Show Summary:
We don’t know about you, but even before we were parents back-to-school time was our true New Year, not January. With the exception of the years between graduating from college and having children, life has pretty much always functioned on an August-to-May timeline. It feels like the perfect time to explore some of what we’ve learned, but have yet to put into practice on a regular basis: Welcome to New [School] Year Resolutions Week.
