The Hiring Pool

Taking care of yourself while you work is an imperative. Take several breaks throughout the day that do not revolve around your task list. Below we highlight both products and mindfulness practices that will help you be the best version of yourself while you work.

We use the term work/life harmony instead of work/life balance intentionally. Balance suggests a 50% equation between our work and home lives, but in reality, work is only 1/3 of our weekdays. Work/life balance may lead to guilt if one side requires more attention than the other, such as when our human needs show up in our work environment. We aim for harmony, which encourages boundaries that create symmetry between your personal and professional needs. Our goal is to help individuals determine what healthy boundaries look like between themselves and their careers. Each book is selected to educate the readers on various aspects of work/life harmony. Please join us as we read and provide reflection questions on various topics such as burnout, boundary-setting, and how to log off mentally from work at the end of your day! Below, we have provided the book recommendation, our review, and some facilitation questions to help you and/or your group reflect and implement sustainable goals for work/life harmony.

We want to make your work space a little bit more comfortable and a lot more fun. Bring your personality into the office. Whoever said professionalism meant that we couldn't be ourselves in the workplace doesn't know what they are talking about.
