A 3-Stage Plan for Moms to Stop Dreading Summer with Erin Port

from Work + Life Harmony | Time Management, Organization and Planning for Overwhelmed Women

I am always so ready for it to come, ready to ditch the alarm clocks and the get-ready-for-school morning routine, ready for more freedom and less structure. And then halfway through I find myself craving the structure back, caught in this endless tug of war between still having a company to run, wanting time for myself, and also actually enjoying summer with my daughter.I brought Erin Port on the show because she has a framework for summer that I think every mom needs to hear. She breaks the season into three distinct stages, each with its own rhythm and intention, and we get into exactly how to plan for each one so you're not white-knuckling it from June through August.In This Episode, You'll Discover:Why the transition from May into June is harder than it should be, and the simple "kickoff week" idea Erin uses to ease her family in without the frictionHow a "what matters" list with your kids can replace the overwhelming bucket list that leaves you feeling like you failed the summerA strategy to protect the end of summer so your whole family lands in September without running on emptyConnect with Erin:www.simplepurposefulliving.comwww.instagram.com/simplepurposefullivingwww.facebook.com/simplepurposefulliving ________________________________💻 Free TrainingOverwhelmed?
