While the holiday season is typically viewed as a joyful time, the pressure of gift-giving, traveling, and spending time with loved ones can cause stress. For the LGBTQ+ community, this time of year can also serve as a reminder of their strained relationships with family, which can lead to feelings of loneliness and isolation.
In this episode, we’re navigating the LGBTQ+ community’s complicated relationship with the holidays and discussing tips to get through these difficult times.

"It's the most, wonderful time of the year..." until it isn't.
In this episode, Amanda Valantine joins us again to discuss this "most wonderful time of the year" from the perspective of people who struggle this time of year.
Many times, the holidays are incredibly difficult. They are reminders of those who are no longer with us. They are a reminder of traditions broken through divorce or broken families. For others, it is just plain stressful.
Amanda offers tips and plans to guide you through this holiday season.

In this episode, Amber delves into the topic of empaths and the challenges they may face during the holiday season. She begins by explaining what it means to be an empath and how these individuals are highly attuned to the emotions and energies of those around them. For empaths, the hustle and bustle of the holidays can be overwhelming, as they tend to absorb and feel the emotions of others more intensely.
Amber then provides valuable tips and strategies for energetically sensitive people to manage their energy during holiday gatherings. She emphasizes the importance of self-care and setting boundaries to protect one's energy. From practicing mindfulness and grounding techniques to taking breaks and finding moments of solitude, Amber offers practical advice for empaths to navigate the holiday season with greater ease and harmony.
Additionally, Amber highlights the significance of identifying if you are an empath or recognizing someone who possesses this trait. By understanding and acknowledging one's empathic nature, individuals can better comprehend their own experiences and effectively communicate their needs to others. Amber shares key characteristics and traits of empaths, empowering listeners to gain a deeper understanding of themselves or someone they know.
Overall, this episode serves as a guide for empaths and energetically sensitive individuals to embrace self-care and navigate the holiday season in a way that honors their unique needs and abilities. Through insightful tips and a deeper understanding of empathic traits, Amber provides a roadmap for a more peaceful and harmonious holiday experience.

Are you tired? Do you get sick more frequently? Have you recently had surgery? Are you dreading the fatigue that comes with the Holidays?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, this is the episode for you. We are told that it's OK and expected to experience slower recovery in midlife.....but is it?
In this episode we uncover truths about recovering from everything from surgery, to house-guests and everything in-between. Recovering in midlife doesn't have to be a struggle. While some amount of stress is good, too much can be overwhelming and destructive to our health, hence, our need to recover.
Take some time to listen to this episode about recovery and gain some insights into your own behavior and self-care.

Marian Sorci is a facilitator of Grief Share, an organization that provides a safe place for individuals to work through the loss of a loved one. She’s also a dear friend of mine and was a huge help when my Mom passed away just one year ago from glioblastoma.
Marian and I sat down to talk specifically about grief during the holiday season which can be particularly hard to get through after losing a loved one. Marian gives us some great tips for surviving the holidays, stepping into new traditions, and how we can support others that are grieving. This episode is an important one for every one to listen to. After the last few years, I think its safe to assume that all of us either lost a loved one or know someone that did.

Today I share with you my tips on how to survive the holidays.
For some of us the holidays can be a double edged sword, on one hand it's a time to meet with family and enjoy each others company, but on the other hand it can be an incredibly tough time for people who are working on their fitness.
Temptation is everyone around us for 90 days straight it feels like.
So in today's episode I help take a look at your holiday season from a bird's eye view to help bring some perspective to this time during the year.
We weight out the pain vs pleasure of giving into temptation versus choosing to stay on track. We talk about how to look for emotional eating or drinking and how to make sure that you only enjoy the 3-5 days that are the actual holidays instead of falling into the 90 day trap of snacks everyday.
I hope you enjoy and hope this helps you going into this festive season!
If you've been trying to lose weight, but feel like your metabolism is broken and working against you, today's episode is just for you!

Join us in today's episode to discover 3 easy steps to kick start your metabolism once and for all, so you can have it working FOR you instead of AGAINST you.
