- 67 | Organize Your Time by Planning a Day Stack (my version of time blocking)
You have likely heard of “time blocking”. Some people love it, some people hate it and it seems like the steps of HOW to time block depends on who you are talking to.
I have tried several different formats of time blocking and the version I use now is BY FAR my favorite way! So today, I’ll walk you through a simple way to organize your day by using a method that I call my “day stack”. :)
I use my paper planner and a pile of erasable highlighters and erasable pens, but you can just grab a regular piece of paper and a normal pen if that’s what you have!
Let’s do this!

[email protected]28 min - 66 | 3 Journal Prompts When You Feel Rundown and Overwhelmed
If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and rundown, it’s time to grab yourself a hot cup of coffee, a paper and pen, and tell your family you need some quiet time.
Shut yourself in your room or lock yourself in a closet if you need to. Get cozy and give yourself a little space to go through these three go-to journal prompts. We are going to go deep so you can get clarity to get out of that funk.
xo,

Today is a special episode! I asked my mom (a mother of eleven children) to come on the podcast and share some insight on raising kids. We talked about routines she created when my siblings and I were growing up, things she wished she could go back and change, and even some encouragement for all mothers out there.
If you are in the thick of motherhood, I hope you find our conversation helpful!

[email protected]31 min - 63 | Feeling Too Busy to Exercise? 5 Steps to Make Time for a Movement Routine You Enjoy
When schedules are full, it’s easy to push ‘exercise’ off the long list of to-dos when it doesn’t feel like there is enough time in the day.
The problem with this is that when we leave it out, we don’t get the amazing health benefits to help fuel our day with the energy we need. And when we don’t get that energy, we get more tired, sluggish, and more stressed and we aren’t able to keep up with our responsibilities as well as we could if we had more energy.
That’s a cycle we don’t want to get caught in!
So today we are going to look at five steps you can take right now to help carve out time for a movement routine you not only can make time for, but one you will actually enjoy!
Let's get to it!

When life gets busy, one of the common things that we start falling behind on is our housework. I know for myself, I used to swing from a cleaning frenzy where everything needed to be spic and span to wanting to forget it all and collapse on the couch while everything fell apart around me.

If you find yourself in this situation, you’re going to want to listen to this episode because we are talking about three reasons why you might be falling behind on housework as well as some solutions on how you can stop that pendulum swing for good.
Let's get to it!

About The Routine Advantage | Simple Habits, Routines and Systems to Get Your Life Organized, Build Consistency and Reduce Overwhelm

- RANKED A TOP 2.5% PODCAST GLOBALLY-
Are you going to bed at night thinking about your never-ending to-do list and already stressing about tomorrow?
Waking up exhausted and…
relying on coffee to get through your day?
Are you making multiple trips to the store each week, stressing about what to make for dinner each night, spending too much money on groceries and take out, and feeling frazzled about paying bills on time?
I'm Renae Matt and I've been where you are! I work full-time, I'm growing my own business, and I still want to spend quality date nights with my husband. Over the years I got so tired of the housework, the bills, and the never-ending list of things to do. I was trying to keep track of it all. It was overwhelming and I felt like I had no time left to ENJOY life.
Over time, I began to build simple routines to get organized. I set up the framework to have a foundation of routines that I can fall back on even when everything else feels like it's falling apart.
On this podcast, I share what I have learned so YOU can also build these five foundational routines that can transform your life, too!
• A MORNING ROUTINE to take care of YOU first so you can begin each day feeling fulfilled and show up better for those around you.

• A MORNING ROUTINE to take care of YOU first so you can begin each day feeling fulfilled and show up better for those around you.
• A MEAL PLANNING ROUTINE to reduce the frustration and simplify dinner time.
• A "DAILY 7" HOME ROUTINE to keep a tidy home without wasting weekends cleaning and catching up on laundry.
• A MOVEMENT ROUTINE so you can feel rejuvenated and get your energy back!
• AN EASY BUDGET ROUTINE to create a plan for your money and help you get out of debt, get rid of money stress, and save for your dreams.
Our lives are busy, but they don't have to be overwhelming. When we can get these five foundational routines in place, you will have a system set up to help reduce the stress and give you your time back! I'm here to help you build these simple routines so that they can change your life, too.
You might think this isn't the right time because you are too busy to change something, but friend… when you feel TOO BUSY to prioritize your LIFE...that is when you know something NEEDS to change.
We can't get lost time back and God didn't create us to live our lives checking off boxes and drowning in errands.
So let's TAKE BACK YOUR TIME.
Instead of spending your evenings stressed about all the tasks you didn't get to, you will be able to spend those nights having fun with your family. Go for an evening walk, do a game night, find a hobby, or have a date night with your hubby.
When you get your life organized, you get your life back. THAT is the Routine Advantage.

Renae
