1. Welcome & Announcements
I hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving (if you live in the U.S.). Can you believe it's December?!! Well, just last week we were enjoying exceptionally warm weather (almost 70 degrees) here in northern New Jersey. Then, all of a sudden, winter descended upon us overnight. I even saw a few tiny snowflakes this morning. My favorite radio station has been playing non-stop Christmas songs since Thanksgiving, and the neighborhood is all lit up with Christmas lights, but it's the icy cold air this morning that finally registered.... it's officially cold and the holidays are very near.
You have probably kicked into high gears in preparing for the holidays, and some of you might've been stressed out already. There's so much to do, and not enough time & energy for everything! Every time you say YES to something, you are saying NO to something else. I've always said that you are trading your life for whatever you spend time doing. It's important that you choose wisely about what you say yes to, so you won't end up not having time & energy for what's important to you. That's why I am offering a Teleclass and a live workshop on the topic of "Learning to say NO so you can say YES to your life".
Make sure you read the featured article "Pressure-Proof Your Holidays" for 5 key strategies to reduce stress and have more joy during the holidays.
I am always looking for ways to support you. Please feel free to contact me, either by email or by phone, if you would like to ask questions or request a complimentary trial session. I am here for you.
