I’m working from home with a toddler who doesn’t nap — it’s impossible to focus, and I feel like I’m failing at both work and motherhood. How do I cope without breaking down?

It sounds incredibly tough to juggle both work and caring for a toddler. The first thing to remember is that you're doing your best, and it’s okay to have tough days. One way to cope is to try setting small, manageable expectations for both work and home. You could break your tasks into chunks. Maybe talk to your partner or a trusted person about creating a support system during your work hours—like asking for help with the toddler for even just a short period. Also, try to set a routine for the day that includes some time for you to recharge, even if it’s just a few minutes of breathing or stepping away for a moment. Little breaks can help you refocus and prevent burnout. Most importantly, remember that you don’t have to be perfect—it's okay to ask for help and lean on others when you need it.
