Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
"Routines really help us to create structure in chaos..."
"We are not trying to overhaul your whole life. That is just a recipe for disaster. Start small. See how it feels, and build from there."
"Where are the routines for you? So much of what we do as moms is for our kids or our households, but your routines should include you just as much as everyone else."
"Your kids are learning not from what you say, but from what you do. Model the behavior of taking care of yourself so they can learn how to care for themselves."
"Life happens. Momming happens. The days don’t always go as planned, so having flexibility in your routine is essential for sticking with it long-term."
