This TED Business podcast features an interview with writer Simone Stolzoff, who argues that the common question "What do you do?" is limiting and promotes unhealthy work-life integration. Stolzoff advocates for asking "What do you like to do?" instead, encouraging listeners to diversify their identities beyond their jobs. He suggests creating "time sanctuaries" for activities outside of work to cultivate other aspects of oneself, joining communities unconcerned with professional roles, and starting small with simple activities like a weekly walk. This approach, he argues, not only improves well-being but also enhances creativity and resilience.
