S2 Ep3: Ego - the story of insecure overachievers

04/18/23 • 38 min

This episode I’m talking to tech titan-turned-author Jamie Heywood.

I love this conversation because it really digs deep into the internal root factors that hold us back from achieving the balance that we desire - but also explores some of the broader socioeconomic systems that are underpinning work-life balance issues at the moment.

Listen in to hear about...

❌ Why the ‘work to live’ mentality isn’t always helpful
👿 How your ego is pulling you out of balance
💰 Why the term ‘compensation’ is so messed up

At the end of the episode, I give you my takeaways related to how work-life balance connects with energy and flow, and summarise the top 3 ways to prevent your ego pulling you out of balance.

⏰ The daily 9-5 AND 5-9 of a junior doctor
👪 Why doctors are putting major life events on hold
🤔 How achieving work-life balance is harder for women than men

This is a conversation that opened my eyes to worlds far removed from my own: the worlds of a junior doctor, a public sector worker and of a woman in a historically male-dominated workplace.

Ravina is an ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) registrar, training to become a consultant surgeon. She has also hosted episodes of the WENTS & Friends podcast series, by Women in ENT Surgery UK.
