Martha Stewart Calls Work-Life Balance a Myth, Starts Work at 7 AM at 85
At 85, US entrepreneur Martha Stewart dismisses the idea of work-life balance as unrealistic, stating, "You can't balance it." She follows a rigorous routine, waking at 4 am for exercise and starting work by 7 am, expecting her team to do the same. Stewart views career changes as transformations driven by curiosity rather than pivots. After serving five months in federal prison related to a stock-sale case, she rebuilt her public profile and continues to lead her lifestyle business and AI startup.
