In this episode, I’m calling out the biggest myth of the holiday season—that you can make magic or “craft core memories” for your kids. You can’t. What your child remembers isn’t the matching pajamas or perfect tree—it’s how they felt. I’ll share stories from my own childhood (poverty, oranges, and pancake dinners), and how those simple, cozy moments turned into the most meaningful memories of all. We’ll talk about letting go of consumer pressure, shopping secondhand, teaching gratitude the real way, and surviving family dinners without losing your mind. This episode is your permission slip to slow down, simplify, and remember that love—not stuff—is what your kids will carry forever.
