Is “work-life balance” even real—or just a leftover idea from the factory era?
In this candid and energizing conversation, Chuck Blakeman, John Heenan, and Henry McCrory unpack what it really means to live an integrated life—where work and personal priorities aren’t constantly at war, but intentionally woven together.
Together, they challenge the outdated notion of balance and offer a refreshing perspective on how to build a business and life around purpose, not pressure.
🎧 You’ll hear:
✅ Why traditional “balance” creates rigidity, not freedom
✅ How integration gives you more control over your time and energy
✅ The one question that helps you focus on what truly matters
✅ Why managing tasks isn’t the same as leading your life
✅ How to schedule your days around values—not just obligations
💡 “What will I be glad I did today—10 years from now?”
