One of the most common struggles that I hear my clients and my mom friends have is the tired and stressful everyday routines and trying to get everything done at the same time.
It’s stressful to live your life with a routine that does not work for you!
If you keep feeling tired, frustrated with your routine at home, then something is not working.

You have to figure out what changes you can make in order to have a good calm and peaceful routine for you and your children that actually WORKS!
