How to support wife with toddlers while running a business full time
Hi, Im new to this subreddit so I hope I'm following all of your rules but I(30M) and my wife (31F) just had our second baby. hes now 7 weeks and our first son is 3 years.
We're fully exhausted thanks to the newborn stage and trying to survive. Meanwhile I am a full time in-home personal trainer running my own business (which is doing well but never seemingly well enough to get ahead). and my wife works 3 12-hour shifts per week.
My problem is that over the past few weeks and a number of times over the past 3 years my wife has called me in distress with something along the lines of 'I NEED YOU TO COME HOME NOW I'M OVERWHELMED AND NEED YOUR HELP!!!'
Me being the good husband I try to be, I then have to cancel however many sessions (losing income) to support my overwhelmed wife... This week however I said no. I continued training my sessions, working a ton of hours and securing the bag 💰💰.
i know Im going to have this problem 1000 more times over the foreseeable future and wanted to know what you guys think I can do to help alleviate the stress from her, while continuing to put my energy into growing my business.
