Holiday Overwhelm


Listen Later

'Tis the Season. Fall is a holiday time in so many cultures: Halloween, Diwali, Thanksgiving, Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, New Year's…they're all on the calendar.

But whether you're celebrating one holiday or several, there's so much extra stuff to take care of. Hosting relatives, parties, religious gatherings, cooking, shopping, decorating…It's all packed into a short spurt of time, and it's overwhelming!

Holidays are high pressure for working moms. Each holiday is its own deadline, along with a new to-do list, and you somehow have to find a way to manage it on top of everything else you're already juggling.

But you don't have to resign yourself to stressful, overwhelming holidays.

In this episode, we'll tackle what really causes holiday overwhelm, and how you can make the holidays more peaceful, warm and enjoyable.

What You'll Learn:

  • The thoughts that drive overwhelm at the holidays
  • How The Barefoot Contessa (yes, really!) inspired a complete rethink in my approach to the holidays
  • One key shift you can make to ditch holiday overwhelm
