The holiday season can be beautiful, but let’s face it, it can also be a lot. Between the never-ending to-do lists, the emotional labour, the pressure to “make the magic,” and the expectations we carry (often quietly), many women end the season feeling depleted or like they’ve created the magic for everyone else, while sacrificing their own joy in the process.In this episode, Brenda offers a gentle pause before the holiday season begins… a moment to breathe, reset, and so you can show up to December with more calm, more intention, and more you. She shares insights from positive psychology, reflections from past holiday seasons (including a deeply personal story about her mom), and one simple but powerful question you can ask yourself now that can completely shift the way you move through the month ahead.If you’ve ever found yourself overwhelmed by the holidays or exhausted by the invisible load you carry, this episode will feel like a cozy conversation over a cup of warm tea with a friend.And at the end of the episode, Brenda shares a special invitation to join her brand-new 5-day virtual experience, Design Your December, beginning November 24th.In This Episode You’ll Learn:Why the holiday season drains women differently (and what to do about it)The positive psychology research behind decision fatigue, willpower depletion, and emotional labourWhy “making the magic” often comes at a cost, and how to change thatHow a pivotal moment in Brenda’s life shifted her entire approach to the holidaysThe truth about what women actually want from December (hint: it’s not perfection)One simple but powerful reflection that can help you take back your peace this seasonHow to move into the holidays with intention instead of autopilotA Gentle Invitation: Design Your December (Starts Nov. 24)If you’re craving a calmer, more meaningful holiday season, join Brenda for Design Your December, a gentle, 5-day virtual experience to help you:✨ protect your peace✨ find your joy✨ honour your energy✨ set compassionate boundaries✨ reconnect with what truly matters✨ intentionally design a December that includes YOU tooThis isn’t a course or a challenge.
