In this solo episode, I talk about the two opposite sides of holiday season: 1) the beauty of slowing down and connecting, and 2) the stress that can come with all of those to-do lists, travels, and plans. I discuss the importance of calming your nervous system — not just during the holidays, but as a year-round foundation for your health. I share simple, practical tools you can use to transition from a state of chronic stress to a more mindful and peaceful state of being. Whether you're dealing with holiday pressures or everyday stressors, this episode will help you slow down and truly enjoy the present moment.

In this episode, I’m talking all about how your mindset impacts fitness and tackling those societal pressures that push us toward the whole “exercise grind” mentality.

We’ll also get into the link between fitness and self-worth, why over-exercising can backfire, and how comparison and judgment can throw you off track.
