Back-to-school chaos? We’ve all been there—missing shoes, cold coffee, and a bus that won’t wait. But mama, you don’t have to live in breakdown mode. In this episode of It’s a Single Mom Thing, Sherry gets real about how single moms can flip the chaos into confidence with small, powerful shifts that save time, money, and sanity.

From littles to teens to young adults still at home, you’ll hear how to:

• Turn breakdown mornings into boss moves with simple family routines.
• Use a Weekly Meal & Activity Planner to tame the 5 p.m. dinner panic.
• Teach kids and teens to carry their share (yes, even financial contributions for young adults).
• Understand the real cost of disorganization—in hours lost, dollars wasted, and stress piled high.
• Reflect with guided journal questions that help you and your kids track wins, learn from mistakes, and take the next right step.

✍️ Journal Questions from this episode:

• What’s one boss move I made (or will make) this week?
• Where did chaos sneak in and trip me up?
• What’s one next step I can try (shoes by the door, Sunday huddle, grocery pick-up, teen dinner night)?
• For teens/young adults: My Win, My Learn, My Next.
• What’s my hourly rate, what did I spend on food, and what’s that costing me physically, emotionally, and spiritually?

💡 Small shifts lead to big wins, mama. You’re not running a restaurant—you’re leading a crew.
