What if your traditions could become portals to deeper connection instead of sources of stress?

In this week's episode of The Big & Small Podcast, Jason and Marit explore the art of mindful living through the lens of traditions — showing you how to embrace what truly serves you while consciously choosing what stays and what goes.

From Halloween celebrations to Christmas dinner timing, from family expectations to cultural practices, they reveal how bringing awareness to the invisible frames we inherit transforms everything. You'll discover how to honor your traditions while creating space for what genuinely fills you with connection and meaning.

This is about embracing your power to choose — keeping the traditions that light you up and reimagining the ones that don't.
