Description

In this episode, I open up about my love–hate relationship with the holiday season—how the joy, nostalgia, and traditions often collide with pressure, overspending, and unrealistic expectations. I share what I’ve learned about emotional spending, the myth of “perfect holidays,” and why memories consistently matter more than material gifts. I also offer simple ways to stay grounded—from meaningful, budget-friendly gift ideas to reframing the season around connection, intention, and the values that truly make it special.
