#83. How Working From Home Helped Me Create an Intentional Christmas (and an Evening Routine That Stuck)

from Mostly All Figured Out · host Emily Rose

In this episode of Mostly All Figured Out, I’m sharing how working from home unexpectedly helped me create a more intentional holiday season, build an evening routine that actually stuck, and be more present with my kids during December.I knew going into this month that I’d have the boys a lot - their dad was gone for most of December - and I didn’t want to look back and feel like I missed it while technically being there the whole time. So I got intentional with my days, locked in during work hours, and built small systems that supported the kind of mom and human I wanted to be this season.We talk about:Working from home as a system (not just a vibe)Building an evening routine without forcing itHabit stacking and ADHD-friendly routinesHow washing the dishes every night completely changed my life (swear to God, I'm just as shocked as you are)Being present with your kids without burning yourself outWhy small, supportive habits matter more than big overhaulsI also share a quick update on working on the inauguration reception for Buffalo’s incoming mayor, Sean Ryan, and why there’s no real slowing down as the year wraps up.If you’ve been craving calmer days, better routines, or proof that small changes can actually change how your life feels - this episode is for you 💛Support the show💸 Want to support the pod?
