Show Notes
There's something about back to school that hits different, even when you're not the one walking through the school doors. Our kids get the fresh notebooks, the new outfit, the clean slate. We just... keep working. In this episode, I'm talking about how to use that back-to-school energy for yourself this fall!
I'm sharing why I wait to make changes until after the first week of school, how I'm using the concept of essentialism to choose just a few priorities for this season instead of trying to do it all, and the exact three things I'm focusing on this fall in my home, my business, and beyond. If you've been waiting for the "right" moment to pick something back up or start something new, this is it.
Listen in for a practical way to think about seasonal resets, how to narrow your focus without the guilt, and why working moms especially need to give themselves a fresh start every now and then, not just once a year.

Working moms today spend more time with their kids than stay-at-home moms did a generation ago, while men's time on housework has barely changed. No wonder so many of us are exhausted.
From now until the end of the year we add a whole second list on top of everything else and just expect that we'll somehow fit it all in. It's no wonder working moms feel exhausted by the new year!
What if the fight about the dishwasher was never about the dishwasher? Working motherhood is hard, and when you're carrying more than your fair share of the mental load, it's easy to say "I feel like I'm doing everything and you're doing nothing," an argument you've had many times before.
If you've ever tried time blocking and thought "this doesn't work for me", this episode is for you.
Working motherhood is hard, and most of us believe that if we just got through the list, we'd finally feel calm. But what if your to-do list isn't the reason you feel overwhelmed?
