With the holidays upon us, along with their manufactured capitalist joys, are you starting to feel stressed about the year coming to a close? Maybe you're beginning to feel behind as you reflect on the goals you set for 2024?

This conversation was inspired by our own personal experiences of feeling panicked when previous years came to an end. They often brought up a lot of self-judgment related to our yearly expectations and goals. Instead of truly celebrating, resting, or expressing gratitude and joy, we’d get stuck in spirals of resistance about how the year hadn’t met our expectations—or we’d project our fears onto the upcoming year.

Rather than rejoicing in all that we had done throughout the year, December became a sort of "Judgment Day," where we’d review our shortcomings and inevitably end up setting extremely high standards for the new year. This, of course, creates stress and distracts us from the present, because we're so busy thinking about what could have been or what should be next year, that we can't even be here- now.

This conversation will be a healing balm for anyone who struggles to be present during the holidays without incessant stress and self-judgment. It will empower you to initiate a sense of renewal in any given moment, rather than waiting for a future day to bring that to you.

This episode is for you if:

-You experience the end of the year with stress, panic, and self-judgment

-You tend to set New Year’s resolutions only to end up disappointed in yourself weeks or months later

-You can’t fully rest or enjoy yourself during the holidays because you’re already thinking about how to tackle 2025
