Finding Balance in the Overwhelm
Who or what do you put first?
How do you manage your time? When and how do you
say ‘no’? How do you revive yourself when you’re
tired? What have you done for YOU today?
If you’re asking yourself these questions, you’re
not alone. Millions of freelancers and WAHM’s are
desperately trying to stay afloat in the
overwhelming desire of balancing work and family.
We want what’s best for our families, but we also
have a strong desire to work that won’t let us
rest.
Do You Have SS?
I lovingly refer to it as the
Supermom Syndrome: the belief that we can and
should do it ALL with a smile and no need for
thanks. Stop for a moment and recall that 50 years
ago it was considered a full-time occupation to
raise the kids. Today, we have taken on the task of
not only raising the kids, but building a full-time
income without letting go of any former
responsibilities. It’s like working two full-time
jobs simultaneously.
No wonder we’re tired. But does that make it
impossible? Where there’s a will there’s a way,
it’s just a matter of how to get there without
burning ourselves out.
This section is for freelancers and WAHM’s who
aren’t willing to compromise, but still want to find
balance in the overwhelm. We’ll be covering simple
tips and strategies you can learn to make your life
easier and more rewarding.
