I AM EDITOR: Navigating A Work/Life Balance as a Working Caretaker

Navigating A Work/Life Balance as a Working Caretaker 2 Work takes up a large part of your time, but can you imagine that for some people there is no 5:00 pm bell to go to happy hour or spare time to run through the huge list of Netflix options before watching something?Even the weekend is unable to pry you from your home duties, and after a while, weekdays and weekends just feel the same.This is the life of a working parent or caregiver (though it should be added that despite those negatives we still like our children).With all that said, you don't need to be a caretaker to understand this feeling, and hopefully this article can be an asset for everyone.It's natural to feel like time spent taking care of your loved ones is time away from work, especially during business hours.It's easy to feel guilty or imagine that your professional reputation is being dinged because you're supposedly too focused on something other than your job.
