“People parent in different ways. Just like people live in different ways, and that’s totally fine because diversity is good.” ~ Sue
“The problem is we keep trying to systematize the workplace, rather than individualizing it… we aren’t just our jobs. But so few workplaces are built around people, they are built around the work. That’s’ what makes it so hard for us to adjust right now.” ~ Kristen
Parenting in a pandemic advice from Kristen & Sue:
- Set your boundaries: for both work and home life.
- Reset boundaries & check in with these limitations to take back control.
- Negotiate your time/schedule with your employer - WFH, flexible hours, etc.
- Ask yourself: What in your life is exhausting you & filling you up more? Find more energy
- Practicing gratitude: pause to reflect on what you are grateful for these days.
- Stay “in community” with those who support you and you also can support with real talk.
