150: The myth of work-life balance

Show Notes

What does work-life balance mean to you? How will you know if you’re there? Does it have to be a 50/50 split to achieve that balance?

In this episode, Tiffany explores the concept of balancing work and life in relation to your goals. Different seasons demand different choices and there are consequences to those choices. But you can find peace in the end result. She gives personal examples of how her past choices have helped her to set the stage for this Life of And she lives right now.

She also shares a recent challenge she took on for her personal growth. She left fear behind with one big plunge! (hint) It’s a cool story…take a listen!

What is Life of And?

The Life of And podcast is for high-achieving women and working parents who are ready to stop living a life of “have to” and start designing a life they actually want. It’s a space where we talk honestly about the things we’re often afraid to admit — even to ourselves. The exhaustion. The ambition. The loneliness. The joy. The tension of wanting more without losing yourself in the process.

If you’re in the thick of it — feeling stretched, tired, hopeful, driven — this is your invitation to take a breath, get real, and find your way back to your own Life of And.
