June Jumpstart: 6 Things to Think About as You Step Into a New Month
Let’s hit reset and welcome June with fresh energy, clear intentions, and a whole lot of enjoyment!
Can you believe we’re halfway through the year already?! June is like the friendly nudge we didn’t know we needed. A chance to pause, check in with yourself since those dusty January goals, and realign with what really matters before summer sweeps us away.
This isn’t a to-do list. It’s a gentle, joy-filled check-in across six key areas of your life. Think of it like a mini makeover for your mindset, home, and habits 💜✨
🏡 1. Home Project Check-In
Okay, be honest — is there a corner of your home that’s been silently screaming for help? A cupboard you’re avoiding? A junk drawer that bites? 😅
This month, pick one project — something simple but satisfying — and give it the love it deserves.
✨ Try this: Write down 3 teeny-tiny tasks you could do this week to get the ball rolling.
👨👩👧👦 2. Kids, Routines & Summer Prep Mode
School’s still on.. for now. This makes June the perfect time to get ahead before the full summer circus rolls in 🎪
Use this month to gently plan and prep for smoother days ahead. Think: no scrambling and more flow.
💗 Start thinking about:
What kind of summer routine will keep your home feeling calm(ish)?
What activities or camps do you want to lock in now? Childcare sorted?
✨ Try this:
Make a simple “Summer Prep” checklist:
✅ Kids’ activity ideas (at home + out and about)
✅ A super loose daily rhythm that feels doable (think: play, rest, fresh air, repeat)
✅ Gradual tweaks to bedtime or wake-up time if needed
💜 Bonus tip: Get your kids involved! Ask them what they’d love to do this summer and what helps them feel good during the day. You’ll be surprised what they say!
💼 3. Career or Business Goals
Mid-year check-in time! ✨ Whether you're working from home, running a biz, or managing all the moving parts of family life, June is a great month to zoom out and ask: What do I actually want to make happen this month?
Keep it light and focused. One clear goal is all you need. Focus and clarity are your best friends here.
💗 Try this: Set one June goal and do something each day to work towards it.
💰 4. Financial Refresh
Summer fun can cost a fortune. Between iced coffees, day trips, and spontaneous spending, things add up fast. Let’s take a moment to get intentional. We are talking mixing up free and paid for activities, prepping food and drinks at home and setting up daily snack boxes that have to last 24hrs. No boredom fridge rades from those pesky kids!
💜 Try this: Save a little this month to help with the summer spend. Choose one "no-spend" zone for the month (like takeaways or impulse buys).
☀️ 5. Summer Planning
Before the summer totally takes over, let’s get ahead of it! What do you want it to feel like? Slower mornings? More fun with the kids? A proper break? Well then let this be motivation to get your head down this June and get some of those hard things ticked off the list before the summer holidays begin. Make the phone calls, get organised at home, sort your tariffs.. do the things now while the kids aren’t under your feet. Your future self will thank you for it and you’ll enjoy the kids more when they are off.
✨ Try this: Make a simple summer bucket list — just 5 fun, feel-good things that make the season feel special.
💖 6. You-Time
Let’s not forget the star of the show: you! What would nourish you this month? Maybe it’s reading on the patio, saying no more often, moving your body in ways that feel good, or simply doing nothing for 20 minutes. If you don’t plan for it.. it’s not going to happen! So plan!
💗 Try this: Block off guilt-free time just for YOU. Put it in your calendar and treat it like an appointment with someone fabulous (because... it is!).
✨ Let’s Wrap It Up: You’ve Got This!
You don’t have to do everything. Just a little reset in one or two of these areas can shift your whole month 💜
