EPISODE 12 - Summer Survival Kit: What's Saving Our Sanity This Week

This week, we’re unpacking the real summer survival kit — and no, it’s not sunscreen and beach towels (though, those help). We’re talking about the hacks, routines, and random little wins that are helping us keep our cool while school’s out and the chaos is in full swing. From what’s keeping our kids entertained without melting down by 10 a.m. to the things we’re doing for ourselves so we don’t completely lose it — we’ve got you. Grab your iced coffee, press play, and let’s survive this summer together.
