@itstashmurphy: Somewhere along the way... mums were expected to do everything at once. Work like we don't have children. Parent like we don't have responsibilities. Show up everywhere. Never feel overwhelmed. And somehow still enjoy every moment. I remember looking at schedules like this thinking... how is this even possible without constantly feeling exhausted or guilty? That's why so many of us feel like we're constantly chasing our tails. Not because we're doing anything wrong. But because we're trying to solve an equation that simply doesn't balance. I remember thinking adulthood would feel easier by this age. That if we worked hard, did all the right things and kept ticking the boxes, life would eventually feel comfortable. Instead, it feels like so many families are working harder than ever whilst somehow having less time, less breathing room and less margin for error. The maths isn't mathing anymore ? That's a big reason why I started looking for another way. Something that could fit into the small pockets of time I already had instead of taking even more time away from my kids. Because these years with our babies are too important to miss. If you're a mum trying to figure out a different way too... follow along @wealthwithtash on lnstagr@m and comment "ME" and I'II share what worked for me.

The standard work week was formulated when only one parent needed to work in order to support the family, and hasn’t adjusted since 😭

Most of us do this.. the key is finding a job that accepts it. I do not like where I work, but I make good money and they allow me to go and do with my kid without a fuss. Before this, I worked night shift.

What’s crazy to me is how normalized the flexiblity of WFH has become. Both my husband and I work in person so the dropoffs and pickups have to happen after and before work. It has a negative impact on us bc it’s assumed now that parents’ schedules are more flexible, and it has a negative effect on those parents who actually do have that flexibility because it’s assumed and now those tasks are built into the work day. Sucks all around

I love my job. It’s a flex hybrid schedule. My schedule is pretty consistent based on my kids schedule but as long as I get my work done and meet my required hours, I basically can work as I need/want. Pay sucks but I’ll take a pay loss to have this flexibility

I work from home and my boss lets me drop off and pick up the kids to and from school every day. I hope I continue to like working here enough as I’m pretty much stuck working here till the kids graduate

One of the reasons I didn’t have kids. My hours are 9-6, but I’m constantly working after hours and weekends, plus traveling for work. There’s no way I could raise a child on top of this.

The only way I made it as a single mom of two was to work at their school…. Didn’t make tons of money but at least I was able to be off when they were. It’s so tough, hang in there💝
