104 | The Quiet Weight of the Holiday Season

from The Executive Exhale Podcast · host Tammy Delaney-Plugowsky

Send us Fan MailThis time of year can carry a lot. At work, we are often trying to wrap things up and keep everything moving. At home, we shift straight into caregiving, hosting, travel, and trying to create meaningful moments for the people we love.On top of that, the holidays can stir up complex emotions. Grief, tenderness, longing, exhaustion, and gratitude can all exist at the same time.In this episode, I talk honestly about how stress shows up during the holiday season, how our bodies hold the weight of the year, and why pushing through is not always the answer. I also share a gentler way to relate to this season, especially if you are feeling unsure, tired, or emotionally layered.This is not about fixing anything. It is simply an invitation to slow down, notice what feels tender, and remember that you do not have to carry everything alone.Support the showCurious about working with me?
