215. How to Set Boundaries During the Holiday Season (Without Feeling Like the Grinch)


Listen Later

It’s that time of year again - the holiday season is upon us! 


While the holidays can be fun and cozy, they can also be a LOT. The endless events, extra time with family, and food EVERYWHERE, it’s no wonder you feel overwhelmed on your fitness journey.


The truth though? You’re allowed to have BOUNDARIES. You can enjoy the holidays and stay aligned with your goals!


Setting boundaries isn’t about being “that” person who ruins the fun - it’s about protecting your peace. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for saying NO to something that doesn’t serve you.


Start by getting clear on what you actually want this season, and be super specific!


Remember - boundaries protect your energy, your goals, and your growth. They’re not rude, but a form of self-respect. People might not always get it, but…that’s not your problem.


If you want to stop the cycle of “falling off” and “starting over” every single January, it’s time to protect your peace and honor your goals, friend!


Episode recap:

  • Why you can set healthy boundaries AND still enjoy the holiday season
  • The truth about pressure & judgment during this time
  • How to get clear on YOUR specific goal this season
  • The power of “no” as a complete sentence
  • Normalizing being the “fit and healthy” friend (without guilt)
  • How to plan + backup plan so you can stay intentional and flexible
  • Why boundaries protect your energy, your goals & your peace
