In this episode, I’m sharing the mindset and simple strategies I’m leaning on to stay grounded and present during the holidays because let’s be real, it’s so easy to slip into hustle and chaos this time of year.
I talk about why I recently took a break from social media and how it helped me reconnect with real life. That break gave me clarity, and now I’m more focused on creating a season that feels good rather than just checking boxes.
Here’s what you’ll hear:


How I’m assessing what season I (and my family) are in right now


Setting realistic boundaries around events, expectations, and energy


How I’m using my Notes app to stay organized and cut the chaos


Gift ideas that feel intentional and don’t require panic-buying


My plan for simple, low-stress meals and much needed downtime


Thoughts on self-care (even in small ways) during the busy weeks ahead


A few personal stories, October reflections, and life updates — including thrifting finds, what I'm watching, and what I’m currently loving which is PINTEREST


This episode is like a warm holiday hug with a little strategy sprinkled in — if you're craving a slower, more meaningful season, I think you’ll love it.
💛 Thanks so much for tuning in — I love having you here.
