    Ep. 63 - Organizing Tips for Summer

    The school year is wrapping up and the kids can’t wait for summer to start, but if you aren’t sharing 100% of their enthusiasm, you’re not alone. 
     
    The optimistic part of us is excited to get a break from the busy schedule, spend time with the kids, and just relax.
    But the realist is worried about a whole lot of things:
     
    How to handle a messy house
    How to keep up with everyday responsibilities, like work or other commitments
    How to keep the kids busy, so they aren’t fighting or on electronics too much…
     
    So in today’s episode I give 5 tips to help you organize your summer. From tactical to strategic, summer becomes much more manageable - and fun - when you throw a little organization into the long, lazy days.

Motivating and Approachable

I love how Jenny breaks down a task and provides a clear way to just get started. Creating momentum can be the hardest part after all. She helps remind me that I don’t have to do it ALL everyday, which I seem to need reminders of far too often. Thank you for sharing concepts that motivate me to get going and make progress!

So much more than a clean house

This finally makes sense. It is so much more than just trying to force myself into a routine. I love Jenny’s stories to help explain the process of organizing my life. It’s more than just a clean kitchen. I am going all in here. I can’t do this without changing up some brain clutter first. Thank you Jenny.
