Struggling with your work/life balance? The Giant Builders talks to personal development coach, Britton McDermott. The video talks about how to find a balance between your personal and professional lives.
Being a woman today is a challenge in itself. We are expected to be mother, daughter, sister, friend, lover, and professional all at once – and be GREAT in all of them.
But we are women, not octopi and sometimes, things fall through the cracks.
If you’re struggling to strike a proper work/life balance, then this is for you.
Continuing our commitment to offering relevant educational videos for the public, we at The Giant Builders announce our newest interview with Britton McDermott, a leadership coach for women. In the 16-minute video, McDermott talks about how women often feel that they have to be “everything” in order to feel “successful.”

She challenges this idea with her intensive one-on-one coaching for women. In the new interview with host, Lois Wyant, McDermott clarifies that her role as a leadership coach is to facilitate proper work/life balance for the modern woman. The goal, she says, is not to learn how to manage a haphazard lifestyle but to prioritize tasks so that these roles do not intersect.
Several studies suggest that women, particularly those who are married, struggle to find the proper balance between their personal and professional lives. Labeled as family-work conflict (FWC) by researchers, experts have found that women with a high FWC are more prone to depression, burn-out, or various other mental conditions.
Emerging data likewise has noted that the current health crisis, which has forced many professional women to work from home, has exacerbated levels of FWC. More women are reported to have experienced high levels of stress due to an unclear or non-existent delineation of roles.

McDermott adds that instead of removing non-essential tasks, many women attempt to juggle everything. She says that this stems from an underlying belief of worth and that every female should just “accept” that she has to play several roles all at once.

With her personal development coaching for women, McDermott helps you resolve your stress by showing you that it is PERFECTLY OKAY to rest and have “me” time. She says that too little value is placed on recreation – often considered as wasteful – that you do not take the time to recover from the daily hustle and bustle of work.
McDermott explains, "It's not always about how to fit in more stuff. It's taking away things that'll give you more time back."
Aside from all the roles that you play, remember your role as YOURSELF. Don’t lose yourself trying to be everything else.
