The holidays are just around the corner—full of magic, memories, and, let’s be real, a little bit of chaos too. But what if we could tackle the season with a little more calm and a lot more grace? In this episode, we’re pulling wisdom from Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements to help you enjoy the holidays without losing your mind.

We’re talking about how to:
🎁 Keep your words kind (even when Uncle Joe brings up politics).
🎄 Not take Aunt Linda’s parenting advice personally.
🍪 Avoid assuming your toddler will sit quietly through dinner.
✨ And do your absolute best—you've got this!

Let’s get real about what it takes to make the holidays joyful (or at least less stressful). Grab a cup of cocoa (or a mimosa), and let’s figure this out together! 🎉
