When my older daughter was in preschool, I volunteered to be the room mom.
After that year, the teacher asked if I wanted to do it again.
I said no and felt zero guilt. None.
I simply didn’t want to spend my time that way again.
Saying no made my life easier, not harder.
As the holidays approach, many moms convince themselves they should say yes to things they don’t want to do (e.g. class parties, hosting, baking, gifting, organizing, coordinating), and then wonder why they feel stretched thin and resentful by December 15.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about why holiday boundaries can feel so hard and what to do about it.
If you struggle to set and enforce boundaries, especially at the holidays, this episode will help you understand why your body won't let you say no, and what needs to change for you to protect your limits without abandoning yourself.
