Do you wish you had personalized systems that work for you and save time? In this podcast, you will find strategic, personalized systems that will work for you and set you free from overwhelm, stress, anxiety, exhaustion, and trying to balance it all. My mission is to equip you to have more time by using strategic time management tools, like time blocking, batching, routines, systems, and habits. To help you be more organized in your home and save you hours in your day. If you are ready to let go of the stress of trying to do it all, managing a part time job, and balancing being a mom, then you are in the right place my friend! Hey, I’m Michelle—a Christian mom of three, wife, and strategic time management coach. I used to feel overwhelmed trying to juggle it all, often putting my to-do list before time with my kids. Now, I’ve learned how to manage and timeblock my time to create margin, so I can say “yes” to my kids without guilt. I’m here to help other moms find peace and balance, manage their time, and be less overwhelmed. Ready for personalized strategic systems that work? Grab your lukewarm coffee, and let’s dive in!

As we gear up for summer it can seem daunting. Summer schedules are typically boundary and responsibility free. Between spontaneous playdates, vacations, family visits, day trips, work, staying up late, and constantly shifting routines, it’s easy for working moms to lose structure, and find themselves in chaos. But the good news is that boundaries don’t box you in, they actually set you free. Today we are continuing our Summer Success Series, ten weeks of episodes to give you a life line by helping you manage and plan your summer, so that you can actually enjoy it. In this episode #9, we focus on five boundaries every mom needs to set in place to protect her joy and energy all summer long. Let’s get started!

As moms we do so many little tasks without even realizing it. We are the ones who switch out the kids clothes that are too small, purchase new clothes, help kids pack, refill things around the house, reorder the daily items that don’t make it on the list, meal plan like a boss, take up a new job as an unpaid uber driver, and so many more tiny yet significant tasks. Over the summer it can be a challenge to fit in times of rest. Between packing for trips, unpacking and doing massive loads of laundry, figuring out logistics, and actually working, rest can seem like a luxury, but it isn’t. Today we are continuing our Summer Success Series, 10 weeks of episodes to give you a lifeline by helping you manage and plan your summer, so that you can actually enjoy it! As we jump into our 7th episode in our series we are focusing on rest, why we need it, different types of rest, and practical tips to fit in rest to our schedule even in the summer. Grab your ice tea or your lemonade and let’s get started!

Summer is a unique animal. We can have so many unnoticed expectations about how or what we will do with our family over the summer. As busy working moms we can feel guilty that we need to take time away from our families and work. It's far too easy with the addition of social media to fall into the comparison trap and feel frustrated that our family isn’t taking an exotic fun trip like our friends, family, or neighbors. We can also lose sight of what we want summer to be by over planning every minute, or miss out on fun activities because we never get around putting them on the calendar. But I’m here to say you don’t have to do it all, and your summer doesn’t need to look Pinterest Perfect. Today we are continuing our Summer Success Series, 10 weeks of episodes to give you a life line, by helping you manage and plan your summer, so that you can actually enjoy it! Today as we jump into the 5th episode in our series, we are going to talk about sneaky mind games we play that steal our summer joy, and how to avoid them. Let’s get started!
