Hi, I'm Laura Vandercam. I'm a mother of five, an author, journalist, and speaker.

And I'm Sarah Hart Unger, a mother of three, practicing physician, writer, and course creator.

We are two working parents who love our careers and our families.

On the Best of Both Worlds Podcast each week, we share stories of how real women manage work, family, and time for fun.

From figuring out child care to mapping out long-term career

goals, we want you to get the most out of life.

Listen to Best of Both Worlds every Tuesday on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to Before Breakfast, a production of I Heart Radio.

Good morning. This is Radio.

Good morning.

This is Laura.

Welcome to the Before Breakfast Podcast.

Today's tip is that during times when you are likely to be interrupted, choose work that is interruptable.

We all have some sorts of work that are easier to pause and pick back up than others.

So make smart choices for times when you will experience interruptions

and you will avoid frustration

and probably get more done.

So my weekday mornings are fairly drawn out.

I have five kids at four different schools with different start times.

I'm usually not managing all of this on my own,

but even with a husband and child care help,

I know that until everyone is out of the house, I am not going to have complete quiet.
