Granta’s Production and Design Director, Sarah Wasley, talks to The Flip about knowing your own limitations, balancing caring with her career and her experience of adjusting her working conditions to fit around her life.
Professionally, as a department of one, I have to be honest about what I can take on or what I need to function because I want to still have a life outside of work and time for a glass of wine now and again. It can't be a grind; it just can't be. Otherwise, what's the point? Good work–life balance is very, very important. Life on the outside has to be as nourishing and fulfilling as the jobs that we’re doing – because that’s why we’re working, isn’t it? To be able to have a life we enjoy.
