Parenting with Impact EP230: Structure Time: Back to School with Systems That Work
Back-to-school season brings more than sharpened pencils and new routines. It is a full-spectrum shift in structure, emotion, and identity. This episode unpacks what is really happening beneath the surface for both kids and parents during this transition. From resistance to readiness, discover why slowing down, tuning in, and getting curious might be the most powerful back-to-school tools of all.
What to expect in this episode:
- Why structure can feel empowering for some and exhausting for others
- How to partner effectively with teachers (without overwhelming them)
- Why flexible systems beat rigid rules in times of transition
- What emotional cues to watch for as your child returns to school
- How parents can pace themselves with a “marathon mindset”
