Take a mindful lens to the question of work-life balance.

Let's start with the idea that you are a human (first), and that work is one venue (place) where you do life.

Then, consider three frames:

1. Balance as an active relationship between dynamic forces (like breathing)
2. Balance like cross-training for function (not every day is leg day)
3. Ask: What part of this is personal vs cultural?

Consider your current life stage, season, and circumstances.

Just because it doesn't look the same, doesn't mean it's there.
