Hi I'm Zack, and the purpose of my work is to help you find meaning and purpose in yours (without burning out...or selling your creative soul).If you've built your entire career around your creativity like I have, you may be asking the same question I am: Is there a future for us “creatives,” Or is it game over? I can't promise that I know what the future brings, but I do promise few are more dedicated to helping you find the answers than I am.You're in the right place if:You live to create. Your work isn't just a job but an expression of who you are.You create to live. Your livelihood depends on your creativity.You love making cool shit.Whether you identify as introverted or neurodivergent (or both, like me)...No matter if you're a misfit, a rebel, an outlier, or a troublemaker...If you've been called weird, nerdy, dorky, quirky, or awkward...Or if you’re an over-thinker, procrastinator, or perfectionist…You are welcome here. 😊Come join me as I have honest, authentic, and candid conversations with NYT bestselling authors, Oscar and Emmy winners, experts across many different industries, and ordinary humans achieving extraordinary things.

Feel like you're always behind and never enough? Blame work-life "balance."

Fri Jan 16 2026

Listen

I’m doubling down on the live grenade I tossed into the room when I said work-life balance is b******t, and in this mini-episode I unpack why building our work around our lives still doesn’t mean balance is the answer. I share why the pursuit of work-life balance only leads to guilt, why in our hyper-connected, post-pandemic hellscape it’s not just futile but meaningless, and how chasing equal time between work and life can leave us miserable. I also dig into the shift that changed everything for me after reading Four Thousand Weeks, why I’m no longer interested in balance but fulfillment, and how embracing a conscious, strategic imbalance might be the only way to create meaningful work, be at peace with how I spend my time, and avoid wasting these four thousand weeks. All that in more in my latest Substack → Feel like you're always behind and never enough? Blame work-life "balance." When you're done, I'd love your thoughts here in the comments!
