Like most women, I strive to keep a fair number of balls in the air – Mom to two busy teens, wife, business owner, spokesperson, blogger, friend, mentor, and more. I’ve also found that as my business grows and my daughter and son gain more independence – one’s in college, the other begins next year – I now keep an almost breakneck travel schedule, with cross-country media tours, industry conferences and speaking gigs, and international meetings and events. After a while, this hectic pace takes a toll, and it becomes harder to bounce back and get my bearings after a particularly grueling spate of travel. I’ve discovered over the past few months, however, that if I’m to keep up this frenetic schedule, I need to take care of myself – which means I need to keep up my twice-weekly sessions with my trainer, eat healthy foods, get enough sleep, and listen to my body if I need to cut back and get even more rest.
