Working Conversations Episode 117:

Full-Time Job AND Full-Time Caregiving?

Have you ever found yourself torn between the demands of a full-time job and the responsibilities of caregiving?

It is a question that we never would have asked prior to the pandemic.

But in today's rapidly changing landscape, the line between work and parenting has become increasingly blurred, presenting a complex and challenging situation for parents and their employers alike.

Just recently, I was training a group of new managers on managing in the remote and hybrid workplace and I got the following questions from one of the participants:

โ€œNow that the worst of the pandemic is over, what are the expectations around doing work and childcare simultaneously?โ€

โ€œIs it okay for people to be caring for their kids while they're working now?โ€


What a great question! In this episode, I delve into the multifaceted nature of navigating the realm of full-time work and full-time caregiving simultaneously. I explore the complexities, emotional toll, and logistical challenges that arise when blending the demands of work and caregiving.

Drawing from my expertise in workplace dynamics and personal development, I offer valuable insights and practical advice for those facing this unique balancing act.

So whether you find yourself personally managing the juggling act or leading a team of individuals in this situation, this episode is for you.
