🏡 The Household Systems SOP Library (Pay What You Can)

Running a home is a full-time job, but unlike a workplace, no one hands you an operations manual.

That’s why I built the Household Systems SOP Library: a collection of 35 plug-and-play SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) designed to help your home run smoothly in every season.

Think of it as your household operating manual. Whether you’re:

• Preparing for an emergency,
• Sick or postpartum and need someone to step in,
• Trying to get on the same page with your partner, or
• Bringing in a helper, sitter, or grandparent —

…these SOPs make sure everyone knows exactly what to do.

💡 How It Works

• This is a Pay What You Can resource.
• If money’s tight, take it free.
• If you’re able to support, the value is $47.
• Either way, you’ll get the full 35-SOP Library instantly through Google Drive.
