In this special Christmas installment of 'Daily Mom Joy,' Rellie dives into a heart-to-heart with Kate Chisholm, Energy & Self Connection Mentor, about keeping your cool and setting limits on your energy spend during the festive rush. They start off with a cozy holiday hello and quickly get down to business: how do we moms keep our inner batteries charged when we're pulled in a million directions? Kate brings in her wisdom, chatting about the push-pull of doing-it-all and the need to stay rooted. They talk about the dance between our get-it-done masculine side and the go-with-the-flow feminine vibe, stressing that too much of the former can leave us running on empty. Kate drops this gem about listening to your body's whispers (or shouts!) before you're flat-out exhausted. They're all about respecting those little signs - the aches, the irritations - that tell us when to slow down. Rellie throws in her two cents, sharing moments when she shrugged off the warning signs until it was too late. All in all, the episode's a warm, friendly nudge for all the busy moms to take a breather, listen to themselves, and enjoy the holidays without burning out.
