architecture: Reclaiming Freedom and Scaling Profitability with Jason WojoIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Jason Wojo, the CEO of Lifeonaire, to examine the severe personal and operational costs that emerge when founders allow business pursuits to override their quality of life. Jason, a veteran entrepreneur, host of The Lifeonaire Show, and author of Business for Life: Build a Profitable Business That Gives You Your Time, Freedom, and Life Back, details how high-achieving leaders frequently fall into the trap of constant hustle and founder burnout. This conversation delivers an intentional blueprint for business owners looking to establish non-negotiable personal boundaries, map their core business architecture, and systematically eliminate administrative friction to build a business that serves their life rather than consuming it.The Life-First Paradigm: Engineering Autonomous Operations and Eliminating Founder BurnoutThe fundamental error made by many scaling entrepreneurs is subscribing to the dangerous myth that sacrificing health, personal passions, and family relationships in the present will eventually yield freedom in some distant future. Jason Wojo explains that unmanaged business ambition acts as a seductive trap, drawing founders into endless operational firefighting while destroying their health and personal fulfillment. Real enterprise success requires an absolute reversal of this paradigm, starting with a life-first mindset where non-negotiable personal commitments—such as dedicated family time or creative hobbies—are scheduled first and treated with the same weight as high-stakes client meetings. Setting these boundaries forces leadership to construct operational guardrails, preventing work from expanding endlessly to fill available time and protecting the executive cognitive capacity required for high-level strategy.Transitioning a founder-dependent company into an autonomous asset demands a disciplined, three-part operational audit centered around business architecture mapping. Business owners must begin by creating a comprehensive visual map of every recurring task, workflow, and responsibility across the entire organization to uncover hidden bottlenecks and unnecessary founder involvement. Once these operational workflows are documented, leadership must systematically apply the "Eliminate, Automate, Delegate" framework—pruning non-essential tasks, utilizing modern software engines to automate repetitive processes, and transferring ownership to capable team members. Removing the founder from daily execution not only frees up valuable time but also strengthens the business's underlying infrastructure, making the enterprise far more resilient and attractive to future acquirers.Ultimately, designing a profitable business that grants true freedom is an ongoing architectural practice rather than a one-time event. Surrounding oneself with peer mastermind communities that prioritize work-life harmony helps leaders maintain accountability and resist the societal pressure to pursue growth for ego alone. By regularly auditing business architecture and protecting personal non-negotiables, executives model healthy operational boundaries for their teams, reducing labor turnover and fostering a sustainable corporate culture. When clear life-first priorities, streamlined operational mapping, and automated delegation systems are synthesized into a single business framework, founders successfully shed operational debt, reclaim their personal freedom, and predictably increase enterprise valuation.About Jason WojoJason Wojo is the CEO of Lifeonaire, host of The Lifeonaire Show, an international speaker, and an expert in life-first business design.

By standardizing internal corporate governance, establishing firm personal boundaries, and systematically delegating daily execution, business leaders can transform an exhausting job into a highly structured, self-sustaining asset.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Work-Life Balance in Marriage: When He Works Too MuchWork-life balance in marriage gets messy when ambition, provision, and feeling prioritized all collide. John and Echo get real about why women want quality time, but also need to respect a man who is building something meaningful.This episode digs into the difference between a man working hard on his mission and a man using work to avoid his relationship. They talk about ambition, provider pressure, date nights, follow-through, and why being available all the time can actually kill attraction if it means abandoning purpose.In This EpisodeWomen usually do not want either extreme: a man who is always gone or a man with no missionA man's work feels different when it has purpose, ambition, or real responsibility behind itWorking too much becomes a problem when it turns into avoidanceQuality time matters more than just being physically availableA wife needs to feel considered, respected, and prioritizedMen still have to follow through on commitments, even during intense work seasonsBeing kind does not mean being a pushoverHealthy relationships require honest conversations, compromise, and realistic expectationsTimestamps0:00 — Spending Time Versus Building A Mission3:00 — Why Neither Extreme Works6:20 — Startup Seasons And Dedicated Time Together9:26 — When Work Is Ambition Versus Avoidance12:28 — Sustainable Seasons And Date Night Agreements17:10 — Passion, Status, And What Justifies The Hours20:56 — Turning Humble Work Into A Bigger Mission24:44 — Compromise, Provision, And Realistic Expectations28:00 — Quality Time Matters More Than Quantity31:19 — Why Backing Off Work Doesn't Fix The Real Problem36:20 — Final Takeaways And Closing ThoughtsConnect

