Episode 314: The Rebalancing Act with Carol Enneking
Women are often required to juggle multiple roles and it can be a challenge to maintain balance, especially when life throws curveballs. Today, we explore the art of rebalancing your life and finding personal and professional fulfillment with Carol Enneking, an accomplished human resources executive, trusted adviser, and author of The Rebalancing Act.
With extensive experience in HR, operations, and marketing, Carol works with companies to transform company culture and lead talent. In this conversation, she shares insights from her book, a collection of interviews about the daily juggling act women face, and offers her perspective on the pressure women feel to do it all.
We also discuss how true success can be found in doing less, strategies for saying no to your boss, combatting decision fatigue, the power of legacy, and more. Tune in for key insights and actionable tips for rebalancing your life, finding fulfillment, and redefining success on your own terms!
