Hello Camille, I think everyone that works a demanding position has felt this before and Jeanette above did a great job covering it. The way I deal with it is finding alternative ways to spend time with loved ones, you may not have weekends off in the beginning and work until 8pm then wake up at 4am but calling loved ones during the day or spending lunch together or just a simple text will help me remain connected.

I get the most stressed when I feel I'm not giving enough to my loved ones so when time is limited, use alternative love languages (5 love languages) to help. I find that taking a five minute breather every now and again helps me to reset and rolling back my shoulders then telling myself no matter what things will be okay really helps as well.

Good luck!

Jeanette’s Answer

Camille, to manage the demands of work and personal life you have to set priorities. Some things must have top priority and you will have to devote the majority of your time to accomplishing your top priority tasks. Other tasks are important and need to be done but may have to be delayed until top priority tasks are accomplished. Other tasks fall into the "nice to do" category. They are things that you would like to do but they must wait until higher priority matters are taken care of. There are plenty of books on time management and I think it would be worthwhile for you to read a few of them.
