The Juggling Act - Balancing Two Full-Time Jobs: Educational Assistant by Day, Distant Energy Healer by Night
Shaina Tranquilino
January 9, 2024
In today's fast-paced world, many individuals find themselves taking on multiple roles and responsibilities to make ends meet or pursue their passions. One such challenging scenario is working two full-time jobs simultaneously. As an educational assistant during the day and a distant energy healer by night, my life has become an intricate balancing act that requires dedication, time management, and unwavering passion. In this blog post, I will take you through the journey of navigating both worlds and shedding light on the unique experiences and challenges it brings. 1. A Day in the Life as an Educational Assistant: My daytime job as an educational assistant provides me with opportunities to make a positive impact on students' lives. From assisting teachers in lesson planning to supporting students with special needs, every day presents new challenges and rewards. Building rapport with students, making sure their needs are met, fostering a nurturing environment, and ensuring their academic success are at the core of my role. 2. Transitioning into the World of Energy Healing: As daylight fades away, I embark on my second full-time job – distant energy healing. This realm allows me to tap into the spiritual energies that connect us all and offer healing from afar. Through various practices like Reiki or meditation, I channel positive vibes towards those seeking solace or relief from physical ailments or emotional distress. Being able to help others heal is immensely gratifying. 3. Challenges Faced: Balancing two full-time jobs comes with its share of hurdles. Time management becomes crucial when trying to excel in both professions without compromising quality or personal well-being. Fatigue can set in after long days at work followed by late-night healing sessions; self-care becomes paramount for maintaining productivity and avoiding burnout. 4. Benefits of Dual Roles: Despite the challenges, there are numerous benefits to embracing dual roles in different fields. Firstly, both jobs provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment, allowing me to make a difference in the lives of others through education and healing. Secondly, having diverse professional experiences broadens my perspectives and enhances personal growth. Lastly, financial stability is another significant advantage of working multiple jobs. 5. The Importance of Boundaries: Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is crucial when juggling two full-time jobs. Establishing boundaries helps prevent exhaustion and ensures sufficient time for personal life, relationships, and self-care activities. Prioritizing rest, setting realistic expectations, and seeking support from loved ones are essential components in managing this delicate equilibrium. 6. Finding Inspiration in Both Roles: Interestingly, my educational assistant job often influences my distant energy healing practice and vice versa. Witnessing the resilience and determination of students at school inspires me to bring that same strength into my healing sessions. Similarly, the empathy cultivated as an energy healer fosters a deeper understanding of students' needs during my day job. Working two full-time jobs as an educational assistant by day and a distant energy healer by night may seem challenging on paper; however, it provides unique opportunities for personal growth, fulfillment, and making a positive impact in people's lives. Successfully navigating this juggling act requires effective time management, strong boundaries, self-care practices, and unwavering passion for both professions. Embracing these challenges with dedication allows me to experience the joys that come with dual roles while continuously growing personally and professionally. Remember: No matter how busy life gets or how many roles we take on, following our passions can lead us down unexpected paths towards personal fulfillment and success!

Heya! Sorry it’s late (as usual) but here it is! My piece for BillDip Secret Santa for @pchelaus .. hope you like my take on “Cosmic horror beyond our comprehension Bill taking a liking to flattered but confused Dipper.” !
I had a lot of fun with what features to add to give the whole ‘cosmic horror’ feel but you can never go wrong with some star speckled tentacles and extra sets of eyes lol.
#I would have added the two extra sets of star speckled arms floating beside Bill#but I ran out of time and I was already late so ..#. just imagine that he’s got them lol#Bill thinks he’s doing such a good job at looking human Lmaoo#he’s got arms! he’s got the legs! he’s even got the multiple eyes ! I don’t know what everyone’s screaming about?!#his more natural form is just entirely dark tentacles and arms and glowing eyes that’s bigger than a building#but it’s kinda hard to snuggle with his favourite human when he’s like this so#tiny form!#the face he’s hiding in Dippers hair is just a mass of inquisitive space tentacles#cause Bill can’t quite hold all his form in#essentially when he’s all excited to be juggling his Pinetree!#no mouth#Bill says mouths are stupid when you’ve got eyes and telepathy#art#billdip#billdip art#billdipss2023#billdip2023#billdipsecretsanta2023#gravity falls#bill cipher#dipper pines#aged up dipper pines#billdipss23

There will not be a single moment next week in which I’m not running around doing something
#full time studying / volunteering at the refugee center / volunteering at two clinics#literally ab to have a meeting ab shadowing a doctor who’s researching ftd dementia in like 50 minutes#organic chemistry research 5 days a week bc ur bitch is trying to get published#hitting the gym 6 days a week. I’ll probably have to move it to mornings soon#meal prep#trying to snag a lowkey part time job#trying to read 30 minutes before bed#somehow have 2 fit a social life into this#I’m excited bc I finally feel like my time budgeting abilities are being put to the test BUT holy fuck .#studying will be my no 1 priority always. literally catch me doing anki cards in any pocket of free time I have#but I better live up to the challenge of juggling everything else too#ik I got this. and these are all things im choosing to do. not things I have to do#and I love being busy so it’ll be so fun#just had to be in awe for a second bc I used to admire girls who’re like this. and I am officially about to be one of them#p

