DamChats 26) Over-Scheduled Kids and Burnt Out Parents: How to Stop Doing It All

Are we creating memories, or are we just checking boxes? In this episode of DAMChats, Eva and Maren take a warm, honest, and direct look at the "more is more" culture of modern parenting. We dive into the exhaustion of the endless to-do list—from the pressure of perfect birthday parties to the weekend dash between trampoline parks and dance classes.We unpack how social media fuels comparison anxiety, making us feel like "enough" is never actually enough. We discuss the impact of over-scheduling on our children's nervous systems (and our own) and why the most magical moments usually happen in the quiet gaps, not the planned activities. If you’re feeling drained by the hustle to keep up with the "Joneses" (or the "Jansens"), this conversation is your permission slip to do less. Tune in for practical insights on fighting parental guilt, embracing simplicity, and reclaiming your family’s time for what actually matters.
