Professional Women and Stress

4/27/2018

Comments

 
"A river cuts through a rock not because of its power, but its persistence." ~ James N. Watkins
Women have been put through the ringer for centuries. Yet, they have always risen to the challenge, coming out stronger each time. Collectively through history, women have gained ground, winning the vote, publishing books, raising families. Today, women are becoming powerful leaders and professionals who can pursue any dream - CEOs, Prime Ministers and Chancellors, Congresswomen, therapists, designers, managers, entreprenuers etc. At Golden Horizons, we are primarily run by women. We were founded by a woman, we are headed by a mother-daughter team, our office staff is all women, and our field team has many women (Here we insert a big thank you to all the men on our team as well. You are greatly valued.) We are proud to be professional women. But, with great power comes great responsibility, and with both can come great stress.

As women, we lead busy lives with multiple roles. We are mothers, wives, our kids chauffers, coaches,  volunteers, professionals, scientists, world leaders, caregivers. Our roles are rewarding, but non-the-less demanding. We experience the stress of our fast-paced work environments, we experience the stress of getting our kids where they need to be, we experience the stress of end-of-life situations for our loved ones as their relatives and their caregivers. We live the stress of balancing it all. So what is to be done? How can we better balance our lives and reduce our stress?

We have a fantastic resource here in "4 Ways Women Can Manage Work-Life Stress Like a BOSS and Get On to Living Their Amazing Life (Part 1)". Lauren Drago is a licensed psychotherapist with a practice, in Old Saybrook, CT, geared toward women. In her article, she shows us how we can reduce our stress using the easy to follow acronym, original to Lauren Drago: 
- B - Be aware of your needs.
- O - Open up about them.
- S - Share the load.
- S - Say your strengths and successes.
Remembering this can help you in every day situations to destress and know you, as a woman, have this. Click on the title above to read Lauren's full article. We highly recommend it.
