Thriving Through the Holidays: Maintaining Mental Health and Career Focus

Scale Up Strategies: The Business Podcast for Coaches, Consultants, and Speakers

Can you say 'No' without feeling guilty? Do you ever wonder how to integrate gratitude and mindfulness into your children's routine, or perhaps wonder when it's time to seek professional help for mental health struggles? We, Laura Bashore and Mary Fain Brandt, are here to guide you through these questions and more while sharing our personal experiences of maintaining mental health during the festive season. From the art of creating helpful sayings to effectively handle our staggering amount of daily negative thoughts to exploring individualized self-care practices, we provide an arsenal of resources and recommendations to help you navigate this merry, yet potentially overwhelming, period.
It's okay to have a bad day, but it doesn't have to ruin your whole day. We also highlight the power of gratitude, setting boundaries, and the importance of a support network. Recognizing that not everything works for everyone, we encourage you to find what suits you best and don't hesitate to seek professional help when necessary.
We emphasize the significance of maintaining a daily routine structure and offer resources recommended by Oprah for specific mental health struggles. This festive season, let's ensure we keep our mental health intact and career goals in focus.
