"It's okay to say that two-letter word, no."
How do people manage the holiday season when it feels overwhelming? Valerie Silveira shares her wisdom on tackling holiday stress with a touch of humour and grace. In this episode, she acknowledges the pressures of the festive season, from financial strains to the emotional weight of missing loved ones. Valerie opens up about her own experiences, having once dreaded the holidays due to personal challenges.
She offers practical advice to help you keep your sanity intact, such as learning to say 'no' without guilt and keeping your finances in check. Valerie's heartfelt message encourages you to honour any feelings of loss but not let them overshadow the joy of being present with those who are still around.
By adjusting your focus and practising self-care, you'll find a way to lighten up and even laugh at the unexpected hiccups, like her memorable tale of a travelling turkey. Valerie's approach is all about finding perspective; after all, the holidays are just a few days out of the year. So why not make the most of them with a smile and a bit of laughter? Get ready to embrace the holidays with peace and joy rather than stress and obligation.
