The biggest change is usually in her priorities.

When I got married, I had to find a balance between my responsibilities at work and my duties as a wife. I couldn’t do overtime as often as I used to, for example, because I now had someone waiting for me at home.

Sometimes, other women even have to consider taking a different career path or quitting their jobs altogether after getting married, especially if they get pregnant.

But that’s usually up to the woman herself. I’ve been lucky enough to still be able to juggle both aspects of my life. Since I have a husband who remains as supportive as ever, I can be both a loving spouse and a strong, independent woman with a thriving career.

It’s possible to manage all the changes successfully, as long as you marry the right person who will love you and let you achieve your dreams in life.
