It's the most wonderful time of the year...but is it really?

The pressure! The expectations! The demands! We get it, it's a lot. What parent doesn't want the holidays to be "special" for our families, but if you aren't actually having fun, what's the point? We believe that doing less -- and increasing our personal joy -- is a worthwhile trade-off and if that sounds good to you, this is the workshop for you!

In this short workshop, we'll teach you a simple three-step process that will help:

• stop "shoulding" on yourself
• help you strategically decide what you will and won't do this holiday season
• create an actionable plan with deadlines attached so that you can space out all the things that need doing

In this engaging 30-minute talk, we will explore 4 key strategies to make your holiday season unlike any other. We'll delve into the art of setting clear expectations with loved ones, master the skill of managing holiday stress, navigate those tricky holiday triggers, and rediscover and connect with the deep, personal meaning that this season holds for you. I know you will walk away with the tools to make 2023 a more joyful and fulfilling holiday season.

Cancel culture has had it’s backlash when those we disagree with are still in our environments. How do we deal with diverse belief systems and cultures in a space. DEI work has traditionally searched for a boogeyman to pin blame on. What if there is not one? The unity required to push initiatives over the finish line needs the thought, innovation and insight of diverse teams. How do we hold the diversity in a way that is authentic and inclusive to all, including the majority culture?

Forgiveness belongs in these spaces. In a way that allows people to approach each other and work without the limiting assumptions that do not bring one into a place of trust. Forgiveness is the Future builds on a foundation of commonality and compassion that brings better cooperation in any space dedicated to diversity in culture, thought and belief systems. Expected outcomes include:

More understanding of difference
Noticeable reduction in insensitive comments
Less feelings of alienation from minority cultures
More diversity in the workspace due to safer culture

Diversity is not just a fad but a genuine desire of organizations everywhere. The rub becomes how do we pursue this not in a forced fashion. But removing the prejudices and assumptions we ALL carry, we will see the connections present in all humanity.

During the beautiful chaos of the holidays, the last thing you need is regret from a hangover! Listen up as I include humorous parts of my family's story of drinking through the holidays and how we made lasting changes to the beverage menu. The joy and delight is being with loved ones and (don't forget) holding a fancy glass with a lovely beverage to enjoy the conversation and be present in the moment. I will describe the effects of drinking and the anxiety and mental health factors that encompass it as well as how it affects your holidays. I have a few great mocktail recipes and some fabulous non-alcoholic wine/champagne suggestions as well.

Are you ready to get in control of this food thing, once and for all?
If so, I got you!

Yes, everyone wants to have fun for the holidays, and in that ebullient spirit sometimes we overdo the spending. Then the Grinch appears later in the credit card statements. We are going to explore where our Money Blueprint comes from and if we have tamed or buried the beliefs that drive our spending. 

Our beliefs come from Culture, Geography, Gender, Economic, and Spiritual influences. We'll deconstruct how we began thinking about money and discover that it is a dignified and necessary part of our relationship with our lifelong financial goals. 

If you get a little cringe or gut reaction when someone mentions budget and financial accountability, then there may be some hidden beliefs lurking that create sabotage and poor money decisions. BTW this is also a great topic for your teens who will need to understand how to use not abuse credit cards when they go off to school.
