Work-Life Balance: Strategies for Busy Professionals
Work-life balance practical tips for being happier at home and work
Getting your work-life balance right might just be the most important thing you do. Why? Because without it, life becomes a long list of meetings, emails, and stress… and before you know it, the things that actually make you happy—family, hobbies, sleep!—get pushed to the side.
Work will always expand to fill the time you give it. Like weeds in your garden, it sneaks in and takes over unless you actively keep it in check. And that’s what this course is all about: taking back control.
In this course, I’ll walk you through a whole load of practical strategies to help you get the most out of your job and your personal life—without burning out in the process. We’ll cover how to set boundaries, how to stop work from leaking into your evenings, and how to enjoy both sides of your life more fully.
You might be wondering:
Is it worth changing jobs at this stage in your career?
Should you really be working so hard?
Is your boss helping—or secretly sabotaging—your balance?
We’ll talk about all that, and more.
I’ve spent 25 years teaching people how to manage time, reduce stress, and feel happier—and I’ve worked in enough roles myself (engineer, manager, lecturer, self-employed) to know what it’s like out there. So everything I share is based on real experience, not theory.
By the end of this course, you’ll have a toolkit of simple, proven tactics that help you spend less time at work, feel less stressed, and get more enjoyment from both work and home.
It’s not about quitting your job or moving to a log cabin in the woods. It’s about small, smart changes that make a big difference.
So, if you’re ready to make life a bit less frantic and a lot more enjoyable, I’ll see you inside the course.

Yes, this was a great course. Work gets busy and it's easy to forget how important it is to have a work life balance, especially when there is work creep from turnover. Management tends to expect you do your work plus all the work of the team member who left. There has to be boundaries because soon you find yourself staying late in the evening and working on weekends to keep up.
