280: 5 Simple Holiday Traditions for More Joy and Connection


Listen Later

Ever feel like your holiday traditions have turned into just another to-do list? In this episode, I’m sharing how I learned to let go of "perfect" traditions and embrace a simpler, more joyful way of celebrating. Through a little (messy) cookie-baking memory, I realized that the magic of traditions isn’t in getting every detail just right – it’s in the laughter, the connection, and making memories that feel real.

Tune in as we reframe holiday traditions to focus on what truly brings joy and connection, minus the stress. I’ll walk you through a quick exercise to help you decide if your traditions still fit your family, and I’ll share fresh ideas to make your holiday season meaningful without all the fuss. Whether you’re ready to tweak an old favorite or are curious about adding something new, this episode will help you keep the season fun, cozy, and all about togetherness.

In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

  • How to assess if your traditions still fit or if it’s time for a refresh
  • Why letting go of ‘perfect’ can bring more joy to the season
  • Simple ways to make the season special, memorable, and low-stress

So grab a cozy spot and join me for some inspiration to simplify, savor, and truly enjoy the season with the ones you love most.
