I don't know about you, but I am trying to simplify my home, not clutter it up. And when it comes to birthdays and Christmas, I for sure do not want to clutter up the homes of the people that I love.

Gift giving is hard. It just is. Especially when I feel like everyone I know already has everything they could possibly want or need.

On today's episode I share with you some of my favorite gift ideas for the people on your list that take up little or no space at all.

Now that my son is 8 years old and in 2nd grade, my husband and I are starting to experience the complicated balancing act that comes with managing after-school activities, sports, music lessons, homework, and play dates.

Now, keep in mind we have only one child, but most of our friends have multiple kids. And I can only imagine how crazy busy life can be for them trying to squeeze everything in.

When do you know if your kids are TOO busy? And the real question is, how do you find a good balance?

A while back, a listener sent me a message that brought up this hot topic idea... and I definitely have a few thoughts about it.

As a working mom with a young child I know just how hard it can be to find opportunities to connect with your kids. Especially during seasons in life when you feel crazy busy.

On today's episode I share four key relationship-builders that you can focus on and be intentional about that don't necessarily take up too much of your time.

When you're scheduling your day, when you're writing your to-do list, when you're crossing stuff off that list, when you running around like a chicken with your head cut off, are you in fact just being busy? Or are you actually being productive.

For today's episode of Life Made Simple, we look at the difference between being busy and being productive.

I also offer you a new way to view your time and how you spend it. I then offer you some actionable tips on how to make the shift from being inadvertently too busy to being intentionally productive.

Just a little warning: I say the word "priorities" A LOT during the episode... because *spoiler* it's definitely a big factor.
