About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today I'm excited to have Dr. Jane Smith with us. She's an expert in work-life balance and the instructor of the new course, "Executive Certificate in Finding Balance and Purpose." Welcome, Jane! GUEST: Thanks for having me! I'm looking forward to our conversation. HOST: Let's dive right in. Can you share a bit about your personal experiences that led you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely. I've worked with many high-achieving professionals who felt overwhelmed and unfulfilled despite their success. I wanted to create a program that teaches mindfulness, stress management, and leadership skills to help them find balance and purpose. HOST: That's fascinating. With the rise of remote work and digital nomads, what current industry trends do you think are most relevant to your course? GUEST: Great question. The boundaries between work and personal life have blurred, making work-life integration even more critical. Also, with increased screen time, learning mindfulness techniques to manage stress and maintain focus is essential. HOST: Indeed. Can you share some challenges you've faced teaching this subject or any obstacles your students have encountered? GUEST: One common challenge is helping students understand that balance doesn't mean equal time spent on work and personal life. It's about prioritizing and finding harmony. Another challenge is helping them develop a regular mindfulness practice, but with consistent effort, they see positive results. HOST: I can imagine that could be tough. Lastly, how do you envision the future of work-life balance and its impact on professionals? GUEST: I believe that work-life balance will become increasingly important as technology advances and work demands change. Employers will need to prioritize employee wellbeing and provide resources for work-life integration, leading to more productive and fulfilled employees. HOST: It's been a pleasure having you, Dr. Smith. I'm sure our audience has gained valuable insights from your expertise.
