I know this time of year can get busy + stressful. So I’m keeping it short + sweet today.
If you find yourself cranky, irritable, sad, or overwhelmed by all you have to do (or all you feel you haven’t done yet), here is my Holiday De-Stress List.
You’ll be amazed at what picking one thing on this list will do for your mental + emotional state.
Keep in mind, this isn’t about covering up your feelings with a happy face sticker, or stuffing down your emotions with extra slices of pie.
It’s about taking the time to slow down + actually feel your feelings: acknowledge them, release them + let them be heard.
Once you do that, pick something on this list (or a few things) and make time for yourself.
1. Slow down.
2. Put the phone down.
3. Smile at a stranger.
4. Get out in nature.
5. Lean in + listen.
6. Breathe deeply.
7. Be here now.
8. Appreciate.
9. Repeat.
Not only will you feel much better, but you just might start appreciating who you are + how far you’ve come in a whole new way.
That is my wish for you as the year comes to a close.
In fact, leave a comment on below + let me know your favorite way to de-stress this season. I’d love to add it to my list.
Happy Holidays!

Spotlight Member + Success Breakthrough Workshop alumni had this to say about this month’s audio:
“I just got finished listening to Releasing and Rejoicing. It amazes me everytime. How at the end I feel lighter, stronger, unapologetic. Especially today. I needed to hear the things being said. I needed to hear myself say them outloud. This journey to Atlanta has been one of the hardest things in my life. I didn’t realize how much I would grow, change, learn to accept. I truly and becoming the person I would look up to as a kid. That person is no longer someone I just want to be, I can look in the mirror and see her standing in front of me. Thank you for the fire you light inside me. I feel unstoppable!”
