Thank you for the great tips!!! I really appreciate it! I'll keep you all posted on my book. My first one is coming out in a few weeks and will be on Amazon. I actually wrote it 15 years ago when my younger sister got married before I did ;)

Be honest with yourself and ask for help on all fronts. Have your groceries delivered. Have someone in to clean the house as frequently as you can afford. Get a diaper service. Share carpool duties with other parents. Have prepared food delivered. Keep up your strength & health by scheduling a yoga or stretching class during the week and let your partner watch the kids. Buy custom packs of vitamins to throw in your bag. Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration. Always look out for ways to cut down on your time spent doing routine tasks. You'd be surprised at how much it helps lighten the load. There are Apps for everything. Use them.

Seriously?

Yah, it's an "employer's" market, but seeing so many listings for roles that are offering literally half or 25% of what the pay should be is making me sick. You want 5-10 years experience for x? The pendulum always swings back. Employers may want to consider that. Don't hire until you can…

Would you consider a move from a corporate job for a job at a much smaller company + pay cut or just wait for another opportunity?

My current job: I'm the marketing lead for a division within a large, global media company. In addition to pay being great, benefits are as well, including 401k matching. Also, while I have a hybrid schedule and do need to go into the office a few times a week, it's flexible enough…
