279 || [Solo] What Will Kids Going Back to School Mean for Your God-Shaped Dream? || Merritt Onsa

How will you find balance between your dreams and your kids’ school routines?

Amidst the flurry of back-to-school preparations, you may also be quietly pondering what this season holds for your personal dreams. If you’re a mom with kids still living at home, your routines (and theirs) are likely about to shift big time!

IF YOU’VE WONDERED HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TIME, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU.

For some, you’ll have more free time than you’ve had in years. (<- This is me with my youngest going off to full-day kindergarten!) Or maybe you’ll have less time because your middle school and not-yet-driving high school aged kids have activities that put you in the driver's seat (for hours and days on end).

Whatever your season of life or motherhood, you may feel tempted to rush headlong into assembling plans for your dreams. But before you do that, let’s hit “pause” and unpack what is really needed other than just more time to work on your dream.

In this solo episode you’ll learn:

  • Why it’s necessary to reflect and reconnect before filling up your calendar with tasks and To-Dos,

  • The top qualities to look for in building a supportive community around your dream,

  • How to create space for your dreams, if you don’t have a lot of time to yourself, and

  • How to overcome the fears and doubts that come when you’re getting ready to take action.
