Is there a perfect balance of time spent alone and time spent with others?
Hello - today we're discussing the topic of how to balance time effectively between socialising and alone time. This is something that has perplexed me for a very long time! So I wanted to explore whether such a perfect balance existed (spoiler alert: it doesn't!), and how we can improve the way we spend time both alone and with other people, without burning out.
