Episode 38
Holiday Magic or Holiday Burnout: How Can We Adjust Our Mindset?
In this episode, Megan, Caitlin, and Charlotte dive into the emotional rollercoaster of the holiday season—where the pressure to make everything “perfect” often outweighs the actual joy. With Kallie out this week (we miss you!), the moms talk holiday wishlists, mom fails, the stress behind creating the magic, and tangible mindset shifts to make this season feel lighter.
We get honest about impulse shopping, losing our minds over pre-holiday chaos, kids who mysteriously “lose” all the silverware, and the invisible load moms carry as the keepers of the magic. From learning to let go of perfection to setting boundaries and prioritizing joy over logistics, this episode is for any mom who wants a more peaceful, intentional, and meaningful holiday season.
We wrap things up with Pits and Peaks, including Caitlin’s unexpected joy watching a squirrel indulge in the rotting pumpkin on her deck, Charlotte’s peak of finally having a lawn crew clean up her leaves, and Megan’s pit of dragging Nico to a Christmas event he definitely wasn’t in the mood for.
