In this episode, I've pulled together some insights from guests on 'work-life balance' - what is work-life balance, how do you know you have it, does it exist and more.  

I introduce the episode with an overview of 'body-budgeting' - a phrase coined by neuroscientist and psychologist Lisa Feldman Barrett.  She is the author of 'How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of The Brain'.  

This episode includes:

John Hayns (#14) on attuning to your body and work-life magic

Kim Bowden (#17) on a work-life balance 'aha' moment

Gary Cox (#4 & #5) on the need for a time machine and more sleep

Andrew Codd (#8) on is there any such thing as work-life balance

Helen Joy (#6) on boundaries

Jerry Harris (#9) on appropriate selfishness (my new favourite phrase!)

Michelle Heer (#3) on her daughter's approach to her work-life balance

Dave Greenaway (#2) on being able to say 'no'

Sue Rosen (#1) on finding joy

Steve Haines (#10) on the power of movement - internal as well as external

What does work-life balance mean to you? 

If you have a favourite strategy you'd like to share I would love to know.
