Produktbeschreibung
In The Paris Paradox, executive Shemin Nurmohamed reveals how French attitudes toward work, leisure, and life can transform our approach to success. Drawing from her nearly two decades living in France while building a career and raising a family, she offers a refreshing alternative to America's burnout culture. This book provides practical wisdom on how to create more balance without sacrificing ambition: take proper vacations that rejuvenate rather than exhaust, develop deep expertise through patience rather than constant promotion-seeking, build meaningful community in a disconnected world, and find contentment in everyday moments. Through compelling stories and actionable advice, Nurmohamed demonstrates that the French approach--putting life before work, quality before quantity, and relationships before achievements--can lead to greater fulfillment and paradoxically, more meaningful success. Discover how incorporating these principles can create a more joyful, sustainable way to live and work, no matter where you are.
