Why in the world should anyone desire morning or evening routines? We believe routines and rituals are key tools in setting our days -- and in maintaining work-life integration and balance, especially in the lives of entrepreneurial moms. We're going to walk you through how we create and maintain daily practices, for morning or for evening, and how these habits help us accomplish goals and hold space for the unexpected.
This is not always easy. In fact, this is the second time we attempted to capture this subject for Refreshed Life! Recently, I (Deanna) simplified my morning routine and vastly cut down the number of items I was trying to accomplish.
We both agree that routines help us be more positive, allow us space to process what is weighing heavily on us, focus us toward gratefulness, and even give us energy for the day ahead (or peace for a good night’s sleep!)
What we discuss - don’t miss it!

“We need predictable milestones that we can count on every day. We just work better when our minds and our expectations are organized.”
“When you have an intention for your day, you’re much, much more likely to hit the goal.”
