Let’s Learn From Each Other: Community Chat + Giveaway🎁
Avoiding Overwhelm and practical solutions from the community.
This short post is a little different. 😁
I know so many of you personally and I would love for each of you to have a chance to share here. Help me make this a community of sharing great ideas.
Let us all benefit from your wisdom, humor, and unique perspective!
Today, this is an opportunity to respond in the comments and start a conversation full of practical tips.
Think of it as a coffee shop chat. 💙 [plus a fun giveaway!]
I know you don’t need another app to deal with but the Substack app is the best way to be a part of the community and get updates. Also, you will be able to interact with this post better in the app. 😜
#1 - Let’s start with 2 survey questions.

We would love to know - tell us why in the comments!

#2 - Community Chat
How this works =
- share in the comments your response
- and interact with other comments left by others
.
Questions:
What’s one small habit or routine that keeps you grounded?
When overwhelm creeps in, what’s your first step toward resetting?
If you homeschool, what’s a routine or ritual that your kids look forward to?

First thing I do out of bed, is take a shower. Something bout it helps me ease outta sleep and gets me going.
I often reset with a book or doing g some art. Nothing serious, just playing with supplies.
