No Such Thing as a Work-Life Balance

Show Notes

You can read the full transcript here.

A little throwback to earlier seasons when it was just Ryan talking about something he finds interesting. In this episode it’s all about the so-called “work-life balance” and what that means for students. Also, why it’s a pretty terrible metaphor.

This episode includes:

• Music: England by Pictures of the Floating World
• Denis Lacombe’s “Maestro” Cirque de Soleil act
• Cirque de Soleil’s Le Cirque Réinventé show
• CNN Money - Women and the Work-Life Balance
• NPR’s So We Know Students Are Stressed Out Now Let’s Talk About It

Thanks for listening!
