Practicing That Mother-Scholar Lifestyle

IMG_20180312_111150_462.jpg

Sometimes when you're balancing so much you wonder if you are not putting more effort into things that you should. For me, when I'm working on my dissertation or my fitness biz I wonder if instead I should be spending time with Elle. But when I'm playing with Elle, I wonder how I can show her the importance of balancing life. How do you show your love for her but also your love for yourself so that she knows that in her future she can balance all the things she loves too? So I make sure that when I'm working on my dissertation or checking in with clients, I am hyper focused on just that and when I'm playing with Elle, I am hyper focused on just her. I think that's the best way to balance all the things in life that I love while also having our time together be more focused on quality than quantity. I think that's what mother-scholars are all about. #motherscholar #momlife
