Is your chore system boring, broken, or just barely hanging on? In this week's episode, Mystie Winckler explains why treating housework like a board game—not a machine—can radically change how you engage with your homemaking routines. Instead of striving for sameness or perfection, you’ll discover how playful strategy leads to greater joy, engagement, and flexibility.

🎯 What if your chore plan didn’t need to “work forever”—just work for this round?

This clip comes from a live session inside Convivial Circle during our Baby Step Bingo challenge—a unique approach to breaking through perfectionism and overwhelm through playful progress and real-world strategy.

You’ll learn:

Why sameness is the wrong goal

How to think like a strategist, not a robot

Why gamification helps you clean better and feel better

How to stop getting derailed by surprises

What it looks like to repent, rejoice, and repeat in your homemaking
