Calm & Confident with Trina Gray

41. The Little Things Are the Big Things (Holiday Edition)


Listen Later

In this episode, I shared a phrase that we are all familiar with: "The little things are the big things." I first heard this advice as a young mom. Older parents often reminded me to cherish the small moments with my kids, not just the big vacations for birthday parties. I listened, even when life was busy. I paid more attention to conversation in the car, going out for pancakes, taking a walk together with the dogs. These smaller moments made up my life as a mom. The same can be true in marriage or friendship – the kind text message or note by the coffee pot – those small acts of kindness build a better life. So as we enter the holiday season – however you celebrate – it's a powerful lesson to hold onto. It is easy to get run over by big commitments, travel, parties or other obligations. Let's ground ourselves with some of the simple, small things that we enjoy – enjoying coffee by the fireplace and stockings, listening to your favorite holiday music on a walk, sitting down to do a puzzle or a game as a family, or making a special recipe that you love.

"I challenge you to think of a couple of the little things that you've always enjoyed around the holidays, maybe some things that have been forgotten.…What are the little things that you want to do, or you want to get back to that maybe you've lost sight of." - Trina
