I don't have work/life balance.
I never have, come to think of it.
I have working rhythm. It's more like a work/life 𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝. As a business owner my work and life ebb and flow into each other to help me deliver for my clients.
I aim to make the time to be well fed, well rested, to keep moving and keep musing, all the while progressing my important goals.
For me, the key to sustaining my working rhythm is to understand my energy. How do I work best, when do I work best, on what projects do I work best and with whom do I work best.
Knowing the answers to these questions helps me keep my energy tank full, and my working rhythm in full form. Thanks Shar Moore for the interview on the Thinking Woman's podcast to help bring this thinking to light.
P.S. In the video snippet I share a confession! I explain why sometimes I have a line down my face when I turn up to meetings, AND why it's important that I do and why you should too! ;)
