Lindsay is honest about the goal of having dinner together not always happening, and how she is not naturally organized and needs to have systems to stay organized. We chat about the importance of making special time with girlfriends and giving grace when you’re all busy. This conversation with Lindsay was so refreshing.

Monica shares how hydration is a form of self-care for her, how her pregnancy has changed her days recently, and how they’re settling into their new town and meeting new people.

Underwear is one of the most needed and least donated items of clothing, and can drastically impact a child’s self-esteem and well-being.

I personally choose to donate to Cocotree Kids, and if you feel so inclined, you can check out their website at cocotreekids.org. If you’re not in Massachusetts and would like to donate more locally, consider donating underwear to a local shelter or organization assisting at-risk youth.

Tell us what you think!!!I am so glad you’re joining us for a conversion with Julia Dzafic, content creator, marketing consultant, cookbook author (to be published in May 2024), and mom of two busy kids. Julia is an OG Blogger, and I feel like I have been following her since before Instagram and am so excited she’s joining us to tell us about her days! In today’s episode, Julia shares how she structures her days into 4 time blocks to maximize productivity. We discuss how she prioritizes a walk each day with her dog and how she needs her microbreaks between work blocks and between her work and mom life to reset herself. Julia shares how she and her husband make time for each other including pre-weekend lunch dates to get some solo time before the weekend. I so appreciated Julia’s honesty when it comes to the post-dinner hours and what bedtime looks like, and how the reality of the mom you are sometimes looks different than the mom you thought you’d be. Thank you, Julia! You can all follow Julia on Instagram at @lemonstripes or on her website LemonStripes.com, and I will be preordering her cookbook as soon as it’s available!
