The 3-Thing Rule: How to Do Less & Enjoy Summer More

Welcome back to the Slay At Home Podcast, the podcast for Type B moms who are tired of hustle culture and ready for a home that actually feels good to live in.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a game-changing concept for overwhelmed moms: The 3-Thing Rule. If you’re feeling burned out by long summer days, cluttered to-do lists, or the pressure to make every moment Pinterest-perfect, this minimalist daily rhythm is your permission slip to breathe.

This episode is especially for:

  • Type B and Type C moms struggling with routines that never seem to stick

  • Moms craving a simple summer rhythm that actually works

  • Anyone feeling stuck in decision fatigue, parenting burnout, or mom guilt

    🌿 Inside this episode:

    • Why doing less isn’t lazy—it’s strategic (and backed by brain science)

    • How the 3-Thing Rule helps with homemaking, parenting, and self-care

    • What research says about multitasking, overplanning, and parental stress

    • How this simple rhythm reduces mental load and boosts daily peace

    • Real-life wins from moms who ditched pressure for presence

      You’ll learn how to ditch the all-or-nothing mindset and finally embrace a gentler, more sustainable homemaking routine—without needing color-coded charts or complicated schedules.

      Whether your summer feels chaotic, cluttered, or just plain exhausting, the 3-Thing Rule will help you:

      ✨ Simplify your day
      ✨ Feel accomplished without burnout
      ✨ Create meaningful connection without overextending yourself

      So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and let’s talk about how doing less can actually help you enjoy more this summer.
