MEET THE TEAM
Managing a family and having to work entails a lot of effort to be equally good at both roles. How to balance it? I think the key word is love. Loving what you both do, fostering my kids, doing household errands and still managing to have a fulfilling career.
It is certainly not easy. I am a mom of three boys (four, actually, if I add my husband!) and even now I struggle with balancing my work and home life. I just made a promise to myself that no matter how busy I am, I will always find time to be present for my boys and to enjoy every bit of it.

Being a working mom, I manage to achieve balance through setting limits and priorities. Since I'm consuming 48 hours a week at work, when I'm at home, I make sure that I'm dedicating my time to my two year-old daughter. I'm the one to prepare her food and milk, bathe her before going to bed, and put her to sleep at night. During weekends, there are no excuses for me not to play with her and have some study time!
Being organized and having exceptional time management are key factors to balancing motherhood and my career. I always make sure that my son and I have quality time and a good conversation before he goes to sleep. Indeed, motherhood is challenging but I'm glad that my work allows me to have time for my family and to still be able to devote time and energy to my professional career development.

The challenge is time management. It’s a difficult process, and tiring, but for the sake of children and family, a mother does what ahe can to fulfill the needs of her child. Work is still a time-consuming process, but I choose to do it for my family. At the same time, I am proud to be a mother like myself, a working mother. It's hard but as a mother and woman, you find a way to juggle work and motherhood.

It is not easy to balance motherhood and a career, but it is possible if you work hard and stay positive! It is not easy but mothers can truly be the best version of themselves when they make room for everything else.
