How was your Christmas? Christmas Day is always so magical, but once the presents are opened and life starts to settle back into normal, I sometimes feel that quiet post-holiday letdown. Do you feel that too? That’s why I love this in-between time after Christmas. The days between December 25th and early January are actually called Christmastide — that cozy stretch where you don’t quite know what day it is, and everything feels a little slower. In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to use this season intentionally, from reflecting on what matters most, to gently starting to plan for 2026 in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming. If planning ahead ever feels heavy, especially as a busy mom, we’re going to keep this simple, light, and doable. Grab a warm drink, take a deep breath, and let’s ease into it together. Alright — let’s get started.

I pray this blesses you!

Michelle
