Celebrating isn’t going through the motions of what you think you should do, it’s about enjoying how you spend your time and energy with the ones you love. In this episode, we chat about celebrations…birthdays, holidays, anniversaries and all those in between. We choose to go against the grain with the way we celebrate. Here's to more blissful experiences and less stress and overwhelm when it comes to celebrating special times.
