January has a way of making families feel like they need a complete reset—new habits, new goals, new energy—right when everyone is already tired. In this episode, Brianne and David reframe the pressure of the new year and introduce a more sustainable approach: alignment over reinvention.

Instead of starting over, they talk honestly about what it looks like to get back on the same page as a couple and as parents—especially after a heavy or overwhelming semester. This conversation is for families who feel behind, stretched thin, or unsure where to even begin.

This episode kicks off our Strong Families Start Here series, where we focus on building rhythms, unity, and emotional stability in real life—not the highlight reel.
