Enabling someone else to access my iCloud email, contacts, iCal and some files

Hi, I work for myself and have an assistant who needs access as above. How can I enable this without sharing my Apple ID and password?

Can I set up another Apple account for her to use? Would I also be able to be logged into my original account at the same time as her and would I be able to swap easily between accounts? I’d still need to access the iCal, the email and the files. Thank you

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.7

You can share a calendar if you both have an Apple Account:

You can also share files:

Contacts are trickier. You can export your entire contact list and send it to someone. However, that won't keep it updated. You'd have to that manually.
