Is it possible to plan for the unexpected? When kids have to stay home sick or a work emergency pops up and you have to throw your plan out the window, what is even the point? Why create a plan if circumstances mean you can't follow it? In this episode, I want to challenge you to see the value of your plan even when nothing goes according to plan. It gives you the information you need to be able to find a solution to whatever has popped up. It helps you see what is actually important and what is not.   And while it may not be possible to see into the future and plan for the unexpected, there are strategies you can use to make things easier when the unexpected pops up. I'm sharing three of my favorites and several personal examples of what planning for the unexpected looks like in my life as a working mom of three young kids.   If you want to learn how to create a plan that will support you even when things change, join me for my holiday planning workshop for busy, working moms.
