Parenting and Working - The Pause that Refreshes?

Life satisfaction in work and parenting can be an experience where one aspect nourishes the other to make a fantastic whole.

Sometimes two opposing worlds that intersect, for example work and family, can be an amazing opportunity for those two aspects to nourish and support the other.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg during her studies at Harvard in the 1950’s, experienced a sudden life change that she was not expecting. Her husband, also on the same law program of mainly male students, began suffering a terminal form of aggressive cancer. Suddenly Ruth was juggling supervising her husband Marty’s coursework whilst he remained enrolled, caring for her husband’s illness journey, raising a young daughter, and maintaining her own studies.
