• Holiday Magic Your Kids Will Remember – 381

  The word "magic" has come up in almost every one of my coaching session this month. If you're feeling responsible for creating a picture-perfect holiday season, you're not alone.

In today's episode, I talk about how your stress affects your child more than you realize—and what actually creates the kind of magic they'll remember.

• Why Holiday Boundaries Feel Hard and What to Do About It – 380

  When my older daughter was in preschool, I volunteered to be the room mom. After that year, the teacher asked if I wanted to do it again. I said no and felt zero guilt. None. I simply didn’t want to spend my time that way again. Saying no made my life easier, not harder. As the holidays approach, many moms convince themselves they should say yes to things they don’t want to do (e.g. class parties, hosting, baking, gifting, organizing, coordinating), and then wonder why they feel stretched thin and resentful by December 15. In today’s episode, I’m talking about why holiday boundaries can feel so hard and what to do about it. If you struggle to set and enforce boundaries, especially at the holidays, this episode will help you understand why your body won't let you say no, and what needs to change for you to protect your limits without abandoning yourself.

• Why It’s Good for Your Kids to See You Cry Sometimes – 379

  You know that lump in your throat you try to swallow when you want to hold back tears? Most of us do it automatically. We tell ourselves we have to be strong because crying will make our kids worry, or that holding it together proves we’re in control. But what if tears aren’t a sign of weakness at all? What if they’re a gift to you and your kids? In this episode, I’m sharing why sadness isn’t something to fix or avoid. You’ll learn how allowing yourself to feel it (and sometimes express it in front of your kids) can regulate your nervous system, deepen your connection, and show your kids what emotional health really looks like.
