Creating Holiday Peace Starts With You

Hey, y’all! It’s just me today, coming to you live with some thoughts straight from the heart. The holiday season is here, and  I want to share something that’s been a lifelong lesson: letting go of trying to change others and focusing on what we can control. Inspired by Mel Robbins’ new book Let Them, I reflect on the struggles and beauty of learning to let people be who they are—and letting ourselves be who we’re meant to be.I get honest with you about personal stories of addiction, heartbreak, and setting boundaries, and why this time of year can be especially hard for so many. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to fix anyone else. You just have to take care of you. Let’s chat about finding joy in the chaos, leaning into your God-given purpose, and making this holiday season—and the year ahead—one filled with peace and hope.
