He identifies 24/7 connection as a major challenge to work-life harmony, as people have conditioned themselves and others to be constantly available. Kenny encourages listeners to be mindful of these challenges and to shut down work when it's time to be over. He also emphasizes the importance of awareness and having conversations with one's team about the impacts of work on personal life.</p> <p>Chapman concludes by encouraging listeners to strive for progress rather than perfection in achieving work-life harmony. He believes that by up-leveling harmony, individuals can improve their overall job perfor
