How busy mums can create more balance in their life

I can help you to get to a place where you feel balanced, content and in control, so you can focus on driving your career while enjoying motherhood and the time you spend with your family.

The struggles career-driven Mums face today affect both their family lives and their careers

My own research has shown me that Mums often feel that they don’t have enough time for either their work or their families, particularly as they carry a lot of the mental load around at home, and these struggles manifest themselves in an over-riding feeling of guilt.

The impact of all of this is devasting, with stress and exhaustion being sadly, very common feeling​s. Mums feel that if they didn’t face these struggles, they would have a much better chance of progressing their careers​ and achieving a state of happiness and balance.

For most that state feels a long way off, as in terms of the solution - Mums say they would need both practical and emotional support ​with some targeted actions around their own personal development. The desire for more understanding, parenting equality and fewer expectations on them were also part of the support they are looking for.

  • "I would highly recommend Anna as a Life Coach. She created a calm and safe space in which I was able to explore issues within my working life, and gently led me through a process to help to find ways of building a more holistic and fulfilling future. In every session she paid great attention to detail, listened keenly and provided feedback that consistently shed light on my situation, giving clarity and perspective. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Anna, am definitely reaping the benefits from the work we did together, and look forward to working with her again in the future."

  • "My sessions with Anna were a welcome opportunity to pause, reflect about where I am now and where I need to be and put some strategies in place around how I'm going to get there. Anna’s calm, relaxed and gentle presence set the scene, her quiet, insightful questions and confident ability to help me hold myself accountable was so refreshing. It felt like she was holding a quiet space for me to give myself permission to spend time on me. From feeling overwhelmed by having free time and choices, I now have a workable plan."
