It’s difficult to find balance when we’re pulled in so many directions and with so much thrown at us from all directions: phone calls, texts, emails, household, kids. I’m all too familiar with finding balance. Having single-handedly raised 3 children while working 2 full time jobs, taking evening classes toward my undergrad degree, being a soccer mom and chauffeur for extra curriculum activities. I slept very little and didn’t have much of a social life. Eventually I burned out, physically, mentally, spiritually.
I had the juggling act down to a science, but I wasn’t balanced.
