Episode Synopsis

“There's no such thing as balance. There’s juggling, there's adaptability, and there's choice. We wear a variety of shoes throughout the day: the parent, the spouse, the employee: I don't think there is a place of perfect work-life balance. Instead, we need to admit that both family and work fulfill us in their own, different ways.”In this episode, business and executive coach Stacie Riffert joins Pros&Babes founder and CEO Kinia Romanowska to explain why work-life balance is a myth, the mindsets shifts that help us tackle career burnout and how we can lead ourselves and inspire others at home and in the workplace. Listen in for insights on how to manufacture more time, tackle burnout and up your game as the CEO of your life. Stacie Riffert is a business and executive coach who believes that you can be both a successful leader and have the time to show up for the people and things that matter most in your life.
