How to Fall in Love with the Holiday Season
(even if you hate everything about it)

Whether you’re:
- Trying to find the perfect gift for the picky teen in your life.
- Dreading a holiday dinner with your mother-in-law who (still) thinks you’re a bad choice for her son.
- Beating yourself up for sneaking those extra cookies you gobbled in the lunchroom … adding to the extra pounds you ALWAYS pack on this time of year.
- Dealing with the loneliness and despair you feel when you spend yet another holiday season alone with your cat while everyone around you seems to have found their happily ever after.
Let’s face it. With the holidays, there’s always some kind of STRESS.
But when you dive a little deeper into these common stressors, you discover that beneath most of them is the pressure to be, act, or participate in ways that trigger old hurtful memories or force you to go against your true beliefs and feelings about the season.
So let’s stop pretending and dig a little deeper to get to the bottom of all this angst.
In this entertaining three-hour workshop, we will dive deep to:
- Uncover potential conflicts between you and your family and friends and brainstorm simple ways to reduce the friction.
- Get clarity on what you love (and hate) about the holiday season.
- Identify 3 changes to the current way you celebrate that are more aligned with your values, so you can reduce resentment and feel more at peace.
- Learn and practice simple tools to manage your nervous system in-the-moment and on-the-fly BEFORE flying off the handle when your MIL criticizes your gravy … again!!
- Imagine your perfect holiday … so you can take back control of the seasonal experience, whatever that looks like for you.
- Laugh at our shared humanity as we all struggle to hide our imperfections and fumble our way through life while pretending everything is fine.
This workshop is for you if:
✨You struggle to love the holiday season … as an adult it feels more like just a series of chores.
✨You show up to holiday events solely out of obligation, and would like to make changes but don’t know where to start.
✨You want to resolve your holiday resentments so that you can experience at least SOME of the peace and joy that everyone else posts about this time of year.
