But let’s be honest — for most of us, that’s exactly how it feels.
Between the forms, the folder chaos, the late-night Target runs, and trying to regulate your own nervous system through it all… it’s A LOT. And you’re probably the one holding all of it.
In this episode, I’m walking you through how I’m making the transition back to school feel less like survival mode — and more like something that actually supports me and my family.
We’re talking about:
✔️ Why back-to-school hits your nervous system so hard (and how to calm it)
✔️ Routines that support ease, not perfection — and how I delegate the emotional labor
✔️ Setting boundaries around capacity, noise, and overstimulation (without guilt)
✔️ Creating systems that let your kids rise — so you’re not carrying it all
✔️ Letting go of the “organized mom” performance + showing up as YOU
If you're tired of doing it all and still feeling behind, this is your permission slip to do things differently.
Back to school gets to feel good — and I’ll show you how.
