The holidays can be beautiful — and also chaotic, emotional, and overstimulating. This episode helps you protect your peace this season with grounded, practical tools and gentle reminders for your mind, body, and spirit.

Here are the three biggest lessons I’m carrying into 2026 — the ones that stretched me, shaped me, and strengthened me this year. Inside this episode, I’m breaking them down and sharing how you can apply them to create a more aligned, peaceful, and intentional year ahead.

Most women walk into the holidays carrying far more than anyone realizes—mental load, overstimulation, routine shame, food guilt, people-pleasing, comparison, and the quiet loss of our own joy. In this episode, we name the seven most common struggles women face in December and explore why you don’t have to end your year overwhelmed or disconnected. This conversation is your reminder: you don’t need a perfect December… you need an intentional one. And you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Consistency isn’t about perfection—it’s about having a plan for real life. In this episode, Brittany shares how to use IF/THEN goals to stay steady through the holidays, even when your schedule, energy, or motivation get messy. Because progress doesn’t come from doing it all—it comes from doing what matters most, even when it’s not perfect.

You’re not stuck—you’re just repeating an old story. In this post, we’ll walk through how to rewire limiting beliefs and build new, life-giving thought loops using the Catch, Challenge, Change framework.

We all have loops—those sneaky, repetitive thoughts that whisper we’re not enough, too late, or too far gone. This post will help you recognize what’s on repeat, catch your thoughts before they catch you, and start rewriting the mental stories shaping your life.
