Welcome to another episode of LIFE WORK BALANCES! This months episode features an interview that I did with Robert Brown, who works at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Rob and I met while we were serving as faculty members for the Social Justice Training Institute Student Experience, and this was a great chance to catch up with him, hear more about his story, and  get his take on how balance has been a part of his experiences throughout his life.

Welcome to another episode of Life Work Balances, the podcast for and by student affairs professionals about the dynamic nature of balance. It has been a while since an episode has gone up, because I was finding my own sense of balance, but now the podcast is back. New episodes will be posted on the first Wednesday of each month.

This months episode features another great conversation with Nick Franco. Nick has been a guest on the podcast twice before, and it was really fantastic (as all conversations with Nick are) to reconnect and talk about what has been going on for the last year and a half. We talked about tennis, health, moving, roommates, job searching, allyship, and a whole lot more.

Welcome to another episode of LIFE WORK BALANCES.

Today I got to catch up with Alfred Day, who was on the podcast a little over a year ago. In that time Al has taken on a new role as a Care Manager at UC Berkeley, moved, and had a whole lot change for him. We had a great time talking about how Al’s life has been different, new things he has learned about himself, and the new ways he has thought about balance. We also go off on a tangent about student staff training and role modeling that I found to be really energizing and inspiring.
