Holiday Survival (Without Starting Over in January)

from The Stong, Sweaty, & Slightly Inappropriate Podcast · host Lindsey Petrangelo

Holiday Survival (Without Starting Over in January) December is here — which means your routine is about to get hit with a festive combination of chaos, cookies, late nights, stress, social events, skipped meals, and the annual hormonal rollercoaster you swear you didn’t sign up for. This episode is your realistic, slightly inappropriate, science-backed survival guide for getting through the holidays without blowing up your progress OR falling into the “f*ck it, I’ll start over in January” trap. Lindsey breaks down the 3 bare-minimum habits that keep your body from revolting, why being “good” in December always backfires, and how to support your hormones, gut, and sanity without restricting joy or turning into a wellness Grinch. You’ll hear hilarious personal stories, real client wins (anonymous, but straight from their weekly check-ins), and the EXACT mindset shifts that allowed women in her programs to enjoy cookies, parties, and wine while reducing bloat, cravings, and stress. 👉 Listen if: You feel like December always derails your progress You stress-eat your face off when life gets chaotic You want to enjoy yourself without undoing everything You’re bloated, tired, overwhelmed, or ready to tap out You want a no-bullsh*t plan that actually works 💥 Topics Covered: The real reason you unravel in December (it’s not food) Why “screw it, it’s the holidays” wrecks your hormones The one client who kept cookies and STILL lost bloat How under-eating fuels your stress-eating Why sleep — not salad — prevents the “holiday 10” What to do the morning after a sugar + wine bender The nervous system tricks that calm cravings FAST The bare-minimum holiday habits that actually move the needle ☕ Coffee & Chaos Tip of the Week: Trying to be perfect in December is the fastest way to start January pissed off.
