How to Balance Career and Family?
I have 8 years of experience across customer service, digital marketing analytics, backend operations, and product management. I’m skilled in visualization tools, basic SQL, and Excel. Currently, I work as a Business Analyst for a product-based company, earning 25 LPA.
Personally, I recently got married, and we’re expecting twins. As the only child, my parents, who live in Kolkata, are at an age where they need support and can't manage on their own. My wife has been promoted and moved to Bangalore, while I’m based in Hyderabad. I’ve also recently bought a house, and managing households across three cities is overwhelming.
The constant travel is affecting my savings, and I’m struggling to find time to upskill. With responsibilities for my parents, growing family, and future savings, I feel lost and uncertain about my next career move. I’d appreciate any advice on balancing these priorities and ensuring financial stability for the future.

With responsibilities in multiple cities, have you considered remote-friendly or hybrid roles that can give you location flexibility?

@widemermaid I am currently in a hybrid work model hence I am able to travel twice in a month.

Since travel is draining your savings, would relocating to a single city (maybe Bangalore, where your wife is) be feasible in the long term?

Your career is already well-established! Right now, instead of thinking about the next move, maybe focus on work-life balance. Stability will help you make better long-term decisions.

Think of this as a short-term challenge. Once the twins are a little older, and parents are settled, you can reassess your career without so much stress.
