Masterclass ‘Life-Work Balance Inspired by Leadership Stories’
In this Masterclass, Hiba Rajha shares the key insights drawn from 40 interviews with inspiring women leaders, centered on a universal and often taboo theme: the balance between professional and personal life. The session gives voice to those who have had to juggle professional ambition, family commitments, and the search for meaning. It’s not a lesson in perfection, but a behind-the-scenes look at human leadership, where doubts, choices, sacrifices – and strategies of resilience – come to light.
Among the most powerful takeaways, we learn how to break free from self-imposed limits to succeed across different spheres of life, why compromises can become acts of freedom when they align with personal values, and how the myth of ‘having it all at once’ needs to be replaced with a more dynamic vision of life. We also hear how guilt can be transformed into pride and a legacy of values, why letting go of perfectionism is essential to thriving, and how self-care, pauses, supportive networks, honest conversations with loved ones, and transparency with children can become the true pillars of sustainable balance.
Hiba channels these experiences to offer us a compass for redefining success: not as a solitary sprint, but as a shared journey, nourished by clarity of priorities, the strength of connection, and the right to imperfection.
