Summer’s coming, which means it’s time to start asking some questions. Not the “what camps should we sign up for?” kind, but the deeper ones that help you create a summer rhythm that actually serves your family (and doesn’t leave you burned out by mid-June.)
In this week’s episode, I’m sharing eight questions I’m working through right now as we prepare for summer in our home – questions that help me make intentional choices before things get busy.
In this episode I share:
- How I start thinking about summer (before the calendar fills up)
- The question that helps me avoid comparison traps
- How collaborating with your kids helps create a summer that works for everyone
- And how to work with your current circumstances instead of fighting them
Whether you’ve got big changes coming, are craving more simplicity, or just want a rhythm that feels good to everyone, this episode is here to help you start making intentional decisions for the months ahead.
