You are a wonderful mother and a professional fitness competitor. What are your Top 5 Tips for managing personal and professional life?
Ms. Shannon Petralito:
Thank you so much! Being a parent is the most important job one could have! I appreciate the compliment!! I am proud of the little man we are raising!
Balancing professional life and personal life can be difficult !! Some of my top tips that help me manage both would be:
1. Setting a schedule!!! This is a must! Especially for me when I work from home. Writing out a schedule helps balance things a bit more! Block times off for all things in your day so you are not doing 5 things at once, yes this means schedule your laundry and cleaning too! You will be way more productive this way!!! Make a daily list of what needs to be done that day in order of priority & schedule it out!
2. Set standards & boundaries! For example, there are planned family days where I do not answer e-mails or messages. Uninterrupted time together is a priority for us as a family because our schedules can get crazy! On the flip side, when my clients need me I am there, I prioritize them on the days and hours I set for that. I do my best to not overlap the two, I am not saying it never happens but I try my best!
3. Take care of yourself!!! If you are running yourself into the ground and never catching a break or never taking time for yourself you will be less productive in both your personal and professional life!! You need to have a healthy balance!! This includes eating well, exercising and doing something nice for yourself!!
4. Learn your limits! It’s ok to say no if your spread thin!! It’s better to be respected for a job well done in life than be disrespected for being unreliable and making promises you can’t keep and disappointing people!
5. Respect family life just as much as professional life! This is a huge factor for me, I am very careful about what I share as a public figure. I do not offer excess details about my family, I do not post photos of myself that would be questionable as a mother and a wife and I do not share personal experiences that should be kept within our home, some things are sacred. This is the same respect I have for the people I work with, I do not openly share and repeat things about my clients unless they are in agreement with me doing so such as personal progress photos or personal transformation stories.
