But we’re not stopping there.
Today’s episode is packed with real answers from 40+ powerhouse women—our incredible camp counselors—who were all asked the same question:
“If we took away all your productivity tools, hacks, apps, and systems…and you could only bring ONE back, what would it be?”
Let’s just say their answers did not disappoint.
From paper planners and time blocking to pausing for mental clarity and the magic of morning routines, these moms are sharing their most powerful tools—the ones that keep them sane, centered, and successful.
