Creating Work Life Boundaries

#010 - There's nothing wrong with wanting or needing to work a lot.. until it starts putting a strain on our wellbeing or our most important relationships. Creating work-life boundaries becomes a bit more complicated when we work from home and/or around our families, but the rewards of drawing some lines in the sand are worth it.

To that end, here's what I have for you in today's episode:

• A couple signs that you might want or need to implement a work-life boundary
• 4 work-life boundary techniques to try that I've found especially effective in various stages of life and career
• 3 steps to creating reciprocal boundaries to protect both your work time and your quality time with others when you need their cooperation to focus

This episode is designed to give you practical strategies and quick wins when it comes to helping our personal and professional lives co-exist in a meaningful way, and I truly hope you find them as helpful as I have!
