Because the truth is, if work is going well, somebody else is taking care of the kids. And if You're in a high point with your kids.
The work is shoved to the side. So you can't be equally good at them at the exact same time. And you have to allow for that give and take, but then also replenish the other things.

You know, when am I really, really at my happiest? And it's when I feel like things are going well with my kids. I've got them in a good place and they're feeling understood.
