This week on Big Mum Energy, Ali is climbing straight up on her soapbox because Christmas is coming, bank accounts are sweating, and the pressure to over-deliver is absolutely cooked.

In this episode, Ali dives into:

🎄 Why Christmas doesn’t have to mean maxed-out credit cards and financial stress

🎁 The myth that “big presents = good parenting”

🎮 Kids wanting Roblox, screens, and online everything — and why banning social media feels pointless if we’re not teaching balance

📱 The contradiction of social media bans while kids live in digital worlds

😵‍💫 How mums are once again carrying the emotional and financial load of “making Christmas magical”

It’s funny, fiery, and honest a reminder that presence matters more than presents, memories beat material crap, and love isn’t measured in how much you spend.

If you’re a mum stressing about Christmas budgets, screen time, or feeling like you’re already behind — this episode is your permission slip to do Christmas your way.

Pull up a chair. Pour a wine.

Let’s talk about the stuff no one else will.
