You know you make a difference. Your talent and expertise come together in your work to make an important contribution to the world. But your dedication shouldn't mean sacrificing all the other parts of yourself. Inspired by principles from Montessori classrooms, educator and researcher Dr. Katie Keller Wood offers an alternative approach to thinking about your work and life―one that embraces you as a whole person rather than splitting you in two.
Drawing on decades of experience teaching Montessori students and adults, Keller Wood rejects the concept of work-life balance in favor of a more holistic alliance between you and your work. Your life is not a balancing act but a constantly evolving mosaic, and when the pieces are all aligned, thriving follows. There can be space enough for all the things that matter.
With real-world examples, exercises, and activities, this transformative, research-informed book will help you catch the first signs of misalignment and then show you how to move through a realignment process, so that you can find joy and value in all parts of your life, including your meaningful work. It's time to ditch the balancing act and get yourself into Alignment.
