The Empath's Guide to Navigating the Holidays

Episode Description

The holidays can also feel overwhelming when you are sensitive to energy, emotions, and environments. In this episode, I share three simple but powerful reminders to support you through holiday gatherings and the busy holiday season.

We talk about navigating crowds without absorbing everything around you, staying grounded during family events, and how to clear your energy regularly. I also share practical reminders for boundaries, both energetic and personal, and how to actually rest and fall asleep more easily, even during a busy season.

Your sensitivity is not something to push through or ignore, especially at this time of year. However, there are a lot of tools to help you feeling "normal" while you are out celebrating. 

I also want to take a moment to say THANK YOU to the Middlers! Another year of podcasting, sharing, listening, business and community would not be possible without you. Your messages, reviews, and support mean more than you know, and I am deeply grateful to be here with you. Thank you for an amazing 2025!!! 

If this episode resonated, please share it with a friend who might need it during the holidays. Sometimes a reminder at the right moment makes all the difference.

The podcast will return on January 7, 2026. See you in 2026!
