Dear universe, can mums take back Christmas?

from Dear Universe, we need to talk!

One minute we're carving pumpkins and sending our children out to collect sweets from strangers, the next Mariah Carey's back and apparently according to the local supermarkets we're already behind with Christmas preparations. But when did Christmas become such an enormous responsibility? And when did mums stop enjoying the magic because we're too busy creating it for everyone else? This week I'm talking about the madness of modern Christmas, the financial pressures, the never-ending to-do lists and why I think we've lost sight of what really makes Christmas special. I'm taking a nostalgic trip back to my childhood Christmases, involving East 17, my grandad's racing nuts and some rather questionable family traditions. There's also a farting elf and the world's most expensive box of teabags! And I'm sharing something very special I've created this year... ✨ The Christmas Countdown ✨ A little daily dose of festive support, practical tips, money-saving ideas and hopefully some laughs along the way to help make Christmas less overwhelming and a lot more magical. 🎄 Starts Monday 9th November 🎄 Daily voice notes until Christmas Eve 🎄 Just £10 for the entire experience - one off payment, NOT a subscription! Whether you're a Christmas chaos queen like myself or a festive planning pro, there's something here for everyone. Join me here: https://amyosborne.podia.com/the-christmas-countdown Because this year, I don't want to make Christmas magical for everyone else. I'm taking a little bit of magic back for myself ❤️ And I'd love you to join me. If this episode resonates, please share it with another mum who deserves to enjoy Christmas too. Lots of love, Amy xxx
