EMR Program Co-Lead, Mother, Triathlete

<p>“You’ve got to carve out time for yourself. I’m up early to get my run, bike, or swim in. Then I can focus on work during the day and my family in the evenings. The extras – like training for a marathon, competing in a triathlon, or coaching my daughter’s soccer team – are things that keep me grounded. Sometimes as a mom – a parent – you can feel guilty, but it’s important to take care of yourself before you can take care of other people. I think that’s the key.”</p>