Do You Really Know, Bababam's daily podcast, helps you understand the true meaning behind the trends, concepts and acronyms that are making headlines. This week, we're looking back at 10 words and phrases that have been on everyone's lips in 2022. From the Uber Files leak to "shrinkflation" in stores or "quiet quitting" at work, refresh your memory on some of the events and phenomena that best sum up the year gone by. "Quiet quitting" has been getting a lot of attention of late. So many young people have been rejecting “hustle culture”, which puts work at the centre of a person's life and can lead to burnout. On this podcast, we've talked about a lot of factors affecting young workers and their mental health in recent times. It's pretty well established that the Covid pandemic was a game changer, in that flexible working models became the norm and everybody started reassessing their priorities in life.  Is that like slipping out the back door? Is quiet quitting a good thing? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

Looking for daily inspiration?  Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning. Caroline Schumacher is the President and CEO of Give Kids The World. After beginning as a College Program Cast Member at Walt Disney World, Caroline built a career spanning volunteer management, guest operations, fundraising, and executive leadership before leading the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation and recently returning to Give Kids The World. Her experience bridges hospitality, attractions, and nonprofit leadership, all centered on creating unforgettable experiences for families facing extraordinary challenges. In this interview, Caroline talks about inspiring hope, light, and joy, a first-class hospitality mindset, and work-life integration. Inspiring hope, light, and joy “This week really is just filled with light and joy for them, and they have all these amazing family memories built during this week.” Caroline explains that Give Kids The World exists to provide weeklong, cost-free vacations for children with critical illnesses and their families while partnering with wish-granting organizations throughout the world. Beyond offering accommodations and access to Central Florida attractions, the village creates an environment where families can temporarily set aside medical appointments, treatments, and uncertainty in favor of laughter, connection, and lasting memories. She also discusses how thoughtful language supports the organization's mission. Shifting from terms like "terminal illness" to "critical illness" better reflects the hope they want every family to experience. Whether through personalized experiences like King Micah's coronation or everyday interactions throughout the village, every detail is designed to replace fear with optimism and remind families that joy still has a place in their lives. First-class hospitality mindset “We never want our families to feel like they're getting charity.” Caroline believes exceptional hospitality comes from making every family feel genuinely valued rather than simply cared for. Inspired by the service standards at luxury resorts, her team focuses on personalization rather than expensive gestures. Every department, from housekeeping to engineering, understands its role in creating a seamless experience that feels intentional and uniquely tailored to each family. She emphasizes that outstanding hospitality begins with an authentic culture. Employees and volunteers must consistently live the organization's values because guests and volunteers quickly recognize whether those values are genuine. By creating meaningful experiences through thoughtful details, Give Kids The World delivers hospitality that rivals world-class resorts while offering something families cannot find anywhere else. Work-life integration “Balance is really unrealistic.” Caroline shares her philosophy that work-life integration is healthier than chasing perfect balance. She explains that different seasons of life naturally require different priorities, making the idea of equal balance unrealistic. Rather than separating work and personal life into competing categories, she encourages leaders to recognize how both can complement one another. She intentionally brings her family into her work by involving her children in volunteer opportunities and celebrating professional successes together. Likewise, she encourages leaders to acknowledge the sacrifices made by employees' families, recognizing that meaningful work often requires support from loved ones behind the scenes. This perspective creates stronger relationships at home while fostering healthier, more sustainable leadership.   Caroline can be reached on LinkedIn.

During the interview, Caroline also encourages visitors to connect with her on LinkedIn if they would like to learn more about the organization or arrange a visit to experience the village firsthand.

If your idea of a productive morning includes hiding whiskey in your shoes, arguing with Oprah, and learning more about kidney stones than any human ever wanted to know, congratulations—you've found today's daily comedy show.The gang kicks things off by reacting to Fireball's newest invention: high-top sneakers with hidden compartments designed to smuggle booze into concerts. Is it brilliant? Is it incredibly stupid? Can both be true? Absolutely. The conversation quickly spirals into stories about sneaking drinks into venues, golf-course bathroom etiquette, and why "shoe whiskey" should never become part of the English language.Then things take an unexpectedly painful turn as Bret Michaels undergoes emergency kidney stone surgery, which leads Moon to share some of the most unforgettable—and honestly horrifying—kidney stone stories ever told on this show. Hospital visits, tour disasters, screaming in public bathrooms... somehow everyone survives, but barely.Celebrity news brings plenty of chaos, too. Tommy Lee reveals one of Motley Crue's most unbelievable drug stories, Bon Jovi struggles through a concert after vocal issues, Korn's Jonathan Davis gets married, Johnny Depp surprises Comic-Con fans, and Jason Alexander makes headlines by apologizing for a decades-old comedy sketch. The crew also debates whether Johnny Depp will always be Captain Jack Sparrow, Edward Scissorhands, or something completely different depending on who you ask.Then Oprah enters the conversation with a comment that lights the fuse on one of the episode's biggest discussions. Should young people sacrifice everything to build a career, or should work-life balance begin immediately? Everyone has an opinion, nobody completely agrees, and somehow the debate turns into one of the most thoughtful conversations of the morning without losing the sarcasm that keeps everything fun.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without plenty of side quests. There are discussions about Olive Garden Pasta Pass failures, Hollywood Walk of Fame stars, celebrity birthdays, awkward David Letterman moments, the Kardashians, concert ticket disasters, and enough random tangents to make your GPS give up entirely.Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, weird news, hilarious fails, pop culture commentary, or simply because you enjoy hearing a group of friends derail every conversation imaginable, today's daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of organized chaos you've come to expect.Thanks for making us part of your day. If you laughed, learned something completely unnecessary, or now have an irrational fear of kidney stones, we'd call that a successful episode.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Dr Jesse Green sits down with psychologist turned entrepreneur Ali Hill, co-founder of Pragmatic Thinking and host of the Stand Out Life podcast. Ali unpacks the difference between the obligations that come with your position as a business owner and the ones you have simply inherited from social programming or people pleasing, and why untangling the two is the real key to protecting your time. She also shares how she and her husband have engineered their own business around school terms and family priorities, and the honest conversations it takes to hold a boundary once you have set it. The conversation moves through grit, resilience and the point of diminishing returns, before landing on practical, minimum viable ways to protect wellbeing without adding another task to an already full day. If you are a dental practice owner trying to work out where your practice ends and your life begins, you won't want to miss this episode.

