Episode 059: Sticking to routines when your life is unpredictable

Podcast_Ep059_website_image.png

Our lives aren't always as cookie-cutter as we had planned them to be. Life as a mom can be messy and unpredictable. Between work schedules, extracurriculars, sports, partners that travel and a myriad of other things that pop up each day, our day-to-day tasks can be unpredictable. So how do you stick to a solid routine when you don't live a routine life?

In this episode, I'm introducing the idea of a "floating routine" and how helpful it can be for keeping your life running smooth (ish) even if your daily life and schedule doesn't feel conductive to routines. The more out-of-control your life feels, the more routines will save you.

WHAT YOU'LL HEAR TODAY:

  • What a floating routine is and how it can truly save your life if you have an unpredictable schedule

  • How routines can fit effortlessly into your life, even if your daily schedule changes.

  • How routines should really fit into your life
