How to make the most of having ‘more time’

In this episode, Frankie Tortora and Steve Folland have a chat in response to a question from Louise Jenkins who supports women with their transition into motherhood, and develops and facilitates workshops in partnership with organisations working to end violence against women and girls.

Louise says: 

“Hi Frankie & Steve,

With Wildling now at school, technically I have ‘more time’ available to me spread out over a full week.

*Chokes on tea because we all know ‘more time’ is bullsh*t — have you seen the amount of school-related admin there is?!*

Anyway. So far so good. But I need help managing this newfound time, and how to make the ‘best’ of it I suppose? I’m battling with setting boundaries, and how to approach and commit to new or potential partners/clients, as well as finding space for MYSELF too.

I’m slowly finding a groove. But would love to know how you and everybody in DIFTK found this shift?

Thanks! Louise”
