Chores. Just hearing the word can bring up sighs, eye rolls, or thoughts of “we should really work on that.” In today’s episode, we’re talking about why chores matter, how they help prepare our kids for life beyond our homes, and simple ways to build responsibility through everyday tasks. We’re joined by Kim Smelley—mom of three and self-described expert in “somewhat organized chaos.” Kim shares what chores look like in her family, what’s worked (and what hasn’t), and how to encourage kids when motivation is low. Whether chores are a strength or a struggle in your home, this conversation offers practical encouragement for parents.
