Lately, I’ve been juggling my passion for streaming with my demanding job as a structural engineer, and I’m curious how others manage to keep a healthy social life in the mix. Streaming feels like a great way to unwind and connect with people, but between long work hours and squeezing in time for paleontology hobbies, my offline social interactions sometimes take a hit.
For those of you who stream regularly, how do you strike a balance? Do you schedule streaming sessions around social commitments, or have you found ways to merge the two like streaming with friends or hosting watch parties? I’d love to hear what’s worked for you or any tips for keeping things balanced without burning out.
Also, if anyone else here is in a similarly time-intensive career, how do you carve out space for both streaming and real-life connections? It’s a tricky puzzle, and I’m all ears for creative solutions!
