Homecoming is often a magical moment, but the days and weeks leading up to it might bring feelings of fear, anxiety, and intense anticipation. This episode offers insights to help you prepare for your long-awaited reunion with your spouse by providing expectations and coping strategies for the most joyful experience possible!

 

Bottom line: Only do what feels good and what you have the capacity for, and don’t make yourself wrong for ANY of it!

 

Here’s what we cover:

• Exploring the common feelings of fear, anxiety, and pressure before homecoming

• The key to overcoming anxious thoughts and mental preparation for the big day

• Permission to prioritize self-care and manage overwhelming emotions during this phase

• Handling decision fatigue and readying yourself for unexpected changes

• Aligning expectations and desires with your spouse post-homecoming for a smoother transition
