Ep. 89 - The Secret to Streamlining Family Logistics with Amy Briggs

Family logistics can quickly become overwhelming when appointments, activities, school schedules, and household tasks are all competing for attention.

In this episode of De-Stress the Nest, Hannah Morgan talks with Amy Briggs, founder and CEO of Aviva, about practical ways families can simplify scheduling, reduce mental load, and create systems that make everyday life easier.

Amy shares why recurring events are so powerful, how a two-week planning window can reduce stress, and why family calendar meetings don't have to be all business.

🔑 Key Takeaways

Automate recurring appointments and tasks whenever possible.
Create shared ownership of family logistics.
Look at your calendar in two-week increments, not just one week.
Get ahead of scheduling before emergencies happen.
Build fun and connection into your planning process.
Use systems to create more freedom, not more work.

💬 Quotes from Amy Briggs

"Let's get them on the calendar. Let's make it a recurring event."
"If you're not in the habit of looking at two weeks of time, that's a great practice."
You're chiseling away little blocks of time that now are under your control."
"Put a carrot at the end of the stick."
