Early this year I lost someone special. She was only 20, at least she knew she was loved.
So as I think about what I want to achieve this year, it was a huge kick up the back side to set myself some goals about people I love. My first goal is to laugh with my boys every day, and make sure they know they are loved.
Ok so this morning when I was yelling at my oldest for taking ten minutes to get his coat on, it all went down the pan a bit! But seriously, you never know what might happen tomorrow, so now I have something to moderate my worst 'mad mum' outbreaks.
Yesterday I even went on 43 things to log my goals, and I thought this might be a great way for anyone trying the career/ life / balance planning process to help commit and also get some reminders.
Just over 2 years ago, I step-changed my working life.
I now have an amazing work life balance with a portfolio career full of things I do for both money and love.
Mum-Life-Balance is born out of my experience of spending time with talented women who have great wisdom to share, and my wish to pass this on.
