    ✍🏻❤️ Season 2: Episode 3 - A Healing Story

    ✍🏻❤️ Season 2: Episode 2 - Stories That Shape Us

    Holiday gatherings ... it seems that we either look forward to them or dread them!  Whether your calendar is full or achingly empty, it's impossible to ignore the impact of relationships (or lack of them) in our Christmas stories.   Based on week two of my E-book, "The Blessed Christmas," this week's episode guides you through identifying and blessing the supporting characters in your Christmas story—the people who've shaped you into the person you are today. Relationships have a significant impact on your holiday season, so it's essential to navigate them with intention. Highlights: Reflect on the people who influence your holiday season and your story. Take a moment to intentionally bless each person you'll engage with this Christmas.  Identify which relationships support your joy and which may challenge you the most. A closing blessing for your relationships during these stressful weeks.  Resources / Links: Purchase The Blessed Christmas Download your Free “YOUR STORY MATTERS” worksheet Connect on Instagram: @amyjae.writer Subscribe on Substack: Gather the Magic
