In this week's Focus Stack, we're flipping the way most moms approach routines. Instead of trying to create the perfect morning or evening routine, you'll learn why planning your week first makes it much easier to build routines that actually fit your life. In this episode, we'll cover: Why there is no such thing as the perfect routine How to determine the goal of your week before adjusting your routines Why your routines should change as your weeks and seasons change How I use my Weekly Stacking Session to plan ahead instead of reacting Download your Weekly Focus Guide in the show notes and use this week's exercise to begin planning your next week with intention. If you enjoyed today's episode, I'd love for you to leave a review and share it with another mama who could use a little more peace in her week. Until next time… Just keep stacking.
