Thanks Amy! I truly enjoyed listening to your interview. You made some useful and practical point regarding how to establish a balance among home life, work and school. I particularly liked how you established set hours and designated place to accomplish your school work. I struggle with this issue; therefore, I will implement these suggestions.
