How do we cope with this very real problem of burnout? Real life is MESSY. Things bleed into each other, and that’s the reality of parenthood.
The other day, my husband and I were talking about wishing our jobs had more separation – that we could do the eight-hour workday, then deal with personal life when we got home.
More than ever, we’re finding both worlds are seeping into each other. Childcare and personal responsibilities seep into the workday, while work seeps into the evenings, early mornings, and weekends.
To me, this is the biggest problem of burnout – the expectation that we should give everything to our jobs and everything to our kids, yet still keep them separate.
So that’s what today’s episode is about – coping with burnout, and some ideas I’m trying out to AVOID getting to those extreme levels.
I hope you’ll join me!
