If you hear the word "Maycember" and you laugh and cry at the same time, this episode is for you. The craziness of all.the.things this month, plus your body is already doing its perimenopause thing on top of it. So how do you actually get through this month with your energy, patience, and sanity intact?

In this episode of The Family Fork, I'm sharing my best practices from 23 years of mom life for surviving Maycember without abandoning your health and wellness routines. (And if you don't have a routine yet, I’m showing you how to get started today with every little time and energy!)

We're talking about the two big moves that are going to change how this month feels. Plus, I'm walking you through my own three non-negotiables, exactly how I make each of them easy in May, and what it can look like if you're starting from scratch this week.

I’m also sharing the free Maycember Survival Guide for Midlife Moms that includes all of the resources mentioned in this episode.

The exact time-blocking method I use to turn my calendar into a stress-reducing to-do list
