I found this good description of prioritizing the multiple roles one has to juggle as a parent, partner, & lab head. Determining which 'balls' are rubber, glass, or wood *beforehand* provides an action plan for when balls (inevitably) start dropping: olivemecounseling.com/blog/juggling

ISO advice: what do y'all do when experiencing crippling imposter syndrome?
Like, I KNOW that I am capable, knowledgable, etc. but imposter syndrome got a hold of my brain and locked it and I can't seem to break through it.

Birth centers made CNN today - with focus on equity and consumer experience. let’s hope the focus on a regulatory barrier- a certificate of need - which NJ has- and is a huge barrier to increasing number of birth centers is examined and repealed.

Being the 1st in your family to go to college is a huge accomplishment & you must be proud of it.
Here I share with you some of the lessons I learned on my path from first-gen student to an academic leadership role.

The first-gen struggle is real 😓 never really had the language to explain how/why but the lack of cultural capital is it. 🎯
@_abuelbanat My parents were college educated outside the US, and I definitely struggled to figure out the US system. However, I still had access to cultural capital and social networks conferred by parental education. It’s nowhere near the same as coming from a truly first-gen household.

THIS! And all of that on top of the million things that require my attention in my personal life (kids, husband, personal interests, family, health/self care etc.)😵💫 #OneDayAtATime learning (the hard way 🥴) the importance of setting boundaries.
The hardest part of #NewPI life 4 me is focusing on 1 task at a time… literally EVERYTHING is important, and it’s quite overwhelming. Add a lil ADHD, a smidge of anxiety, and a dash of depression, the struggle is too real…However, I wouldn’t want to be doing anything else 😩…

Last night I had to make the heartbreaking decision to have my dog put to sleep. Moxie was a rescue with a horrible past of abuse but has the biggest heart. She has been with me for the past 11 years and helped me through A LOT. I’m glad my kids got to know her love too. 😭💔
