Sincerely Speaking with Marcy Amaro

The Balanced Life Trap -- The Bicycle and the Compass

Episode Summary

Do you remember learning to ride a bike? Why is riding a bike such a challenging thing to learn? Well, for one thing, it requires balance. WIthout balance you will not move forward, in fact, you will likely fall over. The thing about riding a bike, though, is that when you really stop to think about it, you’re never REALLY balanced. Same thing happens in life! We have been sold this idea that in order to be truly fulfilled and successful we need to find work-life balance. We’re told that we can have it all if we simply figure out how to maintain this perfect state of equilibrium between our work and our personal life. So, on we go on this quest for the perfect balance between what we do and who we are. Unfortunately, what most of us find is guilt, shame, stress, and anxiety. So, is all hope lost? Is it possible, or even desirable, to achieve a state of balance? Is the stress, guilt, and overwhelm the only other option? We tackle these and other work-life balance questions on this episode of Sincerely Speaking.
