Summary

Hi Friends,

I want to use my platform for good. I wanted to provide some thoughts and resources during this time. In this episode, provide some mindset ideas as well as practical thoughts for navigating working from home while also homeschooling kids. I share some ideas I have for involving grandparents and community members in sharing the burden of making all of this work. I hope you enjoy this and I hope it's helpful. I'll continue to update regularly about how things are going on my Instagram feed. Feel free to follow me there.

Here's my initial schedule for homeschooling my kids (Kindergarten and second grade)

Some helpful resources:

0:58.3	We need each other.
1:00.0	We really, really need each other.
1:03.8	And I wanted to share a couple of thoughts that I've been having.

1:16.3	show notes if you'd like to have some access to other resources that I have found helpful or other

1:40.5	I will be working from home.
1:43.2	I will be seeing all of my clients virtually and will have to also be
1:50.4	homeschooling my kids. So part of what I'd like to share in this episode is how I plan to navigate
1:58.5	that and what my early ideas are about that.
2:02.4	And depending on how this goes for people, if this feels helpful and supportive,
