      I like a good work life balance, I work hard but I live 15 mins from work and have lots of spare time in evenings and weekends to do other things, like walking with my dog, cooking, travelling and sport.

      I try to keep things well separated so that life doens’t interfire with work and vice versa.
      Weekends are sacred and so my evenings. It is important to have time to dedicate to yourself, the people you love and the thingsyou like. It keeps you satisfied and it positively affects your work life too.

      At the moment it is because I’m quite busy. Its a skill you learn I think and it gets easier to take time out to look after yourself. I have certain hobbies I do regardless of how busy I am and I cycle to and from work so that I always have that time that is different from the rest of my day.
