To what extent does your choice of “work” impact your sense of balance?
How – and why – is it that two people engaged in the same occupation, can find themselves experiencing a totally different sense of balance between their work and other things in their life?
Do certain occupations or industries lend themselves to a more balanced lifestyle than others?
Delving into the reasons behind the values that individuals place on their work can help make sense of work-life balance choices. Through the blog and podcast, A Fine Balance has covered the work-life balance stories of people from many professional backgrounds, and of those who are not in paid employment. And it has become evident that understanding others’ choices and work:life ratios and experiences, can help make sense of one’s own.
Below are some the occupations that have been covered so far. If you have others to add, or want to share your personal alternative take on a category listed, please reach out in the usual ways to join the conversation.
