Holiday celebrations sometimes mean coming face-to-face with people who judge us -- people who think we're flaky, financially irresponsible, not successful enough -- or, you know, too uptight, frugal, and focused on work. There's no shortage of other people's thoughts about us! 

It feels bad to be criticized. Often we try to get out of that bad feeling by changing the other person’s mind, by proving that they're wrong about us. 

I want to offer a better way. It’s a powerful mindset shift that has helped me immensely.

Instead of convincing them, or agreeing with them you just -- let them be wrong about you. 

In this episode, I explain the power of this thought and also how to not make ourselves wrong. 

I offer the dynamic duo of thoughts that will help you get through the holidays with calm & confidence, even if you're seated next to judgey Aunt Matilda.
