Adunni Ade Talks On The Approach She Uses To Balance Her Demanding Career With Her Parenting Responsibilities

Nollywood actress, Adunni Ade has shared an insights on how she juggles her life as a single parent and pursuing her professional ambitions.

In a recent interview with Hip TV Trending, the single mum highlighted the need for balance, noting that she places her children’s needs ahead of her professional goals.

The mother of two explained,

“Balancing your life is something you have to do as a parent, there is no thinking. You have to be able to provide and cater to your children as a parent no matter what industry you find yourself. Whether you’re a doctor or an actor or an architect…you just have to find that balance.”

She stressed that while her career is important to her, her children always take precedence over it. According to her, she carefully schedules projects to ensure she attends significant school events and that she is present for her kids.

In her words:

“My kids will always come first so I’m very careful with how I schedule projects. I do not miss anything that has to do with their schooling; if it’s an open day, visiting day, a program or even inter-house sports, I will be there.

My kids will always have that attention from me to be present and when it comes to work, work will attend to itself.”
