Responses: A Time When You Realized You Were Juggling Too Much

The Takeaway

All this week, as part of our series “Breaking the Glass Ceiling in Male-Dominated Fields,” we’ve heard from women who have broken into predominately male occupations and  risen to the top. They shared their lessons on how to juggle their demanding jobs and their family lives. We asked all of them and our listeners the same question: What is a moment that caused you to realize you were simply juggling too much between your job, your family and your personal life?
