Sharon is also a busy mother with two girls between the ages of 9 and 12, who keep her extremely busy with school and extracurricular activities. She is also works part-time at her job as an accountant. In addition to juggling the home, kids, spouse and work, she also takes care of her elderly mother. Being a part of the sandwich generation, Sharon is overwhelmed with the increasing responsibilities involving the care of her elderly mother. Her mother is getting forgetful and needs someone to check in on her regularly. Sharon was overwhelmed with all the multiple hats she wore during the day. As a coach, Sharon and I worked together to identify strategies to manage her various responsibilities and implement steps to bring back balance in her life. Sharon needed someone to assist her in strategies she can implement to get balance back in her life. I assisted her to identify various resources available to her to assist her in taking care of her elderly mother.
Terri is a mother of three children, a toddler, a preschooler, and a kindergartener. She is overwhelmed with trying to parent all three. Terri feels easily caught up in the day to day life and feels a large amount of mommy guilt if she tries to take time for herself. She feels life is stressful trying to manage all three kids, and unorganized and overwhelmed by the work required in maintaining her home. Terri has not lost any of the weight she gained with her last pregnancy even though she feels like she is constantly running like a hamster. She is unable to find time for herself and is often angry and stressed out. Terrie is caught up in the daily grind of life and often overextends herself as she tries to take care of her family. As a coach, Terri and I worked together to find routines that worked for her and her family. Terri needed assistance in identifying ways to get the daily chores done without being stressed out and still finding time to play with the kids. Terri’s biggest challenge was to identify opportunities to take time for herself and not feel guilty about it. Terri is soon learned that taking mommy-time on a regular basis lead to a much happier person, mother and wife. One added bonus that she had not anticipated was her husband’s support and encouragement. |
