It's the last day of school in Spain. Sam has four kids. Three months of summer ahead. A business that can't go on pause. And this morning she woke up completely overwhelmed.

By 11am, she'd completely turned it around.

This week on the Divorce Awakening Podcast, Delia and Sam recorded this one in real time — kids walking through the door by the end of it — talking through the exact moment the summer overwhelm hits and what you can actually do about it.

In this episode, you'll learn:

🔥 The negative thought spiral that starts the second school breaks up — and the one question that stops it dead

🔥 Why you're not actually dreading this summer, you're dreading the stories your mind has invented

🔥 What Sam did when she fell back into old habits last night — and how she shifted her entire energy today before midday

🔥 The reason your kids are stressed is probably not what you think it is

🔥 How to respond to "can we go to the water park?" without ruining everyone's day including your own

🔥 Why expectations are the thing quietly making solo parenting so much harder than it needs to be

Solo parenting in summer is intense. The kids are louder, the days are longer, the mental load doesn't stop. But the only thing standing between you and a peaceful summer isn't money or childcare or a better ex. It's the stories you're already telling yourself about how it's going to go.

This episode is the reset you didn't know you needed before summer properly kicks off.
