Summer Survival Guide for the Overwhelmed Mom

Welcome to The Slay At Home Podcast, the go-to spot for Type B and Type C moms who crave peace over perfection, structure without rigidity, and routines that work with real life—not against it. If your summer feels more like chaos than calm, this episode is your lifeline.

In today’s episode, we’re tackling realistic summer routines for overwhelmed moms—the kind of systems that support your sanity, not drain it. Forget the color-coded calendars and Pinterest-perfect plans. We’re talking about how to create gentle rhythms for stay-at-home moms, reset your expectations, and drop the guilt for good.

You’ll hear:

• Why summer feels so hard for Type B moms (and that you're not alone)

• The science behind lowering unrealistic expectations to reduce burnout

• How to use flexible, flow-based rhythms instead of rigid schedules

• Research-backed tips to reduce mom guilt and decision fatigue

• Easy summer hacks like anchor moments, snack stations, and tidy-up tricks that actually help you breathe

You’ll also learn how to:

• Build a realistic summer activity rotation that your kids enjoy—and that doesn’t exhaust you

• Reduce sensory overload and visual clutter with tiny decluttering habits

• Use practical strategies from psychology and neuroscience to create a summer that feels light and doable—even if your house is loud and messy

This is for you if:

• You feel like you're constantly behind and overwhelmed by the demands of summer

• You’re looking for faith-based homemaking tools that align with your nervous system

• You want to model presence, peace, and boundaries for your kids—not just perform productivity

We’re not just surviving summer—we’re reclaiming it with tiny, sustainable habits, grace-filled rhythms, and mental health-friendly homemaking strategies that leave you feeling like you again.
