Over the years, I’ve learned how to “do” Christmas.
There were times when I was a busy mom and tried to do too much. I had to learn the hard way how to not lose my mind.
I’ve also been in more relaxed seasons where Christmas looked different and I had to learn how to navigate that.
Now, it feels like I’m back in the season I was in 30 years ago, raising two of my grandkids and having to learn this stuff all over again.
Through all of these different seasons, though, I’ve learned how to combat holiday stress. I’ve learned that that is the key to truly captivating Christmas.
Today, I want to share with you all how to do that.
Some of the holiday stress is money-based. Some of it is time-based. Some of it is even family-based.
