Tired of Holiday Chaos? 3 Gentle Shifts to Stay Grounded and Enjoy It Again

If Christmas feels loud, hot, chaotic, overstimulating, or like way too many people want something from you all at once — this episode is your deep breath.

I’m sharing the real story of a Christmas where I was sweating through matching fleece pajamas, tracking three kids’ gifts, dodging balled-up wrapping paper snowballs, answering questions from every direction, and trying to stay sane in a room with 40+ people talking over each other.

Inside, I’m giving you the 3 gentle shifts that help you stay grounded during holiday chaos without absorbing everyone’s mood, stress, or energy.

You’ll learn:
  • Why holiday chaos hits working moms the hardest • How overstimulation affects your nervous system • The 3 shifts that immediately lower overwhelm • How to step away without guilt • What’s actually yours to hold • How to stay present AND protect your peace

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
