Do you or someone you know struggle to work AND look after your kids? You’re not alone. I hear you. Working from home already has its challenges, but throwing kids into the equation takes it to a whole new level. So I created this very topical podcast episode to help you, if you are a working mum that currently has no space, not enough time and the pressure to get work done.
In this episode, you will hear how you can approach this unusual combination:
- using a straight approach based on working hours: this is a ‘math-based’ perspective looking at how we can achieve work in the middle of your parenting duties
- using a flexible results-based approach: this is my suggestion to stop looking at hours, and only focus on your results instead.
- by managing your mind so you can be at your best: your mind can actually make it worse for you because of all the feelings this very tough juggle generate for you. I share with you all the common negative thoughts that stick with us, and some new ones to use instead for more productive results.
Working with kids can be done, as long as you think through the HOW and learn to manage your worried mind. As usual, I share with you some very actionable strategies and let you choose what will work best.
Please share this episode to all working mums out there doing it tough. It will give you tools to stay calm, organised and feel like you ARE doing enough.
