The Back-to-School Reset: Routines, Work, Relationships, and Boundaries EP 73

Back-to-school season isn't just a transition for kids. It's a major adjustment for working parents, too. Lori Mihalich-Levin and Jason Levin share practical ways to make the shift easier, from treating the first month as an adjustment period and planning ahead for school closures to revisiting household responsibilities, communicating needs at work, and building relationships within the school community. They also explore the importance of boundaries, flexibility, and giving yourself permission to approach the new school year as an experiment.
