Parenting Without Burnout: Managing Energy & Transitions as a Family

As parents, life moves in seasons—school to summer, grade to grade, changing friendships—but how do we manage these transitions without running ourselves into the ground? Today, we’re talking about parental energy management—how to balance work, responsibilities, and self-care so we can actually be present for our kids when they need us most.

✅ How to balance personal energy levels as a parenting team
✅ Why communication with your spouse is key to avoiding burnout
✅ Ways to set boundaries throughout the day to protect your attention
✅ How to be present and emotionally available when kids get home from school
