Are you feeling the pressure of the holiday season? Maybe you’re feeling so stressed out that you non longer feel the joy that can be so abundant at the end of the year. I’m so excited to have our first guest on the episode today, my dear friend Jean is joining me to talk about how she has learned to shift out guilt for joy in her life (because there is so much of it to be had). She shares the practices that have helped her overcome the common challenges that we all face in raising children while being career driven women. I hope our conversation today can help you come back home to not only the meaning of this season, but why you do what you do each day!
