Hi! I’m a busy mom of two kids and, in addition to this blog, work full-time as a graphic designer. I spent the last several years trying to find a work-life balance that allowed me to be present at work, take care of my kids, and also carve out time for me. While my kids may not need me in the same ways they did as infants and toddlers, they definitely still need my time and attention (and a ride to baseball practice). Finding time to do things for me has continued to be a challenge.
While I definitely don’t have it all figured out, I’m sharing what has worked for me. The things I like to do to make my alone time more enjoyable. Sometimes that’s getting stronger by working out, or sometimes thats relaxing by listening to a podcast while I color. Whatever you decide to take away from this, I hope it brings something to your life you didn’t have before.
