Episode Synopsis

In this honest solo episode, Katie shares what's coming up for her as December begins—resistance, overwhelm, perfectionism, small-space stress, seasonal energy dips, and the pressure to "make magic" during the holidays. Instead of powering through it, she slows down and walks through the SEE–SAY–FEEL–DO framework in real time to bring intention, clarity, and compassion into the season. If you're feeling behind, heavy, stretched thin, or unsure how to make the holidays feel good for you, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. Listen In If You've Ever Felt: Overwhelmed by the holiday mental load Pressure to buy, curate, or perform your way into "magic" Exhausted before the season even begins Triggered by small-space decorating or clutter A dip in energy or mood as the days get darker Like you're doing the emotional labor and planning alone Unsure how you want the holidays to feel Resources Mentioned: Behind the Mic email list Office Hours with Kendra and Katie It Gets Better Now Coaching with Kendra The Minimalist Christmas by Meg Nordmann
