Can I ask you something? How are you feeling about summer right now — like really feeling about it? Because if you're anything like most of the moms I talk to in early July — the answer is somewhere between "I love my kids so much" and "I am so ready for a routine again." And friend — both of those things can be completely true at the same time.

Here's what I know about this exact moment in summer: the novelt...

Can I ask you something? When was the last time you actually felt good — like, genuinely energized, strong, and clear-headed throughout your day?

Here's the thing about summer that nobody warns you about — it's not just that your routine goes out the window. It's that every single week looks...

Because here's the thing nobody talks about: summer doesn't actually stop your dea...

Can I ask you something? Is it just me, or does May feel like it has approximately 47 days worth of things crammed into 31.  There's a reason we call it Maycember — because the end of the school year hits like a second holiday season. Finals, awards ceremonies, sports playoffs, graduation parties, teacher appreciation, summer camp registration… and somehow you're still supposed to show up at work and keep the hous...

Welcome back to The Busy Vibrant Mom podcast! I'm so glad you're here.  Have you ever opened your email, your calendar, or your planner and instantly felt overwhelmed?  Lately, I've been on a mission to get a better handle on my email — and I'll be honest, I had almost 200 unread messages just sitting there.
