October is HERE, which means we’re entering our annual era of trying to make childhood feel like a magical fall fever dream. 🎃🍂 In this week’s episode, we’re getting into ALL things October family fun, from festive adventures and kid-friendly activities to crafts and snacks that are LOW lift and still create that childhood magic.

But we’re also talking about the less Instagrammable side of being the family magic maker: the pressure to make every season special, the mental load of planning all the things, and the inevitable meltdown when your kids couldn’t care less about the adorable activity you spent an hour setting up. 🫠 We’re getting into ways to lower the pressure, manage expectations, and remember that making childhood magical shouldn’t come at the expense of our own sanity. Enjoy!
