How I Balance SPORTS with a CORPORATE JOB

So… can you do both? The answer is yes you can with a lot discipline, grit and time management skills!
This topic is been the NUMBER ONE most requested video topic from you all and that is how I manage BOTH a competitive figure skating career with my professional corporate career of being a management consultant.
Although this speaks to my experience as a competitive figure skater and a former competitive volleyball player, hoping this video can help athletes from all ages, backgrounds and sports in balancing their sport with a corporate job.
There is so much more to “adulthood” that our corporate jobs can offer- so make the most of it!

I can totally understand the everything you’re saying, but to have the actual motivation to balance a physically taxing sport and a mentally taxing job… I could never 😅 Hats off to you! So much respect for your discipline and even stamina!!!

[@ChristineWong]

I totally think that communicating and advocating for yourself is SOOOOOOO important. I know people in consulting who get their time abused because they don’t simply set boundaries.

[@cathydingg]

Thank you Christine!! And agree with everything you said ❤❤

[@redblugranada]

the timeboxing and quadrant strategies seem super helpful.. definitely have to try them. thanks for this!

[@stevie6900]

i appreciate your channel so much, you’re an inspiration! i find myself limiting my own opportunities with mental blocks but your videos show me that my life won’t just end once i have an established career. makes me feel like i can breathe again, lol!

[@cathydingg]

Thank you for the kind note!! Whatever personal journey you are on- you can do it! You got this 💪🏼

[@imasleepyburrito]

Love the reframing of the 4 quadrants and the actions that went along with it! Also, I totally agree with you that there should be one more thing other than your job/career in quadrant one. It really does make me feel like a more whole human who is living life rather than just existing.

[@cathydingg]

Agreed! I think I'm so much more fulfilled not just pigeon hole-ing myself into an identity of a corporate employee.

[@letscirclebackgames]

Your commitment and motivation to pursue your outside of work passions is inspirational!! A few months ago I also watched a video I think on the CNBC make it channel (?) about a guy working a full time corporate job while doing olympic training and your video reminded me of it

[@cathydingg]

Thank you so much! Appreciate the kind note!

[@lonahbee]

thank you for answering my question - I actually used the time-boxing technique at work and found it super useful!! I’m currently juggling a lot too and find your motivation & commitment really inspiring 💖

[@cathydingg]

Thank you so much and of course! Hope it was helpful (:

[@CaraMarie13]

My job tells us to use our own time to take the continuing education classes needed to maintain the license they require. I'd like to see their faces if I told them I wanted to adjust my schedule to practice ice skating.

[@cathydingg]

Truly feel you- corporate jobs be tough and demanding ):

[@Rebecca-bq4ez]

The advice given is applicable to everyone. Boundaries and time management for the win!

[@Amanda.Archer]

I'm definitely going to fill out my own quadrant, thanks for sharing!

[@cathydingg]

Of course! Good luck and hope it helps! ❤
