For years, we’ve been told to chase work-life balance — that perfect, fragile moment when everything lines up just right.
But what if balance isn’t the goal?
In the latest episode of The Leadership Laboratory, I talk with Lauren Palandino, a continuous improvement expert who offers a refreshing alternative: Work-Life Harmony.
Lauren compares life to a piano:
“Your biggest priorities are the white keys. Your smaller commitments are the black keys. The magic happens when you learn to play chords — not just single notes.”
That mindset helped her navigate one of life’s biggest transitions — returning to work after maternity leave.
In our conversation, Lauren shares:
- How to let go of perfection without lowering your standards
- Simple, five-minute habits to find rhythm throughout your day
- How embracing creativity can actually improve accountability and growth

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “playing too many notes at once,” this conversation will help you create a life that feels more like music — uniquely yours.
