As I got ready to welcome our fifth baby, I kept coming back to one question:

What would this look like if it were awesome?

Instead of bracing for survival mode, I asked better questions and came up with simple, practical solutions to make this postpartum season calmer and more enjoyable.

In this episode, I’m sharing the four things I focused on during pregnancy to get ready, plus how you can apply these same principles to any survival season in your life.

You’ll hear:

  • The mindset shift that helped me stop dreading survival mode
  • What I prepared (and what I didn’t) to make meals easier
  • The simple system I created to keeps kids happy and busy
  • One powerful question to help you set up your own support systems

Whether you’re heading into a big transition or just want to feel more supported in daily life, this episode is full of ideas you can make your own.
