Summer can feel like a whirlwind—kids are home, routines upended, and clutter seems to multiply overnight. But it doesn’t have to be that way. In today's episode, I'm joined once again by professional organizer, Tracy Showalter, for a timely conversation about how to bring calm, clarity, and structure into your home before summer kicks into full gear. Tracy shares practical, sustainable strategies to help you simplify your days, from creating kid-friendly routines and clearing seasonal clutter to setting up systems that actually last. You’ll walk away with realistic tips for managing everything from mealtime chaos to the mess of pool gear—plus mindset shifts to keep things peaceful without perfection. If you're ready for a summer that feels more intentional than overwhelming, this episode is your starting point.
