In this episode, I talk about what really happens when school ends and the structure holding family life together suddenly disappears. From camps and routines to pressure, comparison, marriage dynamics, and the invisible planning happening in a mother’s mind, we unpack why summer can feel so overwhelming and why slowing down may actually be what our children need most. This episode is a reminder that you do not have to create a perfectly curated summer to be a good mother. Sometimes less truly is more.</p><p><br></p><p>Learn more:</p><ul><li>Jessica:<a href=\"http://www.instagram.com/behindeverygreatmanpodcast\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Instagram</a> |<a href=\"https://jessicaleighz.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Website</a></li></ul><p>If you enjoyed this episode, then please either:</p><ul><li>Follow, rate, and review on<a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/behind-every-great-man/id1844769964\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Apple Podcasts</a></li><li>Follow and rate on<a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/7ilDqWmXoePijTQo7giIpy\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Spotify</a></li><li>Watch our videos on our<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@behindeverygreatman1\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> YouTube Channel!</a></li><li>Connect with us on<a href=\"http://www.instagram.com/behindeverygreatmanpodcast\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Instagram</a>!</li></ul><p><br></p>","author_name":"Jessica Zubchevich"}
