Are you stuck in a bit of a victim mindset when it comes to the holiday season and you find yourself alone? It’s ‘ME Season’ around here, as Sumi and Ashley are Women Rewriting The Rules around the holidays.
Why wake up to a day full of obligations when you can be a tourist and enjoy your own city on a holiday day? When you’re feeling helpless, go help somebody else! You can offer your services to the Red Cross, Meals On Wheels, or drop off hot meals as a volunteer driver.
There’s advice galore on how to plug into community to feel that togetherness and how to create intentional friendships with people that are at the same life stage as you. As always, it’s gift-wrapped with intimate personal stories of Sumi and Ashley and how they’ve learned to take on leadership roles in their private lives.
No matter the time of year, this is an episode that will get you thinking about how you are finding your own fulfillment.
To celebrate the launch of the Women Rewriting the Rules podcast, we want to pamper you with the BEST holiday giveaway we could think of! Click here to join.
