Running a business is hard. Raising a family is harder. Doing both at the same time? That’s chaos - and no one really tells you how messy it gets.

In this episode of Unfiltered Business, Shehan shares:

  • The honest reality of trying to be a present dad and an ambitious business owner
  • How guilt, exhaustion, and mental load creep into both worlds
  • Why work-life balance is mostly a myth — and what he tries to focus on instead

If you’ve ever found yourself replying to client emails while making your kid’s lunch… or missing a bedtime because you’re finishing a proposal… this one’s for you.

It’s not a productivity hack episode. It’s not a parenting guide. It’s a raw, 5-minute reflection on what happens when your business goals and your family life are pulling in opposite directions  and how to keep showing up for both without burning out completely.

For business owners, parents, and anyone who’s ever felt like they’re failing at both.
