Real talk: you need to figure out your priorities. Either your friends and family are a support system that helps you accomplish something meaningful and important in your career, or work is a thing you happen to do that pays the bills so you can have fulfilling personal relationships.

Neither choice is necessarily better. It's extraordinarily difficult to prioritize both - the entire point of a priority is to tell you what isn't important. I'm personally biased towards friends and family, but if you have an important mission to accomplish, go for it.
