I too am on a lifelong journey to balance work
and family. I have always worked crazy hours,
relying on exercise to keep me mentally and

getting a fun activity or trip on the calendar

try to laugh as much as possible. Laughing and
smiling helps you to relax and elevates your
mood and that of others around you too! T
