I’ve had a few conversations around work life balance this past week with some close friends. In a world where value as a human is often conflated with your level of production, it’s easy to get stuck in a vicious cycle where you deprioritize self care and rest.
I’ve definitely been guilty of this, especially when I’m excited about what I’m working on. Routine and deeply setting healthy habits are two powerful ways to beat burn out and keep balance, as well as learning the power of saying No to people and projects that are not actually important!
