The Work-Life Balance Trap: Why Chasing It Holds You Back

Game Changers with Molly Fletcher

What’s the secret to work-life balance? I get asked this question all the time and here’s what I’ve come to realize: we’re asking the wrong question because balance isn’t the answer. In this episode, I tackle the exhausting myth of balance that so many of us chase, only to find ourselves feeling overwhelmed and guilty. I share my personal journey of realizing that what we truly crave isn’t balance but alignment—an intentional process that prioritizes what matters most to us, not what others expect of us. By reflecting on my own struggles and breakthroughs, I encourage you to consider how to move your potential in the right direction, embrace the inherent imbalance of pursuing your goals, and ultimately live a more fulfilling life.
