About this listen

Let's talk about why smart, sensitive women get overwhelmed, resentful, and exhausted during the holidays… and how to break the caretaking pattern without guilt.


You’ll learn:

  • The difference between caring vs. caretaking
  • Why midlife makes you less willing to carry everyone’s emotional weight
  • How to stay grounded when family drama and holiday pressure spike
  • Simple tools to support the people you love without disappearing yourself


If you want to stay sane, rooted, and present this season — instead of running the whole holiday like a one-woman production crew — this episode is for you.
And. . .

This is exactly why I created HOLIDAY REWIRED.


3 live classes + 6 weeks of tiny, powerful practices + support

  • Boundaries without guilt
  • Caring without overgiving
  • Staying grounded when others are spinning
  • Presence instead of performance
  • Daily voice notes and nervous system tools
  • Real support from a midlife mentor who actually gets it


If you want a holiday where you don’t disappear…

If you want to enjoy your family instead of managing them…

If you want to feel calm, rooted, and sane…
