How do I keep my team engaged when I am also struggling to stay motivated?

Our department has had a lot of turnover within the last few months, all of which were from different reasons (school, family issues, opportunities close to home, etc.). It has been a challenge to divide the workload, while still trying to remain flexible and provide a work-life balance.

However, I’m starting to feel stressed and disengaged. Any suggestions to make it through the changes?

Nothing could be more appreciated than honesty and vulnerability in times like this.
I would acknowledge that you know it’s been hard everyone lately and acknowledge how your feeling with your team. I think the relatability will go a long way. Give yourself some grace and tell them to do the same.
Then ask them what they feel would be helpful.

Is there anyway some of the workloads you all are covering can be forgone momentarily?

How do I stop? I’m not talking work-life balance. I mean, how do I say, “I don’t care that the client wants this tomorrow and I’m not close to done, I’m going to sleep tonight”?

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off.
