280: Bye Bye 9-to-5: The Power of Chronotypes with Camilla Kring
Manage episode 501344468 series 3558765
On Work from the Inside Out, episode 280, I spoke with Camilla Kring, an engineer turned expert in work-life balance and circadian rhythms. With a PhD in work-life balance and decades of experience across the globe, Camilla has dedicated her career to helping individuals and organizations create flexible cultures that honor people’s natural rhythms.
In our conversation, she explained how identifying your chronotype, whether you’re an early bird, night owl, or somewhere in between, can transform productivity, creativity, and overall well-being. She shared her journey of writing, researching, and working during her peak energy hours, even if they didn’t fit the traditional nine-to-five mold.
Through her company, Super Navigators, and nonprofit, The B-Society, Camilla has led change in both workplaces and schools. Her mission is clear: to empower us to live in sync with our rhythms, embrace self-compassion, and design lives that are sustainable, healthy, and fulfilling.
In this week’s Work From The Inside Out podcast, learn more about:
- Understanding biological clocks, being an early bird or night owl, and how this impacts productivity and health.
- Tools and frameworks to intentionally design time, goals, and rhythms for a fulfilling life.
- How organizations can support diverse schedules, build trust, and boost employee well-being and performance.
- Advocacy for later school start times and the need to align societal norms with natural rhythms.
- Accepting one’s natural rhythm, releasing guilt from societal pressures, and embracing authenticity.
