A Relaxed Holiday Season

from The Mental Offload Podcast · host Shawna Samuel

The holidays are supposed to be magical.  But let's be honest – scrolling your picture-perfect instagram feed, you're feeling overwhelmed and under-prepared. For working moms, the holidays often feel like a marathon of endless to-dos, "should-dos," and societal expectations. What if you could actually come through the holiday season feeling relaxed, rather than burned out? What if you could create holidays that feel meaningful, instead of overwhelming? In this week's episode, we're tackling the mental load of holidays – and the stress it brings – head-on.  I'll share how re-designing the holidays in this way helped me let go of the perfectionism around the holidays (and let my husband wrap presents til 2am). The holiday season throws a lot our way. But this episode will show you how to emerge relaxed and in control. What You'll Learn:  The key question that will change the way you approach the holidays A simple framework to spend less time and energy on what you "should" do around the holidays How to manage your capacity so you don't overextend yourself making "holiday magic" For more information, visit The Mental Offload.
