Break weeks can feel so disruptive to our regularly-scheduled life. The kids are home, routines are off, and your work responsibilities don't magically pause. In this episode, I'm sharing how I manage weeks like Mardi Gras here in New Orleans without losing momentum, or my mind.
Episode highlights:
- Why break weeks feel so frustrating (and why it's not a discipline issue)
- How to intentionally lower expectations without falling behind
- The "maintenance week" mindset: focusing on deadlines and essentials only
- Why choosing one main goal per day keeps you moving forward
- How resetting your home environment reduces mental noise
- Planning your re-entry so you're not scrambling when life returns to normal
