How to Find Time for Yourself When You Have None
You can't 'find' time. You have to take it. Here's how to do that without burning your life down.
Stop planning. Start meeting up.

You don't have any. The advice 'find 30 minutes a day' is useless when there are no 30 minutes to find. The reframe: you have to claim time, not find it.
Three claim strategies
1. The protected hour
Pick one hour a week. Tell your partner. Put it in the calendar. Defend it like a work meeting. Even one protected hour a week compounds.
2. The trade
"You take the kids Saturday morning, I take them Sunday morning." Trades are easier than asking for favours.
3. The recurring outing
One evening a month, blocked forever, with friends. The recurring nature is what makes it sustainable — your partner knows it's coming, the kids know, you know.
Why monthly works better than weekly
A weekly commitment is hard to sustain through illness, work crises, school holidays. A monthly commitment is achievable forever.
Bloom's whole design is around this: one outing a month with your circle. Sustainable. Recurring. Yours.
