    What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?Women's happiness has been in decline since the 1970's despite increased freedoms and opportunities, says Dr Giselle Goodwin. I've you've ever felt burnout out and the sense that you're somehow failing at being a woman and a mother you'll have a sense of it happening, but you may feel guilty, particularly given the opportunities we've been given compared with what our own mothers had. She says that when women were told we could have it all, it seems what we really heard was we must do it all. It's been dubbed The Female Paradox and in this episode Dr Goodwin shares her personal struggles balancing career and motherhood. She talks us through how societal expectations haven't really changed, even while women are expected to go out to work, resulting in what's been dubbed the "second shift" of domestic responsibilities. We also explore the Paula Principle, where women often take jobs below their skill level for flexibility to fit in with home life, contrasting it with the Peter Principle where men are promoted above their competence. In spite of the problems, Giselle emphasizes it's vital for women to be in high-level roles for societal representation and equity and the real work needs to be done in discussions about how we divide up the mental and physical labour of or lives.She advises young people to view their careers as a portfolio, adapting to life's seasons, and encourages midlife reassessment.Dr Giselle Goodwin: https://gisellegoodwin.com/BOOK: Can Women Really Have it All?: A Happiness Handbook for Working Mothers Research shows that working mothers experience up to 40% more stress and that women's happiness has been declining since the 1970s. How do we fix this? Backed by compelling research and packed with actionable suggestions, this groundbreaking book answers the burning questions of working mothers today:Why do so many mothers feel chronically guilty?What actions can women take to improve their own happiness?What changes do we need from society to improve women's lives?Does working outside the home make mothers happier?Is part-time work the answer, or does it bring its own problems?What advice should we give to our children?Support the showThank you so much for your support.

    In the age of social media and short-form content, many people insist that our attention spans are getting shorter.

In this episode, Adam and Daniel dive into evidence that what's changing is not our attention spans, but the objects of our focus. They also discuss moral panics of the past, compare the cognitive benefits of video games and the opera, and debate whether or not Marvel movies are a waste of time.FollowHost: Adam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: adamgrant.net/) Guest: Daniel Immerwahr (Website: history.northwestern.edu/people/faculty/core-faculty/daniel-immerwahr.html) LinksHow to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United StatesSubscribe to TED Instagram: @tedYouTube: @TEDTikTok: @tedtoksLinkedIn: @ted-conferencesWebsite: ted.comPodcasts: ted.com/podcastsFor the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcriptsFor a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

    Send us a text“I feel torn between my job and my family every day.” “Guilt eats at me when I miss school events or family time.” “Even when I'm home, I'm not truly present.” — Sometimes, it feels like a work-life balance as a parent who's working a full-time job is out of reach. It feels as if you're trying to provide for your children, to give them a great life, and in turn you have to sacrifice family time. If that's you, don't worry. It isn't too late, that balance isn't out of reach. Today, Tonya teaches us, through the story of the Martin family, how we can stop compromising, and instead have time for our careers and our families. It's going to take time, effort, and it won't all be sunshine and rainbows. There will be times when it's difficult and you're still torn, but there will be a point where it all falls in place, and the balance you find will be all you hoped for. Listen in today for infinitely valuable advice, an inspiring story, and motivation to take the first step to a balanced home life.

    In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the pleasure of speaking with Katie Keller Wood, Montessori educator, TEDx speaker, and author of the upcoming book Alignment: A Montessori Approach to Reimagining Work-Life Balance. We challenge the myth of work-life balance and instead explore the powerful metaphor of a life mosaic—how different aspects of our life can align without rigid separation. Katie shares how purpose-driven work, often viewed with guilt or skepticism, can actually be a vital source of personal meaning and fulfillment. She draws from Montessori principles in order to emphasize the importance of not losing oneself in their meaningful work, but instead cultivate awareness, alignment, and joy in all areas of life. This episode is for anyone wanting to do their purpose work and create a meaningful life without burning out.   Dr. Katie Keller Wood grew up in the world of education, and delights in helping people find new ways of thinking about the world. Discovering Montessori education, both as a pedagogy and a philosophy, was pivotal for her, and she is on a mission to bring a Montessori perspective of work to everyone.    Katie has had the great honor of working with hundreds of middle and high school Montessori teachers from all over the world through the training program she runs, called CMStep. She is recognized as a leader in Montessori programming for adolescents and adults. Any given semester might find Katie teaching undergraduates at the University of Virginia, where she earned both her bachelor's and her doctorate degrees, master's students at Xavier University, or doctoral students at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. She is active in the Montessori research and teacher education communities.    Katie does her work because she believes that a more peaceful, just, equitable, and sustainable world is possible, and that it takes all of us leading our aligned lives to bring this world forward. Katie lives in Richmond, Virginia, and is a TEDx and keynote speaker and a sought-after presenter for workshops and conferences. Alignment: A Montessori Approach to Reimagining Work-Life Balance is her first book.     Guest's Contact – Linedin Website Book Contact Jeffrey – JeffreyShaw.com Books by Jeffrey Shaw Business Coaching for Entrepreneurs Watch my TEDx LincolnSquare video and please share!

