There is no reason to sacrifice one part of your life for another! Life is not a zero-sum game and it shouldn’t make you feel like you can’t “have it all”—because you definitely can. This session is for folks who want to explore options, discuss the paths they have taken to achieve harmony, or learn how to influence their companies and communities to prioritize whole people development.
As the Community Manager for Zebras Unite, which is dedicated to a holistic, sustainable approach to business, the founder and CEO of a benefit corporation that develops high-end storytelling materials for social impact companies, a single mom to a very active 3-year-old daughter, and a community activist, I feel that I have a pretty unique take on “having it all” and what it really takes to support (and be supported by) people hoping to achieve work/life harmony. It’s more than “possible”—it’s going to be a key feature in the very foundation of the future. I’ve coached and trained people in professional settings on this, and I’ve talked it out in casual settings, and there’s no question that this will be valuable to folks in the startup world.
