Exploring what we mean by work life balance and considering if there might be a better way.

Cindy Koehler is a transformational business and life coach, and founder of Mind Garage.

In this episode of the Abeceder work life balance podcast Rest and Recreation Cindy explains to host Michael Millward that we are wrong to view success in life as the achievement of a good work life balance.

Instead, Cindy proposes that we should aim to live a life in which our work activities and our non-work activities are aligned.

Cindy and Michael discuss how

• Many people work to pay their bills with a hope of eventually living a long and happy retirement.
• Work should instead think about how work enables people to live their best lives in the present.
• Forced unemployment is when people explore what they want out of life
• We define and find happiness in work and life
• We define the value we derive from work
• Asking better questionscan improve how we enjoy life

This conversation will made you reconsider your own relationship between work and life.
