Feeling anxious, overlooked, or way too focused on your partner this Christmas? 🎄

This episode shows you why putting yourself FIRST is the thing that actually brings your partner closer… not further away.

If you’ve been carrying the whole holiday on your shoulders…

If you’re replaying his texts…

If you’re trying to “make Christmas perfect” so he doesn’t pull away…

this is the episode you’ve been needing. 

You’ll hear the truth about what happens when you stop centering him…

and start centering YOU.

 

You’ll learn:

🎁 why your nervous system is so triggered during the holidays

☕️ why your anxious brain wants him to fix everything

🎄 how de-centering him stops the chasing cycle

🕯 how boundaries actually create connection

🧣 how micro-traditions make you feel grounded again

💛 why focusing on your own joy makes you more magnetic, not “selfish”

 

This is for you if you’re tired of:

✨ waiting for him to make plans

✨ walking on eggshells around his mood

✨ feeling like Christmas depends on how much he shows up

✨ shrinking yourself so you don’t “ruin the vibe”

Inside this episode, you’ll get the deeper WHY behind all of it...

the attachment science, the anxious-avoidant patterns, the nervous-system piece

all explained in simple, calm, friend-to-friend language. ✨🧣

You’ll hear the exact steps to:

✨ regulate YOUR body first

✨ create micro-joy without waiting for him

✨ set boundaries without guilt

✨ build traditions that center you

✨ stop chasing, over-functioning, and people-pleasing

 

And yes… we talk about the magic part:

how de-centering him is what actually makes him come closer.

Not because you’re playing a game…

but because you’re finally full, calm, grounded, and in your own power. ✨🎄

If you want a lighter Christmas…

a calmer body…

a deeper connection without pressure…

and a relationship that feels less like survival mode…

this episode is your reset.

Let it play while you wrap gifts, take a walk in the cold air ❄️,

light a candle, drink your warm coffee ☕️

and feel the pressure melt off your body little by little.

And if this hits home and you want help healing your anxious attachment…

my 1:1 coaching and entry-level offers are open.

You don’t have to spend another Christmas feeling like you’re “not enough.”
