Kindred Conversations

Shira Gill is a globally recognized home organizing expert, bestselling author, and speaker.

In this episode she joins Britt and discusses how we can manage mental clutter and set up systems that work for our families!

In preparation for the summer and traveling season ahead, we are talking about something we would both consider ourselves experts in: roadtrips! Traveling with little kids is an intense and specific challenge. When roadtripping with my family, preparation is the name of the game. We talk about all the food, activities, stops, etc. that work for our families in this phase of life when traveling by car!

Submission Episode! We requested all of your best household hacks that make life a little easier with little kids. So many tips were about where you keep and how you maintain shoes and socks 🤣. Who knew socks would become such a big deal once you had little kids in your home?? Thank you for all the tips! You can join in the conversation @kindred_conversations on Instagram!

It can be tempting to stay inside all day in a “safe space” for your children. But, we are both believers that getting out of the house is important for your mental health and provides valuable learning opportunities for your children. In this episode we talk all about our favorite outings with kids, family centric vs. kid centric outings, and how we like to prepare for said outings. I don’t know why the only examples of adult outings I could come up with were a hair appointment and OBGYN visit but let it serve that I meant [insert adult outing here].
