What are some practical ways to involve children in your work-life balance journey?

2y ago

When we think about work-life balance, the intention is to have our needs met on both sides. Gain personal fulfilment / earn income through work, yet still keep some time and energy for other parts of life that are important to you. I'm not sure what you mean by "involving children in your work-life balance journey", but perhaps start by chatting about your children during lunch breaks with colleagues, if that's a common topic. Exchange ideas for family outings, managing children behaviour etc. I find that having colleagues who understand and support one another's parenting journey is very helpful, such that we don't have to struggle between work vs family, but we are able to see one another as fellow humans having family needs too. For those who utilise childcare services, finding one near your workplace can also make it easier to spend quality time with your child on the way to and from work.
