The holidays are all about cherished traditions and comfy familiarity — or are they? This episode explores the way non-traditional holidays, often spent far from home (whether we planned them to be that way or not), can expand our perspective and strengthen our gratitude for the many blessings we already enjoy.

To quote poet https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/robert-frost (Robert Frost), having the courage to take the "road less travelled" often makes "all the difference".

Have you ever spent a beloved holiday on the road, or in a way you never expected? I invite you to think about it, and perhaps journal about it, in the coming days and weeks. Watch how that extra awareness changes the way you process the current holiday season. Do you have a broader perspective? What have you learned? How have you stayed stuck? How might a new way of looking at things help you move forward with challenges and obstacles you expect to face in the coming year?

Thank you for listening!
