The drawing wasn't perfect. And neither is Life.

The other day, my 7yo daughter picked up my work journal and drew in it.

The old me would have gotten angry. This is my professional space. But then I realized: there is no separation. There is no work life and home life. There's just one life.

She looked up at me and said: "But my drawing isn't perfect". And i told her: "It's perfect just the way it is. I love it."

That moment hit me:

We spend so much energy trying to keep things perfect, controlled, "professional". 

But the truth is, life is messy. Unplanned. Imperfect. And that's where the humanity - and the clarity - lies.

In leadership, in teams, in life, it's not about balance or separation.

Its about integration. Presence. Allowing what's real to be part of the story.

What if instead of chasing work-life balance, we started living one whole, human life?
