Hello friends! This was supposed to be a short Merry Christmas message but became something much more. I wasn't even going to record an episode this week as I have a blocked nose and cough... but I felt compelled to speak to you all and it resulting in an honest, frank episode encouraging us all to navigate Christmas with compassion and to give yourself space and grace.Trigger Warning: There are a few moments in this episode where I speak about grief and death, if this is too heavy for you today perhaps wait for the next episode or revisit another one for your mindful moment.In this episode, I mention Tracey Brodie, a fellow coach - you can follow Tracey on Instagram at traceybrodiecoaching.🌱 Support the podcast & go deeperIf this episode supported you, please consider rating, following, or sharing it with a friend.
