044: The Holiday Stress You Feel Is Valid - Here’s How to Cope With It


Listen Later

The holidays are a joyous time of year. Great food, spending time with loved ones, and the bright colors of holiday decorations can be so much fun! But many people feel holiday stress and even sadness - and immediately feel guilty about those feelings. In this episode, I’m sharing some thoughts that have been on my heart about how these feelings show up this time of year. If this sounds like you, I hope you find just 10 minutes to yourself this week to listen to it.

If you need tips on how to maintain good habits while traveling or entertaining family this holiday season, check out episode 21 of the podcast!

A couple key takeaways for the holiday season:

  • Your complicated feelings are valid. You are not obligated to repress your feelings in the name of “holiday spirit.”
  • It is 100% okay to make some time to be alone and recharge even if you’re with family. It’s so important to hold that space for yourself and keep the routines that make you feel great.
  • Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). I work in corporate sales by day and am a personal development guru and Life Coach by night. My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” that their good-on-paper life wasn’t lighting them up, and what they did to change that. Join us every week for a new episode of the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins!
