The Wayne State University School of Medicine Women in Medicine and Science (WIMS) welcomes all members of our community to join us for a special interactive discussion: 

"Work-Life Balance: It's time for a new paradigm"

As working professional women, we are taught to strive for work-life balance. We are told that this is essential to a happy and fulfilling life. However, this pursuit often has the opposite effect, and we end up feeling stressed out and exhausted. In this talk, we will discuss the problems with work-life balance and outline an alternative approach to finding joy in all aspects of our lives.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how trying to achieve work-life balance can contribute to burnout.
  • Learn how to identify and utilize your personal core values to increase joy and fulfillment in your personal and work life.
  • Identify limiting beliefs and learn how to incorporate deliberate mindset shifts to create more time and space in your life for the things that matter most to you.
