Finding Peace and Authenticity: Holiday Self-Care and Letting Go of Expectations

As the holiday season approaches, we explore the delicate balance of staying true to ourselves while navigating traditions, family dynamics, and societal expectations. In this episode, we share personal experiences about the stress of conforming to holiday norms, the freedom of creating new traditions, and the transformative power of setting boundaries. Together, we uncover the importance of self-care, self-regulation, and choosing love over old patterns during this busy time of year.

Hello, listeners! 💛 

We're back, and this week we're preparing for the holidays...
