Coach Ambereen (family-driven coach) delivers a short YouTube monologue about managing summer break by using communication and consistency to create a shared family schedule. She argues that children need structure even when they resist it, describes combining her children’s inputs into one household schedule (family time, activities, creative time, touch points) and explains setting clear work vs. family boundaries as a remote/own-boss parent. The video ends with a call-to-action inviting viewers to reach out for coaching support.

Prosperous day to you. I hope today you find that you are truly limitless. And what you focus on is actually what amplifies in your life along with mine. Hey, hey. This is Coach Ambreen for those of you who do not know who I am. And I'm a family driven coach, so it's a little bit different. I work with families with the youth to really build and facilitate a bond of gratitude, acceptance and shared values. So if you're really interested in what that is, either watch more content from me or reach out to me and DM me. And I would love to serve you. Stop on a call, see where you're at. Today's little simple lesson is something that is so very important and that comes from this concept of communication and consistency. So here in the US it is summer break time, which basically means most kids don't have a schedule and they don't want a schedule, including my very own. And what I've learned to realize is kids, although they may not want it, they do need structure. It gets them to be in a place where they're really amplifying their time, really valuing the things that they're pouring themselves into and also discovering a little bit more about what it is to be more responsible. So my little humans, although they didn't want to, they did create their own summer schedules. And what I did is kind of compiled everything that they were saying and built it into one. So now we have just one schedule that we're all following. And in it we've got family time, we've got activities, we've got creative time, and we have touch points throughout the day. So what they know is if you're up by this time, then you get to spend time with mom. And then after that is work hours. So mom won't be pouring into you until work is over. And my kids were like, why do you have to work? What? Like, why do you have to work? What is it? Because I am remote. I am my own boss. I can do whatever I want whenever I want, which is beautiful. However, it comes with turmoil if I don't set those boundaries. And so I communicated to them that, yes, you're right, I am my own boss, but I really need to also focus on work. And it's. It's summertime, so I will be a little bit flexible. However, I do need dedicated time. And for them, they're not able to grasp it. It's their summertime, they're on vacation and they're thinking, I'm on vacation too. And I keep reiterating this because let's say that you are somebody who's struggling with the same thing where the kids are off of school and all they're doing is they're on tech all day long. And as a parent you don't want that for them. How do you actually facilitate and build habits for them that are going to make them successful? How do you really carve out time where they're learning and growing and being curious about all the wonderful things in life and not really having their brain cells fry because they're on technology and on screens all day long? So if this sounds like your home and you really want some support and you want to learn how to leverage some consistency, some discipline and really uphold those boundaries that have been communicated, please reach out. I would just love, love, love to hear from you. I find it so fascinating to find out what your story is and to learn a little bit more about your family. With that said, sending you a ton of umbraji filled with goodness and joy. This is X Mom signing out. Bye.
