But this week, I’m officially off, which means deep-cleaning mode is ON. Between organizing, decluttering, and keeping up with all the kids’ activities, it’s going to be a full but productive week!

Tips to Help You Crush This Week Like a Boss

1. Tackle Your Top Three – Instead of an overwhelming to-do list, focus on the three most important things you need to accomplish each day.

2. Move Daily – Even if it’s just 10 minutes, get your body moving to boost energy and mood.

3. Fuel Your Body – Prioritize whole, nutrient-dense foods to keep you feeling your best.

4. Declutter Your Space – A clear space = a clear mind. Take 10 minutes to tidy up!

5. Unplug Before Bed – Give yourself at least 30 minutes of screen-free time before sleep for better rest.

6. Hydrate Like a Pro – Start your morning with a full glass of water before anything else.
