Ep 023: Back-to-School Preparation

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s time to go back to school...or back to virtual learning. In this season of uncertainty we’re all asked to make big decisions that will work best for our families. I know this is super personal my friend! </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">No matter what you, the CDC, your school, or your besties are choosing, I’m here to discuss 3 things that might make it a bit of an easier transition as the new school year approaches. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode I suggest 3 E’s that I’ll be sticking to in order to keep my kiddos focused on a successful learning experience and prepared for any surprise scenario that comes our way. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here are those suggestions if you’d like to use them in your home and in your schedule this school year:</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Essential: Purge (any clutter from last year or over the summer that accumulated in your home and consider what activities are necessary or can be purged from your schedule as safety restrictions prevent us from doing lots of things we were used to doing before)</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Enhancement: Good Communication and Flexibility (with family, friends, co-workers, teachers, childcare providers for any new scenario this pandemic presents)</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Extra: Not Over-buying or Over-indulging (in products, food, drinks, school supplies, clothes, and more so there’s less waste, less clutter and more financial responsibility during this time)</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember your 3 E’s can be completely different than mine. Focus on what works best with your style!</span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>Highlights from this episode:</strong></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{3:01} Applying the 3 E’s for back-to-school preparation</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight
