Striking a balance: the work/life conundrum

Achieving work-life balance involves flexible work policies and self-management strategies to reduce stress and enhance satisfaction. It's not about a 50/50 split but feeling fulfilled in both your professional and personal lives. While company policies may be out of our immediate control, we can take personal actions to improve our overall satisfaction. Andy Romero-Birkbeck, Health Coach at We Are Wellbeing discusses actionable steps for achieving better balance.

Hosted by Heather Waugh, Freightliner.
