Welcome to Live Well Anyway. I'm your host, Mackenzie Kappa. On this podcast, I help you learn how to feel healthy, look good, and plan a life you actually like in the midst of all the everyday chaos. I'm so glad you're here. And today, we are doing a deep dive into ways we can actually help our kids be

organized and prepare for school and learn study skills and learn to use their planners and all

of that kind of thing because I talk a lot about how we can be preparing for back to school.

In fact, if you haven't signed up yet, then you're going to want to because tomorrow I am hosting

a back to school webinar. It's completely free and we are going to go through all of those steps

of what you need to do to get yourself and your family ready for back to school. You can go to

mackenziecopa.com slash back to school webinar. It's at 10 o'clock tomorrow, Pacific Daylight Time. That's this

Thursday, July 20th. I would love to see you there. It's going to be a really good time.

I'm going to answer your questions. So be sure to be there. There will also be a replay available.

So hop on over there. The link is in your show notes. But since we do all of that preparation for ourselves,

I've realized, especially from talking to a few moms, that this is a gap that we really need

to talk about. We need to talk about how to be helping our kids in the way of getting their

own stuff together. So that is what today's episode is going to completely

revolve around. But before we get there, I have one more request for you. And that is that I have

an upcoming episode of the podcast that is going to be coming out that is all about podcasting.

So we are about to head into season nine of the podcast, which just doesn't even feel possible.

But I get a lot of questions about different things about podcasting, how it works, how to get

started. And I'm actually developing a mini course that is going to be coming out next month,

along with a podcast episode where I want to answer some of your questions. So I would love

for you to tell me what it is you want to know about podcasting. You can slide into my DMs over

on Instagram. You can reply to the latest newsletter or any of my newsletters that I send out.

You can even shout out to me on threads. I would love to see you over there. Just please
