How to Set Boundaries and Savor the Holidays
|
Hey friend! The holidays can feel like a marathon of commitments, obligations, and the never-ending hunt for the perfect gift. And it’s way too easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of it all. But what if this year, we opt out and instead gift ourselves a sense of calm and control? Enter the magic of setting boundaries. Boundaries help you protect your time, energy, and resources, allowing you to prioritize what matters most to you. They are essential during this chaotic time of year. Your Holiday Sanity Toolkit:
Setting boundaries can be challenging, especially if you are used to putting others’ needs before your own. Remember, it is okay to say “no” when something doesn’t align with your values or goals. It is okay to take time for yourself and prioritize self-care. Boundaries are the gift you give yourself! 🌟 LINKS & HIGHLIGHTS 🌟✨ My coach, Trena Little, is hosting her annual CEO Planning Day next week.

I got the idea a few weeks ago, and instead of overthinking or complicating it, I just went for it—imperfectly. The response was incredible, with several of you joining me live, and let me tell you, that hour flew by. I had a great time creating alongside everyone, and I left feeling full and inspired. I’m already looking forward to doing it again this week! Moments like this remind me why it’s...
Hey friend! Is it still okay to say “Happy New Year”? It’s not January 1st, but it feels appropriate since this is my first newsletter of 2025. In past years, my Januarys were all about big, bold goals. December was a whirlwind of vision boards, planners, and ambitious resolutions. I’d start the year buzzing with energy, certain this would be the year I accomplished it all. But by mid-January, that excitement often faded, replaced by overwhelm. Sound familiar? This year, I’m taking a...
Hey friend! Life has a way of throwing unexpected curveballs, doesn't it? For months, I've been eagerly anticipating my move back to my hometown early this summer. But what I didn't anticipate was the mental juggling act required to navigate building a new house while simultaneously selling my current one. With so much to plan for and uncertainty surrounding the completion date of our new home, my productivity and focus have taken a hit lately. It wasn't until fairly recently that I came to...
