The Spring Scramble: Navigating the Shift from End of School Year to Summer


Listen Later

Today, Lauren is walking us through the 3 busiest seasons we have as moms:  the holidays, back to school time, and the upcoming school year to summer transition. 

While most moms recognize back-to-school and holiday seasons as peak stress times, she shines a light on why April and May create a perfect storm of scheduling nightmares, financial strain, and mental overload as families transition from school routines to summer plans.

Key Points Discussed: 

  • We feel like there should be an ebb and flow to the busyness of the year, but the reality is that there’s always something coming up to plan for when you have children.
  • The importance of intentionally planning: how you can focus ahead of time to reduce stress caused by doing things last minute.
  • How Lauren thought she had it all figured out, and then got whacked with the End of School Year mayhem last year.
  • Why she does weekly planning but also targeted guidance for the 3 busiest times of year for parents.
  • Why the end of the school year is so very busy.
  • Details about the upcoming School to Summer Shift Prep Guide and why you should join to get some help over the next few months.
