Every January, the same thing happens: we buy fresh planners, create a new word of the year, and concoct a plan to rebuild our entire life by January 2nd. Then, by February it has all quietly fallen apart. In this episode Sarah says you don’t have to wait. Late fall, when the new schedule has settled and the holidays haven’t hit yet, is a great time to build a few simple systems so you walk into the new year with things already running.
She shares two paths. The first is a six-week plan, one system a week, built around Thanksgiving and Christmas, starting with a brain dump and what to actually do with it afterward. The second is for the mom whose head is full, with a plan to get everything into one place before January. She also shares how to make the systems last, including a minimum viable version for hard days. If you’ve been telling yourself you’ll start in January, this one is worth a full listen. Share it with a friend who could use a head start.
