New: Parenting Power Plays — Your Weekly Shortcut to Less Stress

Ever feel like you're managing chaos instead of a family?
Like you're just bouncing between school drop-off, work meetings, and trying to figure out what's for dinner again?

Yeah. Me too.
That’s exactly why I created a new weekly newsletter on LinkedIn called:

Parenting Power Plays

It’s short.
It’s real.
And it’s packed with small, powerful shifts that help you go from barely holding it together… to feeling just a little more in control.

Here’s a quick win from last week’s edition:

Power Play: Ditch the pressure of “quality time.” Instead, build micro-connection rituals like:

A 3-minute “Wish Game” in the morning: “What’s one thing you hope happens today?”

Why it works:

Children feel connection through consistency and attention—not by watching the clock.

Bottom line: You don’t need more minutes. You need more intention in the moments you already have.

By the time you get through the morning chaos, school drop-offs, meetings, and the third email that definitely could’ve been a Slack… you're wiped.And you still have dinner, homework, and that pile of laundry waiting for you. So let’s talk about it. I want to know: What’s draining your energy the most this season? What’s draining your energy most this fall? (Pick one, the one that hits hardest right now.)

Routine, change - wooden signpost

October has a way of sneaking up on you, doesn’t it? You think the back-to-school chaos will settle down… but now it’s school projects, spirit week, fall festivals, late meetings, and trying to figure out when you’re supposed to breathe.
