Ever felt like you're juggling too many roles and not doing justice to any of them? In this episode of The Well-Tended Life, host Keri Wilt sits down with Christina Wallace to dismantle the myth of work-life balance. Christina, a self-proclaimed 'human Venn diagram', shares her unique approach to life that intersects business, technology, and the arts. Instead of feeling pressured to fit into one box, she advocates for embracing multiple passions and creating a 'portfolio life'.
Christina dives into the importance of knowing 'who you are' separate from 'what you do'. This distinction is crucial for maintaining your sense of self, especially when career changes or challenges arise. She offers practical advice on how to manage time effectively and highlights the necessity of rest, pointing out that even the best-run manufacturing lines operate at 85% capacity.
One of the key takeaways from this episode is the idea that multitasking was never meant for humans—it's a term borrowed from computer science. Christina encourages listeners to stop over-promising their time and start focusing on what truly matters. She believes that change is inevitable, but how we respond to it is what defines us. Will you pursue change or wait for it to happen to you?
Throughout the conversation, Christina provides valuable insights on how to cultivate a balanced and purposeful life by diversifying across personal, professional, and financial domains. Her wisdom on intentional living is both inspiring and practical, offering listeners a roadmap to find joy and growth in every aspect of their lives. Tune in to discover how you can start living a well-tended and fulfilling existence.
