The holidays are here, and while this season is supposed to be filled with joy and connection, let’s be real—sometimes it feels more like a marathon of to-do lists, social obligations, and a whole lot of pressure to make everything perfect.

  • How your nervous system reacts to holiday stress—and what you can do about it.
  • Practical, no-pressure tools to help you feel grounded, balanced, and present this season.


From perfectionism to social overwhelm, we’re tackling the holiday stressors that creep up on high-achieving women and offering easy, effective ways to reset your nervous system.
