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.