On a topic dads argue about constantly, we found near-total agreement.  In this Dads Agree episode we play four takes from past Front Row Dads guests who — without ever comparing notes — all landed in the same place: work-life balance is a myth.  Chris Ducker calls it a myth outright.  Tucker Max says balance is "bullsh*t" because work is part of life. Dave Allred argues "the price of greatness is imbalance."  And Eric Wohlwend offers the fix: "quit trying to balance and start to integrate."  The word they all reach for instead of balance? Integration.   IN THIS EPISODE: • Chris Ducker — why "balance" is a myth • Tucker Max — work is part of life; integrate, don't balance • Dave Allred — "the price of greatness is imbalance" (greatness comes in seasons) • Eric Wohlwend — the fix: integrate, and "be where you are, 100%"   THE CLIPS IN THIS EPISODE COME FROM THESE ORIGINAL CONVERSATIONS: • Chris Ducker — episode 60: https://frontrowdads.com/60 • Tucker Max — episode 115: https://frontrowdads.com/115 • Dave Allred — episode 401: https://frontrowdads.com/401 • Eric Wohlwend — episode 374: https://frontrowdads.com/374   Where do you land on work-life balance?

What if the goal was never balance, but harmony?In this episode, Carly and Joe sit down with Dan Scott, founder of Spotlight Advisory Group, a former big-firm lawyer who walked away from the traditional career path to help creatives and entrepreneurs build lives around purpose instead of paychecks.Dan breaks down why "work-life balance" is the wrong goal, how financial freedom means having enough money (not the most money), and the planning mistakes that keep talented creatives broke. He also gets real about the sacrifices of entrepreneurship, why ownership beats a paycheck every time, and what Taylor Swift's catalog buyback can teach every solopreneur about building wealth.In this episode:Balance vs. harmony, and why the difference changes everythingThe moment fatherhood (and a divorce) pushed Dan to bet on himselfFinancial freedom redefined: enough money to live your purposeWhy "making it" as a creative doesn't require going viralThe #1 money mistake creatives make (aspirational spending)Why ownership, not income, builds real wealthMoney is a tool, not a goal: escaping the financial hamster wheelDan's favorite success quotes, from Steve Jobs to his ownConnect with Dan Scott: Website: spotlightadvisorygroup.com Email: info@spotlightadvisorygroup.com Instagram: @DanScottSpotlightEnjoying the show?

Can you build a successful career and still create a life that feels truly fulfilling? In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Wendy Meadows, attorney, life coach, and author, about redefining success without walking away from the career you love.

After discovering health and wellness coaching, she found a path that complemented her legal career and helped her reconnect with herself. Today, Wendy continues to practice law while empowering others through coaching and her book, "sparkle & GRIT", showing that fulfillment comes from nurturing every aspect of your life, not just your career.   ABOUT: WENDY S MEADOWS LinkedIn – Wendy MeadowsWebsite – Wendy MeadowsBook – "sparkle & Grit: Live a Technicolor Life by Finally Finding Balance, Escaping Monotony, and Beating Burnout"  ABOUT SWEET BUT FEARLESS: Website - Sweet but Fearless LinkedIn - Sweet but Fearless

Modupe sits down with Molly at TED2026 to talk about her journey from Facebook to giving her first TED Talk to now joining TED as a podcaster. Molly shares how she quietens her inner critic whom she affectionately calls “Bob the Monster,” what she learned from working alongside influential leaders to scale companies, and why she always advises managers to “give away their Legos.”For the full text transcript, visit https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife-transcripts Hosted on Acast.
