The holidays can be magical โ€” and overwhelming. In this episode, I share with you three simple ways you can make space for joy in the midst of busy family gatherings, holiday expectations, and emotional ups and downs. Using a card from the Choose Happy affirmation deck, I guide you to show up as your best, calm, and joyful self โ€” without striving for perfection. Whether you already have the card deck or want to experience its energy, these practices will help you feel grounded, present, and fully alive during the holiday season.

What Youโ€™ll Learn in This Episode:

  • How to create a 60-second joy ritual before any holiday gathering
  • How to protect your joy with gentle internal boundaries
  • How to notice and amplify small moments of joy every day

Wishing you a happy holiday season.

Cheers,

Marie
