Episode Synopsis

Send fanmail to Lauren and let us know how you like the show!Ever walked into a party and felt the host’s stress hit you like a wall? We’ve been that host too—and it taught us a powerful reframe: choose your feeling before you choose your to-do list. In this conversation, we break down a simple, practical method to set the tone you want—calm, warm, playful—and actually enjoy the moment you worked so hard to create.We start by asking one question that changes everything: how do I want to feel? From there, we expand it to how do I want them to feel, because your energy leads the room. Then we get tactical with a three-step plan you can use for events and everyday life: plan for tomorrow’s you so the heavy lifting is done early, delegate generously to the capable people around you, and trust yourself enough to let go when it’s showtime. Along the way, we share real examples—from hosting to bedtime routines—that reveal how presence beats perfection and why guests remember your vibe more than your menu.To close, we offer a bonus conflict hack that works in the heat of the moment: how do I want this to end? Whether you’re negotiating with a partner or tucking in wired kids, that question points you toward peace and better outcomes without another 20-minute rerun of the same old fight. Expect practical scripts, mindset shifts, and a reminder that joy is the point—not flawless choreography. If you’re ready to lead your home, relationships, and gatherings with intention, you’ll leave with a clear path to feel-first living and results that actually stick.If this resonates, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with someone who needs a calmer way to lead their day.
