Listen "214. Navigating Holiday Parties Without Stress"
Episode Synopsis
Holiday parties can feel overwhelming — food everywhere, drinks flowing, social pressure from every direction. In this episode, Kara breaks down how to enjoy the holidays without relying on willpower or falling into old habits.
You’ll learn how to pause before you walk in, decide what truly matters, choose your “velvet rope” foods, handle comments from others, and use simple reset moments throughout the night so you stay calm, confident, and connected to yourself.
This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about building self-trust, one gathering at a time.
In this episode, we cover:
Why holiday parties feel so emotionally charged
The “pre-party pause” that helps you stay grounded
How to choose foods that are truly worth it
The Velvet Rope Method: deciding what makes your night special
Simple ways to step away and reset during the event
What to do about food pushers and comments
How to reflect afterward (without guilt)
Why self-trust lasts longer than willpower
If you’re ready to stay confident and avoid food stress at your next party, this episode will help you walk in calm and walk out proud.
