In Episode 34 of the Kindred Spirits Podcast, Maddy and Melissa and joined by Steven Langer, founder of Well by Design, to discuss the critically important but often elusive topic of work-life balance.

Steven has had an incredibly rich career, with over 15 years of experience in the public and private sectors as a leader and executive. He has demonstrated experience in leading teams and creating healthy workplace cultures. As the Founder and CEO of Well By Design, his focus is on enhancing workplace wellness and leadership development. Steven holds a Master of Leadership, along with a degree in education, coursework in change management, organizational behaviour, executive human resource management, and strategic planning.

To build wellness into his own life, he enjoys time with his family, connecting with nature through hikes and off leash visits with his dog, as well as tennis, camping and sailing. Steven shared his powerful personal story of hitting rock bottom from burnout after pushing himself too hard juggling career, family, and personal responsibilities.

His past experiences opened his eyes to how easily anyone can become overloaded and depleted without proper self-care. Stephen shared insights from consulting organizations on building healthy cultures, like adjusting meeting times for better work-life integration.

Steven offered a compassionate but pragmatic framework for sustainable living to avoid the personal and professional costs of burnout. It's a real eye-opener, so do yourself a favor and give this episode a listen!
