It’s a delicate balancing act. On one hand, you have your career, which provides you fulfillment, purpose, and obviously, a paycheck. On the other hand, you’re taking care of someone you love. Trying to give 100% to these two vitally important roles can leave you physically and mentally emptied, with little if any time to take care of yourself.
You are not the only one. As many as 6 out of 10 family care providers over age 50 are also working outside of the home. What are their secrets to obtaining a healthy life balance, and how can home care help family caregivers?
