This series, I'm sharing insights from my book Work/Life Flywheel.
In this episode, I discuss why the idea of Work/Life Balance needs rethinking and how the Flywheel model can help you reframe the relationship between work and life.
Chapter Summary:
- Perfectly balancing work and life is impossible.
- Rather than looking for momentary harmony, you need a model that enables constant progress.
- The Flywheel Effect occurs when each part of a business model is interdependent and complementary, creating a virtuous circle.
- Amazon built multiple businesses by designing Flywheels built on an obsession with creating customer value.
- An effective Flywheel is never static – it’s constantly in motion, evolving and expanding.
- What’s common to every Flywheel is that no single part is more important than another – they have to work together in harmony.
- The Work/Life Flywheel is built on six interconnected parts – Mindset, Creativity, Experimentation, Community, Learning, and Breakthroughs.

Here’s what Will Page former Chief Economist of Spotify has said about it:
"Work/Life Flywheel puts to bed the notion that our work-life balance is an either/or trade off: the two move in tandem, and this book helps us find that binding rhythm."
