Sleep when the newborn sleeps; the household and work stuff running through your mind isn’t as important as you think it is.

20 years from now, you won’t remember the project you were on deadline for, but you will remember the time with newborn you missed to do it. So do the newborn thing instead.

Set real boundaries early and stick to them, even if you feel guilt (we all feel guilt). Leave when you need to leave. People will figure it out. Our jobs take what they can take - you are in charge of where the line is.

This. And communicate those boundaries to your team. They will actually be better at holding you to them than you will. Don’t carry the weight of knowing you need to leave and hoping it just works out without having to say anything.

If you can’t breastfeed, don’t even worry about it. It’s fine. Really.

Your kids are learning from you, teaching them your work ethic and letting them see you succeed and thrive is important too

Yes, sleep when the baby sleeps. When they are awake, they need your energy, your attention. The other stuff will get done little by little. Don’t try to be perfect! Your house will never be clean enough or pretty enough or organized enough. Appreciate the beautiful chaos!

When you become a mom, you’re gifted with a new power that everyone in advertising fears and respects. Don’t be afraid to use it to build healthy boundaries between your family and work. Don’t be afraid to flex. I promise no one will dare to eff with you.

When to break-up with someone? I’ve been dating my gf for 6 years (2 long distance 1yr on a break and 3 living together. Nothing terrible about the relationship but I’m not happy and no longer feel in love. I’ve tried working it out but haven’t felt the relationship has gotten any better. I feel at this point the best thing to do for both of us is split (she shouldn’t be with someone that can’t love her fully). So here’s the options continued…

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc
