“There are three things that I’m doing when it comes to self-care,” Kryst said. “No. 1, I try to set a regular time for my alarm to go off every day at 6:45. I know I’m getting up and starting my day.

“Two, I try to set very clear boundaries, so even though I’m home and I have my computer, my phone with me, I’m done answering emails at 6 o’clock, I’m not answering messages. It’s over.”

Third, she said, “I have a regular exercise program that keeps my body healthy and my mind sharp.”
