You never know, your topic just might make it in an episode. Welcome!
In this episode of the Organized-ish Parent Podcast, I’m sharing what I learned from spending time at my kids’ school—especially during lunch hour.
Let’s just say: kids are way more capable (and opinionated) than we think.
You’ll hear what they really want when it comes to helping at home, what’s actually holding them back, and how you can start delegating chores to kids without the nagging or power struggles.
I’ll walk you through real conversations, small shifts that build independence, and practical steps to help your kids step up—so you can finally stop doing it all yourself.
🎧 Listen in and learn how to: ✅ Build trust so your kids take ownership ✅ Turn everyday routines (like lunch prep) into teamwork ✅ Reclaim time and calm at home
It’s not about perfection—it’s about partnership. Let’s raise capable kids and lighten your load, one small win at a time.
Enjoy the episode!
XO – Dianne
