Short YouTube #shorts by Jacqueline Elliott offering personal advice on living without guilt while balancing work and family. Elliott emphasizes being fully present when with her children (e.g., putting her phone down), being intentional with limited time, rejecting the cultural binary that you must excel at work at the expense of family, and choosing to be an engaged partner who both supports and grows with her spouse rather than a passive ‘queen’ at home.

Chapters

A lot of people ask me, hey, Jacqueline, how do you do it? How do you take care of business? And how do you not feel guilty for working? Because I'm where my feet are. Because if my give my kids 20 minutes, I'm there for 20 minutes and I'm really there. I put my phone down. I'm not scrolling on social media while my kids are playing. I'm intentional with my time. But the world is telling you out there that you have to be good at one thing and not the other. You have to keep your family away. You have to go and kick ass at work and your family needs to be okay. I not want to be the queen at home and get whatever I wanted when Andy was working. I wanted to be the battlemate. I wanted to grow with him. I wanted to feel the grind. I wanted to support him. I wanted to hold him accountable. I wanted all of that.
