In this episode, we’re talking about something that comes up every single year -  the holiday season.

You know that feeling as the decorations hit the stores (earlier and earlier), and suddenly we’re all supposed to be ready for the season... but inside, we feel anything but ready?

If you’ve ever felt like the holidays just happen to you, or like you’re so busy creating magic for everyone else that you forget to enjoy it yourself, this episode is for you. It is a conversation about doing things differently this year,  with more calm, connection, and intention.

We’re slowing down to explore how to prepare your head, heart, and home for the holidays, so you can move through the season feeling grounded, peaceful, and present.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever:

• Felt overwhelmed by the expectations of a “perfect” holiday

• Wanted to simplify, slow down, and create space for peace and joy

• Longed to reconnect with the meaning behind the season

• Wondered how to prepare early, so you can actually enjoy the holidays when they arrive

  
  

We’ll explore:

• Why holiday overwhelm isn’t your fault, it’s a cultural pattern

• The five foundations of a holistic holiday season: mindset, release, routines, decor, and cyclical living

• Small, practical ways to create calm right now,  before the busyness begins

• How to shift from autopilot to alignment and rediscover joy in the season you work so hard to create

  
  

Whether you’re already sipping something festive or still resisting the sight of early-store décor, this conversation will help you find clarity, calm, and connection before the season begins.

Because peace isn’t something we find, it’s something we prepare for.
