In addition to shining as a co-host of the Univisión Newscast, Ilia Calderón juggles being a stellar mom and spending quality time with her 6-year-old daughter Anna. "To dedicate time to Anna, as all working moms and dads do, you have to organize, you have to take the time," the Colombian journalist tells People en Español. “The time is not that it is there. I want to continue growing as a professional, I want my husband to continue growing as a professional as well. He likes his job, I like mine."
Having help at home and dividing housework with her husband Eugene Jang make the burden lighter. "Thank God we have a person who helps us with her in the afternoon because we both work in the afternoon, but it is organizing and knowing what your priority is," adds Calderón. “It is better for me to spend time with Anna than to take a nap. Organizing you find time for everything, for friends, to take her with her friends, to take her to parties. My husband Gene is a very involved man with Anna too. Sometimes he gets home first and is doing chores with her until he takes her to things that are more adventurous and dad and daughter's plans.”
Calderón knows that finding the perfect balance between being a mother, a wife and a professional is a matter of putting priorities in order every day. “It is difficult, but you find time for everything. You have to have priorities, he advises. “There are times when family is the most important thing but you also cannot neglect friends, the friends who are always there, your circle of support, the friends who are going to pick up your daughter when you had to travel for work and You ran into a difficulty or taking it to a birthday. You have to pay attention to everything: family, friends, yourself having a massage or having a glass of wine from time to time, reading a good book, you find space for everything and you have to organize, but you do may. We women are like that, we do everything and we get sick and continue standing!”
