Downshifting And Upshifting For Working ...

NATALIE BACON
About this episode

Working mom face unique challenges with time, energy, and resources spent between home life, family life, and work life. In this podcast, I explore how "downshifting" and "upshifting" can be a useful and empowering framework to help you live a life aligned with your values and on your terms.

 

Instead of feeling overwhelmed by work and powerless to make changes, this podcast will help you create more work life balance in a unique and different way that no one is talking about right now.

 

Without making downshifting or upshifting a moral issue, but instead making it a personal decision, you can lead a centered life that has space for both your work life and your home life. Tune in to learn how.
