Listen "Things To Do During the Holidays"
Episode Synopsis
This episode is a heartfelt conversation with Tralayne and Cortney centered on intentional living, meaningful connection, rest, and joy during the holiday season. In this episode, we acknowledge that while the holidays can be full of celebration, they can also feel overwhelming, and we invite listeners to slow down, be present, and choose what truly matters. We explore ways to reconnect with family through simple, intentional moments like game nights, shared meals, and honest conversations, while also giving ourselves permission to set healthy boundaries. The episode emphasizes the importance of self-care—prioritizing rest, quiet reflection, and checking in with our mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. We also shift focus toward community by discussing meaningful ways to give back and create impact beyond material gifts. As the conversation continues, we reflect on the past year with grace, honoring growth, challenges, and loved ones we may miss, before gently preparing for the new year without pressure—choosing values, balance, and intention over burnout. The episode closes with encouragement to choose peace over perfection, be kind to yourself, and remain grateful for the ways JMC has supported families this year, while looking ahead with hope to what’s coming next.
