In this heartfelt conversation, Samantha interviews Niki Francis, a homeschooling mom and business owner, on how she structures her days with grace. They explore the concept of family anchors over rigid schedules, how to get your spouse on board, and even how Nikki uses AI to simplify meal planning.
Takeaways:
Ditch the time blocks; define anchors that align with your family values.
Use a simple Sunday meeting to reduce the mental load with your spouse.
Your daily rhythm should adapt with seasons—not stay static.
Let your values guide your habits, not your guilt.
Try using AI (like ChatGPT) to help with meal planning and repurposing content.
