Balanced Living Over twenty years ago Kathleen Barton realized her life was out of balance. She spent all her time working, going to school, and studying. She didn’t have time for her husband much less herself. Faced with the prospect of losing her marriage, she realized she had totally lost sight of her priorities. That was the start of her life balance journey. In the ensuing years, Ms. Barton sought out alternative work arrangements to bring more balance into her life. In 1987 she found a job-share partner and sold the concept to her boss. She worked in the job-share while she completed her MBA. After her first child was born, she went back to work full-time while her husband, “Mr. Mom” as he called himself, stayed home with their daughter. After their second child was born, she went back to work part-time after taking six months maternity leave. Today she, a “reformed workaholic,” has teenage kids, and runs her own business from a home office.
