Episode 326 Being Authentically You During the Holidays (Encore Presentation)


Listen Later

Feeling anxious about staying true to yourself when family gatherings bring up old patterns, judgment about your spiritual path, or pressure to conform? You're not alone, and this conversation is your permission slip to navigate the holidays without abandoning who you've become.

This week, while Team TSE takes a well-deserved Thanksgiving break, we're bringing you an encore presentation of a powerful conversation between Sara and Naomi Harris (TSE's community manager and longtime member). Though originally recorded in 2023, this episode's wisdom about being authentically yourself during the holidays is more relevant than ever.

Sara and Naomi get real about the delicate dance of staying true to yourself during family gatherings - especially when your tarot cards, moon rituals, and witchy practices aren't exactly what everyone wants to discuss over dinner. The practical strategies they share work just as powerfully today as they did when we first aired this episode.

You'll discover:

    • How to set powerful intentions before family gatherings that actually protect your energy
    • The "generous assumptions" approach that helps you find common ground without compromising your values
    • Why looking for similarities (instead of differences) can transform tense conversations
    • Practical tools for integrating new traditions without steamrolling the old ones
    • The bathroom escape strategy for when you need a sacred pause (we've all been there)
    • How to hold space for "yes, and" instead of "either/or" when your spiritual path looks different from your family's
  • This is your reminder that being authentically you doesn't mean starting a family feud at the dinner table. It means showing up with intention, finding the love underneath the judgment, and remembering that not everyone needs to walk your path to walk beside you.

    Whether you're preparing for your first holiday season after your spiritual awakening or you're a seasoned witch who's tired of hiding your broomsticks in the closet when company comes over, this encore episode offers timeless wisdom for staying grounded in who you are while honoring the people you love.

    Ready to reclaim your authentic presence this holiday season? Listen now, and discover how to navigate family gatherings with grace, boundaries, and a little bit of witchy magic.
