WHEN THE FRONTLINE FOLLOWS YOU HOME

Being a Frontline Worker doesn't shield you from life's challenges.

Frontline workers not only face intense pressure on the job, but many also return home to personal challenges that demand just as much energy and attention.

After long shifts or missions filled with emotional labour, physical strain, or high-stakes decisions, they often come home to responsibilities like caring for children, supporting a partner, managing household tasks, or dealing with financial stress.

The constant pull between work and home can lead to exhaustion, guilt, or feeling like there's never enough time or energy to go around.

This juggling act can leave frontline workers feeling stretched thin, unsupported, and disconnected from their own needs.Your work may be demanding, but don't neglect personal issues or your own well-being.

Make sure you:

Don't ignore issues at home; they matter.

Prioritise time with family and friends.

Take care of yourself; self-kindness is crucial.

And remember:

You may not be indispensable at work, but you are at home.
