Description

You love Christmas. But you're so tired you can't even enjoy it.

Maybe you're stress-cleaning while your kids ask for snacks. Maybe you took time off but you're too exhausted to be present. Maybe you're working and judging yourself for not being festive enough.

This episode gives you the permission slips you need right now. Not tips. Not strategies. Just permission to feel however you're actually feeling.

Permission Slip #1: To not feel festive

Permission Slip #2: To take an actual break (or to work guilt-free)

Permission Slip #3: To feel however you feel

Permission Slip #4: To not have it all figured out by January 1

Journal Prompt: What permission do I actually need to give myself right now?

Sit with it. Maybe journal it. Maybe just think about it while folding laundry.

If you're tired of needing permission slips every time life gets intense, I have 90-minute Breakthrough Intensive spots opening in January. Check out the link below.
