NARJ141: Finding Balance

Standard

Quotes

  • “I don’t want it to be 90 degrees anywhere. That’s too many degrees, everyone knows.”
  • “I balance it by not balancing it and just constantly overworking and burning myself out.”
  • “If it’s something you’re not doing but it’s bothering you, is it possible you just shouldn’t worry about doing it?”
