Shownotes

In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m wrapping up my special mini-series on the four essential priorities for creating real, lasting work-life balance. We’re talking about the final one - uninterrupted work time and why it’s the secret weapon that keeps you from working nights and weekends, feeling constantly behind, and sacrificing your personal life for your job. I’m sharing how to protect it, why it matters, and the mindset shifts you’ll need to finally feel calm, in control, and satisfied with your work—without giving up your ambition.

Topics in this episode:

  • The fourth essential priority for work-life balance: uninterrupted work time 
  • Why mid-career managers feel constantly behind and how to stop it 
  • The illusion of “flexible” work hours and why it’s hurting you 
  • Three steps to protecting your work time: clarity, confidence, control 
  • Tools, strategies, and real-life examples to help you follow through
