Work-Life Balance Doesn't Exist; Strive for Lifework Integration, Instead EP 75

We've all heard of work-life balance, and it's the thing we are supposedly longing to attain. But given how one's typical day actually unfolds, is that even possible? And if it was, is it something we actually desire? 

Listen in as host, Laura, dives into a different way of thinking with guest, Keith Campagna, who is on a mission to introduce the idea of Lifework Integration to others.

"It's the free-flowing exchange of ideas and energy between life and work," he explains. Through his personal journey – from an often on-the-road sales guy, husband, and father of two boys, Keith found himself in a nearly 180° changed situation! His wife left him, he took on a new job that allowed him to be home with his boys and pay his bills… and found himself immersed in a deep examination of his life, work, and dreams. 

With a background in music, he applied a basic truth about stress and creation to his study of how life, work, satisfaction, and creativity all come together. He explains that musical instruments have to be put under a certain degree of stress in order to actually produce the music that moves us. 

The same principal can be at work in our lives, and in fact is more likely to produce a life we are actively engaged in, finding fulfillment, and feeling creatively alive. It doesn't just happen, however; there's a process involved, and Keith has the tools to help others through it. 

Listen in as Keith and Laura explore life, work, creativity, the idea that COVID is an opportunity reframe everything, the concept of money as energy, what it means to be 'in flow,' and why we proclaim "Here there be dragons…" when we reach of point of turning back.
