So for me having a good work life personal life balance particularly means ensuring that I have a good compartmentalization between my work life and my personal life primarily I do that by making sure that when I'm working I really commit to working and I'm not trying to balance too many things at the same time and then when I'm in my personal life really separating from work and making sure that I'm able to commit to my personal time and have my me time. Sometimes just running, seeing my friends, going for walks, but when I'm in it, I'm really running to run. I'm not thinking about work. I'm with my friends, I'm not thinking about work. And then when I'm working, I'm focused on work. I think that at Bellsouth. You have the really the, the, the ability to control your own schedule because a lot of the work that you do, you have to own it and be accountable for it. But that also means making sure that the way you go about it is, is in a way that fits your schedule. So, you know, I know that I have, you know, XYZ things to do for work, but I can also set some time to play flag football or or read or do any sort of activities that are leisurely for me and does help me kind of unwind and in in my my day-to-day. So given. Given that nature of how we go about this work, you have that ability to control that for yourself. Yeah, I think for myself, work life balance has always been involved with fitness myself. I've always seen that. Sports Fitnesses Mood Booster. It's a productivity booster. Helps me sleep better and ultimately just perform better at work and in my personal life. I'll Valsalva kind of supports this best is that there are a lot of initiatives on a sports and fitness front. So we have a lot of in office sports activities. We try to get everyone involved and I think it plays well into kind of addressing mental health, mental well-being. You know, it kind of creates a very supportive and productive environment. I maintain a healthy work life balance and keep my mental health in check by spending time with my family. I have a young son, so spending time with him as of utmost importance. Working out is also something that I do to keep my mental health and check. It recharges my batteries and gives me that extra boost of energy that I need to be more present in my personal life as well as my. Life at work at Bellsouth, which the mental health and, and you know, work life balance kind of means different things to different people. For me, it's boundaries, setting boundaries to really make sure that we have set aside work time and personal time. And I make it a point to make sure that the work time doesn't impede too much on my personal time. Just learn to say no. I know we have a difficulty doing that at times. It's easier said than done. I would tell my team, I remind my team all the time is to kind of leverage the team, right. I understand that you have a. A network of individuals that are working alongside you, whether remotely or in the office that are that are there to kind of support you on the days that are a little bit harder to make them a little bit easier.
