It’s the beginning of a new school year for us and many of you. With that, come new routines — whether you are homeschooling or your kids are going to school in-person.
In this episode, Jesse and I share strategies for having a better morning routine and how to set up a morning routine that serves you and your family well.
We talk about why a successful morning begins the night before, how to tackle the hardest things first, and the importance of creating more than one morning routine.
Say what? More than one routine?
Yes, you read that right. Curious what we mean? Be sure to listen in!
We also share an update on Champ, why Jesse is loving long drives, a new exercise “program” Jesse inspired me to start, why I’m loving velvet hangers, and a book I’m reading right now.
