The holidays promise joy, but for many they amplify grief, overwhelm, and unspoken expectations. In this episode, we explore why December can feel so heavy and how to shift from survival mode to genuine connection through emotional maturity. You’ll hear a powerful client story that traces seasonal stress back to an ungrieved loss, and learn how simple mindset shifts, like turning “have to” into “choose to,” can instantly lighten the load. We break down a practical toolkit for navigating the season: naming your emotions, identifying the thoughts beneath them, and taking responsibility for what you need. You’ll also get exercises for redefining traditions, delegating with clarity, and creating holidays rooted in presence, boundaries, and love.If this speaks to you, subscribe, share with someone who needs it, and leave a review.
