Based in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), these strategies won’t create more hours in the day, but they can shift how we label our experiences, revise the stories we tell ourselves about working and parenting, and recognize the value we get from each role.\n\nDiffering values and commitments pull working parents in opposite directions and the social supports families desperately need are lacking. Yet even with these very real challenges, we can find more peace and less stress.\n\nSome of these strategies include:\n\nGetting clear on our values and using these to help us make what often feel like no-win choices around time and resources Practicing mindfulness in both parenting and working Subtracting less meaningful obligations from our lives\n\nThese steps can help you crush both roles, with examples from the author’s research that show families of many shapes and backgrounds.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1611809657\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1611809657.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Schonbrun, Yael\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
