Work life balance is a lie, it doesn’t exist.

We are all going from one aspect of our lives to the other, trying to keep everything afloat, but what of we reframed it as work life harmony?

This outlook on leadership and wellbeing is championed by my guest in this episode, Andre Young. He is the founder of You Evolving Now, author and leadership trainer helping create better work culture, and improved interactions between leaders and employees.

Andre shares his perspective on what work life harmony is and the importance of setting priorities and boundaries. Andre shares his own experiences with trying to maintain this harmony with 4 kids, his wife, friends and 2 businesses.

There is so much we are told about what our work life balance should look like, let’s get to the truth about what we are all going through.

“Once you know who you are, once you know who your people are, you don’t have to take things personal anymore” - Andre
