Agree with a lot of what you're saying. However, what I find in reality is that people are kind of trapped (or at least feel this way). I had written about this recently. The tl;dr is that mid-career professionals are struggling in India to find that job which will allow them this space even if they chose to prioritize correctly.
This is valuable insight. I often say overachievers are like a magnet for work. The best players are asked to make more plays. I like the idea of color coding meetings. I also regularly block my schedule to reserve time for things that bring me joy and to recharge. Hard work is still exhausting, but living a life with fulfillment and joy is hard work!
Bravo and thanks also for acknowledging issues women have to face (not only childcare, now some are sandwiched between that and elder care).
