In this season two things feel more scarce:

Time + Money

So I thought I'd share 5 fun + free ideas you can do this season with your family that doesn't break the bank.

As we journey through the ups and downs of motherhood, one thing remains constant: the desire to raise compassionate, thankful, and emotionally resilient children.

Today I wanted to dive into the art of cultivating gratitude in kids, spanning all ages from toddlers to teens.

As we step into the season of warmth and joy, it's easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of holiday preparations, school activities, and family commitments.

But this year, let's take a different approach. Let's make the season truly magical (and manageable) by planning it wisely and with intention.

Here are some practical tips to simplify your schedule, ensure quality time with your loved ones, and keep stress to a dull simmer…

Life as a mom can be overwhelming with countless decisions to make each day. Research states, on average people make 35,000 conscious and unconscious decisions every day. I would argue, moms easily exceed that daily average.

Today, I want to help you simplify your daily decision-making process, so you can reduce your mental clutter and focus on what matters most in your day.

As the leaves begin to fall and we spend more time indoors, it’s the perfect opportunity to declutter and refresh your home before the busy holiday season kicks in.

But the idea of tackling an entire house can feel overwhelming. That’s why this 30-day Fall Declutter Challenge is designed to break it down into manageable steps, so you can make meaningful progress without feeling stressed.

By the end of the month, you’ll have a cleaner, more organized home that feels cozy and inviting for the fall season.

Now that school is back in session, that also might mean your morning or afternoon commute is longer.

As the crisp air begins to settle in and the days grow shorter, there’s something incredibly comforting about transitioning our homes to reflect the cozy vibes of fall.

But before we dive into pumpkin-spice and everything nice, let’s take a moment to set up your home for the season ahead.

Whether you’re a busy mom juggling a million things or a woman wanting to make your space a sanctuary, these seven steps will help you organize your home and embrace the beauty of fall.

Ok, so nobody panic! Summer is not ending today. But...I do want you to start thinking about how you want to say goodbye to your summer season.

Maybe this was an epic summer for you. You traveled to some fun places, snuck in some naps, and overall had a delightful time. The stars just seemed align this year.

Or...maybe this was a really hard summer for you. The kids were complaining or fighting most the time.

You felt like you spent a fortune on camps but still got zero time to yourself. In all honesty, you are just barely making it to August.

Regardless of how your summer has been, like anything in life, it's important to mark the end of a season so you can welcome the next.

In our home, we call it "Closing Ceremonies".

Do you have a "Fix It" list?

I was talking with one of my clients (I have the best ones!) and we were trying to reduce her mental load when it comes to managing the household.

We created a zone system for the family's evening routine but there are those pesky to-do's that aren't part of her weekly rhythm.

So I suggested a "Fix It" list.

This is a running list of items that need to be replaced, fixed, or outsourced.

Mom, can I watch TV?

Anyone else hear this question 100x a day? I was an 80's kid and didn't grow up with tons of technology competing for my attention. We played outside a lot and had to find ways to overcome boredom.

But that's not the world we are raising our children in.

In today's digital age, navigating technology can be a challenge, especially when it comes to finding a healthy balance for the whole family.

Establishing tech boundaries is crucial to ensure quality time, meaningful connections, and a well-rounded family life.

Summer is a magical season but sometimes…it can start to feel like Groundhog Day.

If you need a little inspiration for a fun day trip, check out my list below. As a native Texan, I’ve visited all these spots and there’s literally something for everyone to enjoy.

Happy travels!

"So what movie are we watching tonight?"

This is such a loaded question in our house!

And typically leads to a solid 15 minute back-and-forth negotiation between my boys on which movie they should watch for movie night.

Family movie nights are one of my favorite traditions we adopted during the pandemic.

My least favorite part is deciding on the movie. 😂 Can you relate?

You might still be nursing your "Maycember" hangover, so today I thought I'd drop some practical tips to help you get prepped and prepared for all your summer adventures, whether in-town or on the road. Read on…

I'm going to let you in on a little secret..

My home gets messy. *gasp*

Yup, I said it!

There are socks and shoes thrown haphazardly on the bench, our craft table is usually covered in Legos, and there are always (and I mean always) napkins scattered on the floor because my dear, sweet pup, Scout is constantly pulling them off our dining room table.

I think we all know deep down that no one's home looks Instagram-perfect all the time.

Like that's impossible.

But even equipped with that knowledge, we still hold ourselves to that perfectionist standard.

Confession: I’m an over-sharer.

One of the many things I've learned as a mom is to leverage other women's wisdom.

Y'all are some of the most resourceful humans on the planet.

I don't know any other group of people that will spend countless hours on research, ask hundreds of questions, or create so many pro/cons lists other than maybe scientists and engineers...but I think some of y'all have them beat.

Over the past few years, I've discovered I'm an over-sharer.

I love sharing resources I come across with other moms and friends. So much so, I've now trained myself to make sure I ask permission before sharing. Mainly because I don't want to come across as annoying or overwhelm anyone with too many resources.

It's one of my favorite times of year here in Texas. The bluebonnets are in full bloom and you can catch glimpses of all the butterflies dancing among the wildflowers.

What do you love about this season?

One of the other things I love about spring, is the rhythm of renewal or reset. This gives us a chance to shake off the winter blues and welcome a lighter energy into our homes and lives.

As a fellow busy mom, I know how challenging it can be to keep up with household chores while juggling the responsibilities of motherhood and work.

Today, I want to share some creative ways to manage household chores with your family by making it a more collaborative and enjoyable process for everyone.