How do you manage to take care of all those animals and still have time to do color quest? This may be the half time day job in me talking but I feel like I don't have time to do any of my hobbies with the 6 animals I have
I try my hardest to make some time.
The bird pens are set up so that, aside from daily feeding, and cleaning of the geeses water and pool, they do not need to be heavily maintained. I clean out their runs and pens more often in the wetter months, so I have less time in the fall and spring... Those days I can be outside for a couple hours at least. But the daily tasks don't take more than maybe 20 minutes. Sunny days I let them free range so I have to supervise because of eagles and hawks, so that can take another couple hours out of my day.
But I have that system, so I often have a lot of time inside. I have a dog to walk and feed, I spend at least a couple of hours in the kitchen cleaning and making food throughout the day, I have other stuff to manage in the house, I do commission work and I help my husband with projects for his haunted house. I'm actually very behind on some smaller things I need to take care of, but that's life, because somewhere I need to stop and indulge in my hobbies, lol.
Almost every drawing you see from me, are all that I have time to do. There is very little in terms of drawings that go unshared, so you guys basically get every morsel I have time to produce. I'm lucky, in a way, that I spent my time growing up learning how to draw fast, otherwise I'd never get anything done.
One factor in having just enough time to doodle or write a little, is that my work is commission work and I can dictate how much free time I have, basically. The other factor is that my husband makes enough to support us both right now. If I had a job outside of the house, I would probably not have time for CQ. That, or I wouldn't have time for healthy meals or keeping clean. Considering I have stomach disabilities, I'd rather eat well and sit clean than draw if it came down to it. Luckily I don't need to choose between those, at least not right now.
#i juggle my creative hobbies a lot#thats why you see some flux of drawing from me then like nothing for two weeks#cause during those times im writing or practicing instruments#i honestly feel very lucky to be where i am in life right now#so many people do not have the luxury to indulge in their hobbies at all#if i had an outside job honestly i dont know if i could even keep my birds#because some days they really do need hours of TLC

lineless doodle of Ophelia, who ascends into a Lunala at the end of her adventure with her team. She's always been prone to harmless-but-startling physical anomalies due to the nature of her "corrupted" magic (having been touched by Giratina's distortions), and it only gets more prevalent as she becomes stronger and can see further between dimensions and spacetime. sometimes your face leaks space goop for a bit. it's fine!
#ophelia#eye horror#lunala#pokemon gijinka#gijinka#art#this isn't the only way the anomalies manifest but it was the coolest one i could come up with a way to properly illustrate off the cuff#i'm juggling two jobs and a sinus infection right now let me tell you my brain is a fried egg

Listen, I wouldn't normally cite Cosmo as support for an argument, but I can't think of anything that sums up the dangers of the stay-at-home girlfriend/tradwife nonsense like this quote:
“If you give a man the power to feed you, he also has the power to starve you.”
#ladies no matter how good your relationship is PLEASE don't ever put yourself in a situation#where your partner is your only source of income and you have no bank account of your own and no means to support yourself#if you want to play history revisionist and pretend the 50s were the era of your pastoral suburban fantasy#and not full of reasons why shitty husbands kept ending up dead when women couldn't escape them through divorce#then that's your business#but for the love of all the suffragettes who fought for the rights you want to hand back over to some guy#please at least read this article and the warnings from ladies who did the stay-at-home girlfriend thing#and had to start over from scratch when things crashed and burned#it wouldn't take much for a woman to be completely trapped--especially if things keep going the way the gop wants#you give up your job to play tiktok housewife barbie for your man. he knocks you up. the relationship goes sour#a miscarriage could get you arrested and you can't get an abortion because you live in a red state#you can't move out with no job/income and definitely can't afford to juggle pregnancy expenses on your own. now what?#and this is not meant to be a 'men are trash' or 'being a stay-at-home mom is a prison' thing#there are a lot of good men in the world and for a lot of families having one stay-at-home parent#is actually more cost-effective than having two incomes and paying for daycare#but having financial autonomy is so so important#don't give that up for any relationship#financial abuse

Caricature based on one of my friends.
#my art#procreate#illustration digital#illustration art#artwork#illustration on tumblr#My asks open in two days!#Im super excited- I’m trying to warm up!#Im not sure how I feel about this design as a whole- but I’m glad I’m practicing rendering#Turns out that painting on top of the piece changes so much! And it’s easier than juggling a million layers#The person this is based on does a very endearing little pout and head tilt whenever they’re in thought#It reminds me of the way a dog looks up in loving thought of their owner#I’m not very good at drawing dogs so I chose a different animal…#I do wish I did a better job of capturing them in thought. It’s one of my favorite things about them.

Hi hi. Just letting you all know that I'm patient. Take your time. I understand that to function like a proper adult (which we all are) requires a degree of time away for other things that take priority. That should take priority.
I can wait. We all can wait. A partner's time is precious and I'm just grateful you all take the time to write with me when you can between the chaos that is life and work.
In the way of muse, I also understand it's fickle. I won't ever be offended to see you write with someone else when we have a lil thing going on. Considering the platform I came from, these things weren't a concept well understood, so I decided to say it here off the bat.
I and everyone else are not entitled to your time in a hobby.
#;ooc#almost 4am thoughts and just something i want to reassure#also i never slept beyond two hours. I've been quite ill#also the only reason i can be active as i am rn is because I'm working one job that's not content heavy on top of uni#once i start my second job in October.... boy juggling my time will be spicy.

You know things are chaotic again when I rarely post
#Juggling so much stuff again but good news I have finally finished knitting my first sock#I had two job interviews one of which said that I can start with them (but I think I am going to abstain)#And much more! At least my Italian is going well (I hope)
