WORK HARD PARENT HARD
I hear the objection- “I/we don’t have time” a lot. The truth is, parents either don’t want to make any changes to how they operate, or they don’t think investing in themselves is a priority. For organisations it’s much the same, support for their parents isn’t a priority for their organisation.
How often do you think about what it is that you are passing on to your own Children? Do you ever reflect on how you were raised and think, I want to do that differently? It’s great to make changes and evolve as society does, but being consciously aware of how we change those behaviours isn’t as easy as we think.
Self Image isn’t just about Physical appearance, think about how confident you are in yourself? Do you feel positive, capable and determined in life? Cultivating a positive self image can make or break you as a woman, so what can we do to improve it?
When I reflect on my life, there are some really amazing stand out moments where I have problem solved something under pressure. NOTHING compares to the problems you solve as a parent.
Being a working Mother can be a real juggling act. Life can feel like utter chaos and trying to fit everything in can sometimes feel like a huge Struggle.
Being a parent is one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences you can have. Add a career to the mix, and you have a recipe for a very hectic, demanding life. I had a coffee meeting the other day and the man I met has 3 older daughters and he asked me- “How on Earth do you do it all with 3 Children under 4?”. Well let me tell you…
If you have the right mindset and you have the right approach to it, you can absolutely balance being a mother and your career successfully. There are a few elements that must be in place though, and I’ll start with the most important at the top!
