Over the past three months, I have implemented a change from working full-time, in substantial roles, whilst doing my best to balance being a solo parent. Since losing my mum in 2019 it has been quite a challenge to ensure my daughter receives what she needs to learn and grow and be nurtured.
My learning from working casual part-time hours is it has made a massive difference to my child who started high school this year. We have had significantly less pre-teen hormone fuelled moments, more quality and open communication and become even closer than we were before. It was absolutely the right change for our small family.
For me, having worked at a fast, and very full, pace for over 35 years I am learning how to slow down a bit but know I need to keep my brain active. This is why I enrolled in the Harvard Business Strategy course while making the transition.
Now I have successfully completed that I have more capacity to do more so if you have any casual, part-time or contract work I can assist with I’d love to hear from you! Those of you who know me know I work hard, like to keep busy and work quickly so you will get bang for your buck.
