Transitions between roles and moments are key to being present.
The transition from work mode to home mode isn't always easy. I remember a Mad Men episode where Don Draper came in the house and walked by Betty's friends. She exclaimed, "It takes him about 45 minutes to transition". I'm sure I'm remembering some of that wording incorrectly but the problem is real. And I don't have 45 minutes.
It's really important you learn how to switch moments and roles with effectiveness and stop dragging parts into other parts. Your life partner is talking to you while you replay the meeting with your business partner. Or you're in a meeting at work thinking about the fight at home. 😖

I've got a resource coming out soon that I've worked really hard on this last year. It will help you in all the transitions big and small.
How are your transitions?
