052: Embracing the Holidays When Christmas Feels Blue Doing What Matters

It's a "WONDER-FULL" Life!  
As a wife, mom of four young adult daughters (including a set of twins), and the Founder and CEO of a residential construction firm, Victoria Mininger, definitely leads a full and abundant life!   
Victoria is a beautiful Type 2 on the Enneagram who embraces each day with joy and has a passion for people that is contagious! Among the valuable life lessons she so generously offers, she is vulnerable to open her heart to talk about her struggle with clinical depression and the growth she's experienced along the way. 
On this final episode of the Embracing the Holidays Series, Victoria shares about:
Her struggle with depression especially in seasons of expectations when the need to "help" others is magnified Practical ways to manage energy and embrace the winter and holiday blues How she moved to take action to become the owner of a construction company Hiring her Type 8 husband to work with her and how they lean into the 2-5-8 Harmony Triad together Her passion to "build people" beyond building things As we continue to embrace all that they hold this year–the light and the darkness, the cheer and the tears, the presence and the loss–may we continue to lean into the authentic truth of who we are–head, heart, and gut to know that our whole stories matter and we get to bring them forward because "everything belongs."
