Welcome to Working Women’s Guide. Today, I’m diving straight into something most of us are challenged by: work-life balance. More specifically, how working mothers like you can set practical boundaries and reclaim your energy, time, and—most importantly—your sense of self. If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on empty, constantly caught between the needs of your workplace and your family, let’s talk about the real steps you can take, starting now.
First: create a schedule and stick to it. I’m talking about more than a calendar filled with meetings and soccer practices—set clear work hours, like “I’m available from 8 to 4” and keep them sacred. Communicate these hours to your manager, your team, and even your children. When your workday ends, shut that laptop and walk away. This is your first boundary.
Second, say no. I know, easier said than done, but here’s your permission slip: you do not need to attend every optional work call, sign up for every bake sale, or answer every late-night email. Each “no” is a “yes” for your well-being.
Third tip: make use of technology. Set your phone or Slack on “Do Not Disturb” after work hours. Remove work apps from your personal devices. It’s not about being less committed—it’s about protecting your space.
Fourth, delegate wherever you can. Are you the only one making dinner? Can your partner or kids help clean up? At work, is there a task you can hand to a colleague who’s ready to step up? Delegate, delegate, delegate.
Number five: take real breaks. Actually step away, even if just for ten minutes. Drink your coffee while looking out the window, not at your inbox. These short respites can restore clarity and patience.
Sixth tip: visibly block family events and personal time on your calendar. Whether it’s Maya’s recital or a solo walk, mark it as busy. Treat these appointments with the same respect as a client meeting.
Seventh, communicate boundaries assertively. Use “I” statements: “I need to be offline after 5 p.m. to spend time with my family.” Giving context helps others understand, and offering a compromise when possible can ease the conversation.
Number eight: separate spaces. If you work from home, establish a physical boundary—even if it’s just a corner of your living room. When you leave that space, you’re off-duty, for real.
Ninth: don’t apologize for needing time for yourself. Your needs are valid. Take that walk, schedule the yoga class, read that book—whatever fills your cup.
And last, let go of guilt. No one can do everything, all the time. Celebrate what you achieve, and remember, you are setting an empowered example for everyone around you—your kids, your coworkers, and yes, yourself.
Setting boundaries isn’t about shutting people out. It’s about including yourself in your list of priorities. And that is the real power move.
