Listen Later

💖 Hey Mama,

Ever catch yourself running through the motions—school drop-offs, laundry, errands—and realize there’s nothing in your day that you’re actually looking forward to? It’s no wonder so many moms feel drained, lost in motherhood, and stuck in the cycle of overwhelm.

Here’s the truth: fun isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. When you don’t intentionally plan it in, joy gets buried under routines, responsibilities, and guilt. But the good news? With just a few simple planning tweaks, you can start sparking joy again—without overhauling your whole schedule.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through 3 intentional routines that help moms plan FUN into their days so you always have something to look forward to. These aren’t about adding more to your plate—they’re about using planning and routines to bring back your spark, calm, and excitement.

Key Takeaways
  • Why moms lose their sense of fun and how it impacts identity

  • How a seasonal “theme” can reset your routines and stop the daily grind

  • The weekly planning trick that guarantees you have joy on your calendar

  • Why achiever, nurturer, explorer, architect, and creative moms each need different types of fun

  • How to add daily treats without guilt—or blowing your goals or budget

  • The intentional planning shift that helps moms reclaim joy and feel like themselves again

    Cheering you on 🎉,

    Aubree
