Listen "When Loving Work Goes Too Far"

Episode Synopsis

I love to work.  I love to jump out of bed, get ready for work, and go to work. I spend all day working and come home, and then after dinner, I like to work some more.  Working brings energy to me, and working brings satisfaction.  I love to work because I love to see things get accomplished.  I love checking things off my list.  There's a danger in loving work.  It's so easy to get caught up in my work that I don't realize that I'm hurting those around me by working so much.  There was a time in my life when my job required me to work 60 hours a week—even time on Sunday.  Jim and I had to work through balancing my work life and family life.  I love to work, but I also don't want to sacrifice everything I love because I love to work.
