THERE is a persistent notion that one's work life and personal life be kept separate.

Personally, I believe in work-life integration instead.

Balancing being a wife and a mother of five, along with my many responsibilities as a partner of our firm and a member of multiple professional organizations, is quite challenging. What I opt for instead is weaving these multifaceted aspects together to create harmony. Where and how I choose to spend my time — whether in the office, at home or out playing sports — are all valuable parts of the life I have.