Discover practical tips on setting boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and building authentic relationships that support both personal and professional growth. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that redefines balance on your own terms.Courtney attended UNC-Charlotte and Peace College which led her to spend a decade in the education field. Although she's a Cabarrus County native – and Concord will always have a piece of her heart – after visiting Bermuda Run with a college friend Courtney admits she fell in love with Davie County. She knew this where she wanted to settle and quickly made Advance home in 2003. Though Courtney loved educating children, the desire for more flexibility for her own family and the excitement to dive into entrepreneurship led her to real estate. Now Courtney shares her love of education by volunteering at local schools and joining educational organizations while passionately fulfilling her real estate dreams.Before joining the Hillsdale team, Courtney first landed at a national brokerage. She earned the coveted ‘Rookie of the Year' award from WSRAR during her first year in real estate. Courtney's family keeps her on her toes and on the go! Courtney has 4 children—Ivy, Harper, Campbell and the littlest—and last— baby Ridge. Courtney also dotes on her adult stepdaughter, Roxy, partner Joseph, and her biggest lifetime supporter, Grannie Annie (mom)! She also loves Wolfpack football, entertaining, and keeping up with golf! When she isn't busy with school activities, Courtney loves to hit the road, spending long weekends at her family's beach home or catching a flight or cruise to explore a new destination! Courtney is a girl on the go! And when she goes, there's nothing she loves more than scouting out a small, local coffee shop along the way. She runs on ‘car-ffeine' (caffeine in the car, of course) and Jesus.Social Media Links: Instagram- @closedwithcourtneyFacebook- https://www.facebook.com/CourtneyRandlemanRealEstate

    Laura Cowan started her career in finance, earning a CPA and working at Ernst & Young and Goldman Sachs. When she decided to go to law school at 35, she knew that she wanted to launch a boutique firm with a practice area that complemented that financial background. Estate law seemed a good fit—but fate threw her a curve ball just as she launched her firm.“I had to turn my entire practice virtual overnight in 2020 in New York City because of COVID,” Cowan tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of the Modern Law Library. “I moved to Rhode Island to shelter in place with my dad. During that couple of months that I was sheltering in place, I still had to get my law firm running. I had a business to run and bills to pay. So I made everything virtual, and I really streamlined everything. And what I found was that I could make pretty easily $10,000 a month, working just a couple of hours a day.” She has now leveraged the experience of launching an all-virtual estate-planning practice into a coaching program, 2-Hour Lifestyle Lawyer, to help other lawyers launch similar practices. Her new book, Lifestyle Lawyer Revolution: Live a Life You Love (Without Leaving the Law), is full of tips and advice for building a personalized practice to provide work-life balance for attorneys. “Now, what we found is that there's a lot of lawyers who are happy working a lot more than that and are happy earning a lot more, but the name of the business really comes from just this idea that you can still be a really great attorney without working 10 hours a day, and you can make a nice living without working 10 hours a day,” says Cowan. A key part of not working too many hours is to hire appropriate assistance, even as a solo just starting out, says Cowan. “What I see a lot of is lawyers that spend too much time in the weeds of executing and doing all these different things that an admin could be doing, and not spending enough time doing what the lawyer should be focusing on,” says Cowan. “So they're both working too much and not making enough money, which is the worst possible combination.” Cowan encourages estate attorneys to hold community workshops to help people understand the importance of wills and trusts. She says it's an excellent way to establish connections that can lead to further business. “The real reason that people hire us is because of the connection,” Cowan tells Rawles. “And I firmly believe this. People don't hire you because you're the best drafter in the world. They hire you because of the way that you make them feel. So use AI and technology behind the scenes to help you get your work done and deliver a really great client experience, but never forget that it's going to be that that makes them hire you.” In this episode, Cowan also discusses the benefits of value-based pricing versus the billable hour; attracting the client base you want to target; and how to deal with your biggest frenemy: technology.

    Summer offers many of us a rare gift—time to step back, slow down, and find balance. Work is important, but so is rest. These longer days are a chance to be present—to share a meal with family, laugh with friends, play with your children, and simply enjoy the gift of those around you. Use this season to renew not just your body, but your spirit. Go for a walk. Exercise. Relax. Spend time outdoors. Enjoy the beauty of creation. And most importantly—pray. Even a few quiet minutes with God each day can restore your peace and purpose. God calls us not only to work, but to live fully. Take time this summer to rest, and be renewed in His love.
