“Where are you spending your time? Where do you want to spend your time? What's the level of satisfaction you want to achieve in your life? Setting boundaries will get you there.”

In this episode, host Kate Volman is joined by Senior Executive Coach at Floyd Consulting, Michele Marquis, to share 5 ways to master your boundaries for a fulfilling work-life balance.

Michele peels back the layers on internal barriers, endearingly referred to as 'gremlins,' which often prevent us from achieving the life we truly desire, the elusive blend of personal and professional life, the art of intentional living, and the necessity of establishing systems for continuous progress.
