Work-Life Balance: It's a Myth

Are you a busy women who works and has a ton of family obligations?

Are you constantly searching for a magical way to strike the elusive work-life balance?

Well, my friends, I have some unsettling news: 

It doesn't exist.

Work/life balance is a myth.

The end.

Okay, not really.

But seriously, there is no way that we can strike balance between all that we do on a daily basis.

I would REALLY love "balance" to be a thing, but it's not.

In my opinion, it's more like juggling.

For example, if you are a parent trying to run a business, there are always multiple things that will seem most important.

Nothing is ever balanced. It just isn't.

You might have a program that is launching -- IMPORTANT.

A kid that's crying - IMPORTANT.

Rent that's due - IMPORTANT.

You have balls in the air, constantly. Juggling them.

Each day bringing a barrage of IMPORTANT things to juggle. Their priority status shifting moment to moment.

The key is, one of those balls, needs to be YOU.

Consider this:

YOU are the greatest asset to your business and your family.

Not your computer, not your VA. 

YOU.

Without YOU, the business falls apart; your family falls apart.

If one of those balls in the air is YOU -- meaning, you deem yourself IMPORTANT -- the juggling will get a little bit easier and maybe someday, that elusive "balance" just might become a thing.

Ladies, take are of YOU. 

YOU are worth it.

Love YOU More.
