Will life events shape my priorities?

Everyone has their own personal journey and there's never this right answer or wrong answer. For me, it's been more about circumstance and what point in my life I've been at, which has defined which way I've gone. For instance, big things that happen in life, like having kids, suddenly adds a complete other dimension. Suddenly you have maybe a list of values that you followed that you thought were what was really important to you. Then, suddenly, they change. There might be various reasons why that happens. Then you almost have to have a reset. That was quite a big one for me. Obviously I went from working in big corporates, doing very long hours, lots of travel, really exciting stuff that I really enjoyed.

After I became a mum, I decided actually I don't want to be spending all my time in other countries. I want to actually be able to get that work/life balance. Something which is a real challenge.
