I recently read one of my college friend's tweets and it read: "What do you work for, money or health care?"

To hell with balance! Do what you love, really, and include loving yourself. The rest will fall into place. It's all about saying yes to what, and whom, you love, without guilt or fear.

People love to pigeonhole; they make snap judgments based on the most obvious thing about you, which is usually your job. Being raised around this sort of thing, we grow up being domesticated into believing these 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. stereotypes as being factual.

I had the opportunity to interview Dr. Patricia Adson, a psychologist who works to help men and women strike a healthy balance between life and work. Overextending yourself at home and at work, according to Dr. Adson, is a leading ingredient to a stress-filled life.
