About this listen

Back to school season hits every August and September like a freight train. New schedules, earlier wake-ups, lunch packing, school supplies... suddenly you're drowning in chaos before you've even figured out what works.

Most parents take one of two approaches: either wing it completely or try to map out every detail before school starts. Both are recipes for disaster. There's a better way that doesn't involve losing your sanity or creating impossible expectations.

In this episode, I'm sharing the two specific strategies I use every single back to school season (and why the order matters). These aren't complicated systems or overwhelming checklists. They're simple, strategic approaches that help you create sustainable routines while staying calm during those crucial first two weeks.


In This Episode, I'll Cover:

  • The biggest mistake parents make in those first two weeks of school
  • Why most back to school routines fail before they even start
  • My secret weapon for staying calm during the morning chaos
  • How to collect the right data to set yourself up for success all year
  • Simple tweaks that make the difference between surviving and thriving
