The article discusses the benefits of juggling multiple part-time jobs versus a full-time position. The author highlights that while it requires constant hustle, it allows for a flexible schedule that accommodates her children's needs. With her husband’s stable income covering essential bills, she can pursue various side jobs, including writing and property management, to afford family extras like travel and entertainment. Despite the challenges, the author finds fulfillment in her freelance writing, emphasizing that traditional full-time employment didn't align with her lifestyle and family priorities.
Working a full-time job didn't work for me. I felt like the house was never clean, I was tired all the time, and I never had time for my friends.
I can work around my kids' appointments and extracurriculars, which is important to me.
Writing is my passion, and I've been doing freelance work for about six years. This is my favorite side job; I love getting my ideas out into the world.
My family is lucky; my husband has a great job, and we can pay the bills with his salary alone. But I didn't want to give up the extras.
