                                                                             NBCU International

                                                                             8:30 a.m. Take our daily dose of vitamins, make breakfast and
                                                                             prepare for my weekly 1:1 meetings with my direct reports, while
                                                                             Elise begins math homework online.


                                                                             10:00 a.m. Take a break for a mid-morning healthy snack with
                                                                             Elise, and then continue with my third 1:1 meeting of the day, while
                                                                             answering emails from the Operations, Programming, Creative and
                                                                             Sales teams.


                                                                             12:30 p.m. It’s lunch time! I really am starting to appreciate this
                                                                             time with my daughter, since it’s not something we get to do often
                                                                             during the week in our normal routine. Once we are done, I make
                                                                             sure to put together some sight word exercises, painting or Lego
                                                                             activities for her, then go back to work.


                                                                             4:00 p.m. Pull ratings and commercial consumption reports to
                                                                             check the trends, while Elise signs on to her dance lessons.


                                                                             6:00 p.m. Time to take our daily walk around the neighborhood,
                                                                             make pizza for dinner and then take Elise a bath!


                                                                             8:30 p.m. Elise goes to bed and I finally get some “me” time.
                                                                             Although before I know it, it’s time to sleep and start over again!
