Rebalancing

Rebalancing

There are certain things in life that don’t have to get done, and then there are priorities that absolutely must get done well. On today’s show we discuss what it takes to thrive on purpose, and specifically we’re discussing the importance of flexibility.

Today I speak with author and social impact leader Wendy Teleki. Wendy argues that we shouldn’t be afraid to recalibrate and make the big changes when we need to. In our conversation today Wendy distills her hard-earned lessons on balancing – and rebalancing – amid an onslaught of ever-changing demands and priorities.
