Is Work/Life Balance Still a Thing?
We still talk about “work–life balance,” but let’s be honest—does that phrase even fit reality anymore?
In this episode, Paul and Matt reframe balance not as fewer hours or rigid boundaries, but as something far more practical: managing attention, being present in the right places, and nurturing your relationships with others, your work, and yourself.
Five Key Learnings:
- “Balance” isn’t about time—it’s about presence.
- Work is uniquely sticky; without boundaries, it seeps into everything.
- Real balance depends on managing three relationships: with others, work, and self.
- Gen Z may be reacting differently, but they’re facing the same forces.
- “Work less” isn’t always possible—but changing how you show up is.
