Our lives have become so busy that we are living in a constant state of go, go, go. What did you do last Thursday? What about two weeks ago Monday?

Every day, the world seemingly invents new challenges for us in the form of new situations, new energetic exchanges, and new lessons. That also means that each day ends up screaming at us - in its own unique way - with the demand to keep up.

After a while, all that action and tension can certainly start to get to you.

In today's workplace, the traditional boundaries between "work" and "personal" are neither realistic nor relevant.

In How We Work, Dr. Leah Weiss explains why this false dichotomy can be destructive.
