We welcome Krishna Lynch a Healthcare Consultant who graduated with a Master of Jurisprudence in Health Law from Loyola University Chicago School of Law. She vehemently challenges the notion of work-life balance.

Work Life Balance … Really?  I hear much talk about the need for “work life balance.” 

Is “work life balance” even a realistic goal?   Or do you find it to be elusive?

Does it really represent the “new normal” of today given our preoccupation with busyness, multi-role/multi-tasking, technology and social media, just to name a few?

My Take:

The look and feel of balance is different for each person.  For me, my perspective has shifted.  I no longer seek balance, but rather fulfillment, engagement/socialization, and energy management.

I choose not to become overwhelmed with attaining “balance” or contemplating whether I truly have enough balance in my life.  Instead, I prefer to think about what gives me fulfillment; what am I most passionate about; and how to stay energized to manage the demands of daily life.  I strive to approach each day with this mindset.

So, any given day/week of mine may focus on one, two, three, or all of the following:   family, work, rest, friends, socializing, or fitness.

For this will allow me to be an inspiration to others.

So again I ask, is there really such a thing as “work life balance?” What do you think?
