    247: On Letting go of Old Seasons and Embracing the New with Shauna Niequist (Minimal-ish Replay)

    At the end of one of the busiest weeks of the year for my family, I'm bringing you a replay episode of my favorite episode of the podcast that speaks to me now just as much as it did two years ago. Shauna Niequist had always been my dream guest, and that dream came true in spring of 2022! I'm so excited to replay this episode for you as you may not have heard it yet being that it is far down in the archives. Even if you've heard it, it's one of those must-re-listen episodes.


    Shauna and I talk about change, the mourning that can come with change, and how we can embrace a new season even if it feels like someone is prying the old season from our hands. If you're going through change of any kind, change can be so hard. This episode is here to be a warm embrace. Grab a cup of something warm and listen in again, or for the first time.

    246: Simple Tips for Overhauling Your Daily Routines (For When You're Feeling Unintentional)

    Today I'm sharing a solo episode where I talk through some details of how we overhauled our summer routine when our days were feeling very unstructured and unintentional. First I share some steps I take when I'm ready to change up a routine. I then share a little more behind the scenes of routine changes and visuals that worked for our family to go from unintentional summer routine to much more structure and intention in our days. I'm sharing about our summer routine since we had some practice in making sure it worked. However, I'll be applying these concepts to our back to school/ fall routines over the next few weeks.


    I hope you enjoy this episode! thank you for listening in!
