As the year draws to a close, I want to wish you a peaceful Christmas and a gentle start to the New Year.
For some, this season is full of warmth and connection. For others, it can feel heavy, lonely, or quietly difficult — all of that is okay.
If you find yourself carrying things into the New Year that you don’t want to hold alone, support will be here when you’re ready.
Wishing you moments of rest, softness, and hope as 2025 begins ✨🎁

Some children learn early to be brave.
Not because they aren't scared,
But because they feel how much everyone else is carrying.

As Christmas approaches, those old patterns can resurface...
Staying cheerful, holding things in. Not wanting to be a burden.

If you were that child, it can help to have a space where you don't have to protect anyone anymore.

Where your feelings are welcomed, even the uncomfortable ones.

If this resonates, you're not alone.

Save this, share it or just let it be a gentle reminder that your needs matter too.

Yourself.
Not your whole town...
Not everyone at work.
Not all the school mums from the class WhatsApp group.
Not everyone else...

Boundaries at Christmas don't have to be dramatic and loud; they can be quiet choices to prioritise you and what you want to prioritise.

You - the one trying to "just get on with it" - showing up, smiling, grateful.

If you're holding the show together even though it feels like it might all come crumbling down, under the surface, you don't feel like putting on a happy face - even taking a moment to recognise that you feel like that can be huge.

It's so hard to change the habits of a lifetime, and in sessions, we might explore where that comes from, and why you feel the need to appear like everything is shining like a star on top of the tree.

We might look at ways to let things feel a little less controlled, a little more relaxed, to discover what you actually want to do, or what would make you feel good.

For now, save this as a reminder that it's okay to breathe if that feels useful.

If a silent night this Christmas is the only way to keep everyone else comfortable, but inside you are running through everything you'd like to say - that's gonna feel rough.

If that resonates for you - perhaps you'd like to explore what stops you from being able to share, or how you could feel more comfortable without having to hold it all in.

If you've learned that harmony comes at the cost of keeping your feelings hidden, it can get exhausting.

Overwhelmed? There's so much going on for so many that it's easy to feel triggered or pulled into stuff that just isn't yours.

You might like to try:
- taking a moment to pause
- noticing and naming the feeling
- without judgement, decide whether you want to take an action, or let it go

Giving it a label brings it into consciousness and can give you back choice, even in the chaos!

Trying to keep everyone happy comes at a cost, emotionally and physically.

Read more on how you can protect your peace on the blog post on my website "How to set boundaries at Christmas" - It's a complicated thing when you feel like you're trying to meet everyone's needs, and there are lots of people who find themselves feeling a little bit of dread around the holiday season.

It's a really tough one, and if that's you, it's okay to be feeling that way.

Your confidence doesn't come from having the loudest voice, it's the energy you already possess when you stop shrinking.

You've earned your space.

If you're ready to stop overthinking and start owning your calm confidence, book a free call - link in bio 😊

When you grow up feeling unseen, you learn to shrink ourselves just to keep the peace.

You don’t have to carry those old survival strategies into your adult life. You’re allowed to take up space now.
