Choosing Love Over Fear: Wrapping Up Christmas 2023 with guest Robert Peterpaul A Cozy Christmas Podcast

Merry Christmas! This is my Christmas episode, out a few days late I know - but Christmas is a season, not just a day, right? 
Today I wrap up season 4 and Christmas 2023 with the kindness guru himself - Robert Peterpaul, host of the Art of Kindness Podcast, returns to talk about Christmas, the importance of showing kindness (love over fear for the win!) - and we digress into one of the most interesting conversations I've ever had about A Christmas Carol. And if that wasn't enough for you, it's a good thing this episode is supersized! We also gush about our amazing spouses, our fur babies, and more. Then I end the episode by reading a selection from A Christmas Carol.
This has been a great year for the podcast, but it's also been a long one. So I'll be taking a few extra weeks off from the podcast to rest, travel, and spend time with family. I'll see you again in late January as we'll begin Season 5! 
Until then, let's remember to honor Christmas in our hearts, and try to keep it all the year.
