Back to school is here—and for moms, it might be the biggest season of the year that isn't talked about enough.

In this episode, I'm bringing together the woo and the do: what's happening astrologically as we move from Leo season into Virgo season (hello, systems and routines), why all of this fall planning is landing right in the middle of eclipse season, and why that combination makes it so easy to overcommit before the season even starts.

I'm sharing my own real-time back-to-school planning—baseball, Scouts, and music class all landing in the same season—and the honest conversation I've had with myself about what all is actually sustainable.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE EXPLORE:

• Understand how the shift from Leo to Virgo season mirrors the back-to-school transition

• See why eclipse season makes fall sign-ups feel extra high stakes—and why you can slow down anyway

• Recognize overcommitment as a compass, not a character flaw

• Get practical prompts for building white space into your fall calendar

• Feel seen in the invisible labor of back-to-school season, mama to mama

This is also a preview of a full Design Your Fall series coming in a few weeks.
