A new year doesn’t have to start with pressure or big resolutions.

Instead, consider setting intentions around how you want to feel — and choosing small, supportive steps that work for you. You don’t have to do it all. Pick one that feels helpful right now… or save this for later.

As the year comes to a close, it’s easy to feel pressure to reflect, reset, or rush into big plans.

Here’s your reminder for this : you don’t need everything figured out. Growth doesn’t happen all at once—it happens one step at a time.

Wherever you are right now is okay. You’re doing great. 💛

The days after the holidays can feel quiet, heavy, or out of sync. Changes in routine, expectations, and energy are common this time of year—and those feelings are completely normal.

Winter can be a helpful time to slow down and focus on what supports your mental health. Small, intentional choices—like keeping a gentle routine, getting outside when you can, moving your body, or reaching out to someone you trust—can make a difference over time.

You don’t have to do everything at once. Start with one thing that feels manageable today.

Reminder: Our offices are closed today, but support is still available 24/7. If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline anytime for free, confidential support.

We asked our staff how they like to unwind during the holiday season—and these were their top five. 💙

From watching a favorite movie or show, to spending time with loved ones, enjoying good food, getting some much-needed rest, and having quiet time alone, it’s clear that small moments of care can make a big difference during this busy time of year.

There’s no right or wrong way to recharge—what matters is finding what helps you feel more like yourself.

What’s your favorite way to unwind right now? Share it in the comments.

As the year comes to a close, it’s easy to feel pressure when our feeds are full of highlight reels—celebrations, milestones, and big wins.

Here’s a reminder worth holding onto: if your main achievement this year was getting through it, that is enough. Surviving a hard season takes strength, even when it doesn’t look impressive on the outside.

If you or someone you love is feeling overwhelmed, support is available. You can call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline anytime, day or night.

Khloe was hard at work in the Olathe lobby yesterday spreading some much-needed holiday cheer. 🎄🐾

As one of our therapy dogs, Khloe helps bring calm, comfort, and connection to the people who walk through our doors—and judging by the number of smiles and pets she received, she absolutely nailed it.

A big ‘thank you’ to everyone who stopped by to say hello and share a moment with Santa’s little helper. 💛

This time of year can bring connection and meaningful moments — and it can also bring stress, pressure, or complicated emotions.

If things feel heavy, you’re not alone. Small, intentional steps can help support your mental health during busy or emotionally demanding seasons.

Here are six gentle reminders to help manage stress:
✨ Take time for yourself
✨ Set realistic expectations
✨ Remember what’s important
✨ Encourage healthy conversations
✨ Volunteer if you’re able
✨ Seek support when you need it

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or struggling, help is always available. You can call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline — free, confidential, and available 24/7.

Taking care of your mental health is always in season. 💛

This week can bring a lot of expectations, emotions, and togetherness, which makes boundaries especially important.

Boundaries aren’t about pushing people away. They’re about protecting your mental health, your values, and your capacity. It’s okay to say no. It’s okay to step away. It’s okay to choose what conversations you engage in and which ones you don’t.

If this time of year feels heavy, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to carry it all by yourself. 💚
If you need support, the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 by calling or texting 988.
