UNLOAD !!!! As in - unload the “should” and “to do’s”, unload the need to be perfect, unload the physical and mental clutter in my life and just ENJOY summer!!

I think my word for the Summer has been “embrace”! Embrace the chaos of life with two children under 4… embrace the weather even if it’s raining one minute and sunny the next!

I've settled on FLOW for my summer word after a bit of thinking. Going with the flow and also finding my new flow - less social media and more Substack over the summer

Flow is a beautiful word Louise. It also evokes calm and leaves room for change so you have more flexibility over the summer. I hope this word serves you well x

Oo love this prompt ... will get my thinking hat on. I'm taking a summer sabbatical this year and I love the idea of having a word to keep me on track

Hi Lee, a summer sabbatical sounds perfect. I wonder how that would impact your choice of word..

I think it’s giving a completely different vibe, say compared to when I’m in work development mode. My struggle is settling on just one word 😂

It doesn’t have to be a word. I can be a phrase or a quote if you prefer ☺️
