Description

In this week's episode of the podcast, I’m diving into the chaos of back-to-school season and sharing my best tips for making it feel calmer, smoother, and a whole lot less overwhelming. If the early mornings, afterschool shuffle, endless forms, and general “why does this feel so hard?!” vibe have you worn out already, this episode will help you reset. Think of it like your survival guide for fall transitions—so you can show up with more calm, space, and control during one of the busiest times of the year.  

Topics in this episode:

  • Why transitions are hard for both kids and moms (and how to expect big emotions). 
  • How to define success for the back-to-school season—on your terms. 
  • The power of choosing what to lean into and what to let go of right now. 
  • Practical ways to distribute the mental load with your partner. 
  • Building in buffer + recovery time so you feel more grounded and less frantic.
