Hey Friend and Happy First Monday in May with Marshecka!
I hope this blog finds you doing spectacular. It’s been busy around here—from vendor meetings to client consultations and site visits. And, of course, there’s everyday life with all the duties that come with being a mother, wife, sister, daughter, friend, event planner, and yes, a dog mom too. How do you all balance it all?
Speaking of balance, today’s blog post is a bit more personal than usual. On Mondays, I like to share a little bit about myself, hence the reason for Mondays with Marshecka. Today, I want to open up about how I manage to juggle all these roles while keeping my sanity and still delivering the exquisite events that you love.
Effective Time Management
Managing time wisely is my first secret. I prioritize my tasks and make sure to schedule everything, including dog walks and playtime. This way, I ensure that every aspect of my life gets a piece of my time without overwhelming me.
Setting Clear Boundaries
I’ve learned to say no when necessary and to set clear boundaries between work and personal life. This helps me ensure that once I’m home, I’m present with my family, friends, and my furry friend, which is so important for my personal relationships and mental health.
Embracing Moments of Self-Care
Taking care of myself is crucial. Whether it’s a quick spa visit, a ride on my peloton, a yoga session, or simply enjoying a quiet cup of coffee in the morning, these moments of self-care rejuvenate me. They help me maintain my energy levels and focus, allowing me to be more efficient and creative in my work.
Staying Digitally Organized
Technology is a significant ally. I use apps and digital tools not only to keep track of my professional tasks but also to manage personal commitments, including those related to my dog. This helps prevent any overlaps and keeps me on top of my game.
Regular Reflection
I regularly take a step back to assess how well I’m balancing my life. This reflection allows me to adjust my approach, whether it means delegating more tasks, adjusting my schedule, or even just reminding myself to breathe and take things one step at a time.
Keeping Connected
My support network is my backbone. Staying connected with my loved ones, sharing my challenges, and celebrating successes together keeps me grounded and reminded of why I do what I do.
Friend, balancing a multifaceted life is an ongoing process, and some days are definitely smoother than others. But with these strategies, I find myself able to enjoy both my career and personal life without sacrificing the joy in either.
