Sustainable Ambition
How do you navigate the inevitable conflicts between work and life? Not just the daily schedules or mounting responsibilities, but the tensions between your ambition for your career and your ambition for life? How do you decide what to prioritize and what to let go of? How do you decide when to speed ahead and when to ease up? These aren’t questions of work-life balance or self-care. They’re questions we can answer when we get serious about intentionally designing a life with work that works for you. Join Kathy Oneto, executive and life-work coach and founder of Sustainable Ambition, for conversations with experts, authors, and friends to explore sticky questions around navigating ambitious careers while integrating life with work, practicing sustainable work practices, and building resilience. Most people assume that ambition and sustainability are mutually exclusive. Not so! Keep listening, and Kathy will make you a believer in Sustainable Ambition, too. — Follow or subscribe now.
