Any consultant with a toddler to take care of, please advice. How do you manage long work hours, spend time with the kid, do your part of house chores and cook meals at home ?

Consider taking a break, LOA - Leave of Absence May be a good option . You have no reason to push your to the extreme limits and burn yourself completely out, however you one solid reason, your kid , to take a break. Your kid deserves your attention and care, you will also have a deep sense of fulfillment and satisfaction by staying with him all the time

No one can’t and shouldn’t. Figure out your priorities. I am not saying work isn’t important but even at work, say cook a simple meal instead of 4 course dinner or hire a cook, leverage cleaning services for house chores. At work, reduce firm activities, take local project

Long work hours can probably give you a 5% additional hike, an early promotion or just a small appreciation or nothing (sometimes). But it will definitely spoil your well-being and the relationships with your friends &family including your kid. Try to have a healthy work life balance - we are not in life saving business . Making money is important but making memories is even more important

Things you should do 1. Divide chores between you and SO 2. Don’t try to do it all. Nobody can have it all.does not matter if home is Little messy or u always cook quick fix things 3.get help. Get a maid every two week , if you are in a big city get a cook to come and help you . Build network of friends and neighbors who can help look for kids if you are running late or Take rest on weekends , don’t over do it
