Simplified Family Scheduling

Simplified Family Scheduling

Daily life in 2022 leaves many of us busy and distracted. Life and its quiet, nameless moments of joy can pass us by if we aren’t intentional about how we spend our time.

Today I speak with Reilly Flynn, co-founder and CEO of Lome Calendar. Reilly is here to give us tangible tips that capture both the intention and the expectation of the moment as we schedule our family’s free time; he also distinguishes between rhythms, routines, and systems as a means of curating a cohesive family schedule that works for everyone within our homes.

 

Here’s a preview:

[4:15] 4 mistakes families often make when scheduling their free time

[6:30] Thoughts on focusing less on doing and more on being

[10:30] Rhythms versus routines versus systems

[15:00] Why it’s important to include kids in scheduling

[19:30] How to best utilize a calendaring system to capture both intention and expectation
