Can the holiday season be less stressful and more fulfilling? Well, join us, your hosts Tish and Ellen, along with our guests, psychotherapist and life coach Lois Spence and nutrition coach Ashley Muse, as we tackle this question head-on! We bring to you a profound conversation dedicated to the midlife women amongst us, where we attempt to pivot traditional holiday traditions in favor of our own well-being. Expect to discover the art of setting personal boundaries and finding your authentic voice amidst the holiday chaos.

Ever felt the weight of the world on your shoulders as you try to pleasing everyone during the holidays? Well, you're not alone. We share our personal experiences and strategies for managing stress, setting boundaries, and prioritizing self-care during the festive season. We also delve into the often ignored topic of loneliness during the holiday season, and how to find joy in new experiences – be it Volunteering or trying new hobbies.

But the holidays aren't all stress and despair. They're also about the joy of gift-giving and the thrill of new experiences. We'll help you navigate the expectations that come with gift-giving and even offer some unique ideas for thoughtful, budget-friendly gifts. And because we all know the holidays are a time for indulgence, we've roped in Ashley Muse to guide you in maintaining balance in your blood sugar for overall health throughout the season. 

So, whether you're tuning in from Melbourne, Australia, Reno, Nevada, or New Britain, Connecticut, we appreciate you and encourage you to share our podcast with your tribe – the more, the merrier!
