Work-Life Balance: How To Switch Off From An ‘Always On’ Culture

The Digital Diet

In this episode, I talk about:

• Why work-life balance is important, even if you love your job
• How failing to take holidays and regular breaks could literally be costing you your life
• Why prevention is better than cure when it comes to burnout
• How technology enables remote working but blurs the line between your work and personal space, causing you to work more than ever before
• The convenience and the curse of communications platforms like email, WhatsApp, Teams, and Slack
• How country laws, company culture, and the behaviour of your managers and peers is influencing your personal beliefs about work-life balance
• The subconscious message you send when you don’t prioritise your personal time
• Right to Disconnect laws and what they mean for you and your work
• The rise of the 4 day work week and other company policies to promote work-life balance and help employees switch off
• The importance of holding yourself accountable for maintaining work-life balance and protecting your wellbeing
• How to use technology in a way that optimises your working time and creates boundaries between your work and personal life, so that you can disconnect outside of working hours
