EP16: Thriving through the Christmas & New Year Crazies when Life’s Changed
Join us in this episode as we talk about navigating the Christmas & New Year crazies. Both in general and after life’s hand grenade moments. Let’s face it, life looks different for most people in the world right now. It doesn’t matter if your hand grenade moment looks like; losing someone close, losing your job, not being able to physically be with your loved ones, financial stress or just being a little bah humbug given the year we’ve experienced to date.
This time of year can hold some real challenges for many, as well as holding some real opportunities for connection and meaning, and there’s something in this convo for everyone.
We hope to challenge and spark your thinking around why we place so many expectations on ourselves and others just because it’s a certain time of year. What setting boundaries looks like vs just doing what we’ve always done, embracing the non-traditional, contentment vs chasing highs and being ok if you’re channelling your inner grinch and don’t want to put up the Christmas Tree. And don’t even start us on the good ole “2021 is going to be my year” mantra.
We’ve got 365 days a year to continually reflect, assess and make daily constant, conscious, choices… so let’s not wait till the 1st of Jan to do that peeps.
Having been forced to navigate this time of year through our own hand grenade moments previously we’ll also share some of our learnings and the things we now do to take the pressure off and channel our inner calm. If even one of those things helps one of you in listener land then we'll be rapt. We’re excited to have you join us in the convo.
