3 Biggest Takeaways from Today’s Episode:

Asserting Yourself with Grace: Learn the art of asserting yourself with grace when faced with intrusive questions and family expectations. Discover strategies like humor, honesty, and deflecting that allow you to navigate these situations confidently.

Boundaries and Self-Care: Understand the importance of establishing boundaries and managing responsibilities during the holidays. Explore the art of saying no, being flexible, and checking in with yourself to create a balanced and enjoyable holiday experience without compromising your well-being.

Prioritizing Personal Peace: Embrace the reality that reconnecting with hometown friends is a choice, not an obligation. It's okay to prioritize your peace and joy by focusing on meaningful moments with family rather than spreading yourself thin to catch up with everyone from your past.
