It’s here again… that awful feeling: I’m behind.

You swore this year you’d print those adorable Christmas cards with your family’s smiling faces in front of a glowing tree, but it’s December and you haven’t even started. 

Your friends are sending you theirs, and just seeing them makes you feel guilty. 

You’re scrambling to shop for presents online, wondering how you’re going to fit it into your budget. 

And that damn elf on the shelf?

Hasn’t moved for days. 

Mama, the holidays are a stressful time for most people. 

But the truth is, it doesn’t have to be quite this bad. 

If you’re feeling behind, and like you can’t rest because there just.isn’t.time… this episode is for you. 

We talk about:

  • How to clean up after the holidays without feeling overwhelmed

  • Why you feel “behind” and what to do about it

  • Relearning how to rest, when adulting made you forget

  • How to make time to recharge when there just isn’t any time

There’s no law that says holidays have to be hard. Join me in choosing calm over chaos this year.
