Back to School Simplified With Brittney from Home & Kind

We’re officially in back-to-school mode, and if that thought feels more overwhelming than exciting, you’re going to love today’s conversation. Erin sits down with Brittany from @homeandkind — aka the queen of practical mom hacks — to talk all things lunchboxes, rhythms, and how to actually make this season feel lighter, not more chaotic. Brittany shares how her business evolved from party products to viral lunch hacks, the freezer-friendly tricks that will change your mornings, and the simple snack box system that’ll have your kids packing their own lunches in no time (yes, really).  She opens up about how motherhood has taught her to lean into her kids’ independence, how she fiercely protects her own hobbies (hello, sourdough and birdwatching!), and why sometimes the best thing we can do is embrace the chaos. We also talk traditions (her back-to-school dinner idea is genius), her go-to breakfast and dinner shortcuts, and the tiny evening tweak that makes mornings feel 100x smoother. Whether you’re packing lunches for the first time or juggling multiple kids in different schools, Brittany’s practical wisdom and calm encouragement will leave you feeling equipped, inspired, and way less alone.
