We had the good fortune of connecting with S. Kennedy and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi S., how has your perspective on work-life balance evolved over time?
Daily, I have to renew my spirit. I began to get in tune with other meditation. I began governing my moments to recenter around the time to meditate. At this time, I have began incorporating silent moments to help re-channel stress, time management and anxiety. I think it is important to have moments of rest and breaks. I walk in the grass with no shoes, I bear hug trees, I play in the rain with my son, and most of all I laugh. One day, I will build the courage to do my stand up!!
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

As I continue to grow in my career and life, one of the greatest lesson is to establish boundaries and balance between work and fulfillment and rest.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Well, my best friend and I enjoy adventure. One of the first places we would tour is the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Atlantic historic center, and one of my favorite mom and pop Peruvian restaurants. We would visit the container store and a few other stores that sell plants and concepts regarding home/ business, office space well organized. We are both minimalist who enjoy imaginable well designed spaces without cluttering with bulky outdated furniture, etc. . We would go to a few art and fashion shows as well. Our diet would be a new food experiences daily as both first time guest.
