00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:40.799 It's a big secret though, so I can't talk about it yet, but things are happening in our family. 00:01:41.119 --> 00:01:51.840 And um I just wanted to give a little update on things that have been kind of lighting me up. 00:01:52.239 --> 00:02:05.120 So around this time of year, last year, I found this amazing podcast and book called Calm Christmas by Beth Kempton. 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:09.519 And she's British, she's got the lovely, sweet little voice. 00:02:10.079 --> 00:02:13.759 And um, I think she started it in 2020. 00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.800 And I am not sure. 00:02:16.959 --> 00:02:26.319 Right now I'm I'm listening to 2023, so it's just really um I like to listen to it like right before I go to bed. 00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:38.639 And um one thing, you know, that happens with Christmas with me anyway, um, it just like comes up so fast. 00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:52.000 And I've wanted to do things, you know, to really celebrate, really feel the Christmas spirit, and um a lot of times I miss it. 00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:57.839 So listening to this podcast has me being, you know, really intentional. 00:02:58.079 --> 00:03:09.519 Another different thing that's happening this year for us is um my parents have moved permanently to Arizona, so they will be coming into town for six days. 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:24.479 And um they, you know, I talked to my mom and she, you know, was hoping, you know, she'd have good time with the grandkids and um, of course, her kids and her in-laws because she loves both of them. 00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:38.000 But um, so I got to thinking and I reached out to my brother and his wife, and we planned some things that I'm super excited about. 00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:54.399 So we're gonna uh do cookie baking one day, and then uh there's this place in the next state over, which is it's like probably not even an hour away, but it's called Sam's Christmas Village, I think. 00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:59.360 And they have these s'mores cabins, and I heard about this a couple years ago. 00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:25.759 You know, it pops up on Facebook people going to it, but you can rent this cabin for like four to five hours, and it's like a cozy cabin, and then there's bonfires outside, and they have s'mores kits, they have a Christmas market, and they have Christmas lights, like you can walk the Christmas lights, but um, so we're gonna do that with my parents, and I'm so excited for that. 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:36.639 So um, I'll have maybe a Christmas um recap on the podcast. 00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:46.560 Um, another thing that Beth talks about in her calm Christmas is like don't say like I want the perfect Christmas. 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.519 Think of like an adjective. 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:51.839 Like, do you want a calm Christmas? 00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:56.399 Do you want like a busy, exciting, fun Christmas? 00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:02.560 And um, I thought I want a nostalgic Christmas. 00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:11.040 So, you know, doing things that maybe we did as kids or, you know, back in the 80s. 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:17.199 Um, and I think we might actually go to church at the church we went to growing up. 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:31.600 Um and I don't know, I'm gonna think about some other kind of nostalgic things that I could weave into um that Christmas break, but it's got me really excited. 00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.199 And um, it's been great. 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:39.120 So I highly recommend that podcast. 00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:42.159 And uh there's a book too. 00:05:42.319 --> 00:06:02.399 It's nice to read the book, but I'm just like she talks about she's got like recipes, she's got crafts you can do, she's got um uh you know, she always has like a poem or like a little story, or and it's just like so cozy, and I think I want like a cozy Christmas too. 00:06:02.719 --> 00:06:18.159 Um, and so speaking of cozy, in one week I am going to a very intimate small retreat called Gathered, and it's going to be in New Jersey, um, Jersey Shore basically. 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:26.479 I've never been there, but um I'm so excited and um uh it will be really fun. 00:06:26.719 --> 00:06:55.439 I'm looking forward to like the connection, and it's basically just entrepreneurs, women that um I've met through um just various communities and groups that I've been in, and um we've never met in person, but you know, we've talked, sent voice notes, um attended similar like virtual events, and um I've never done a retreat, so I am super excited about that. 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:13.439 And then um this week I have been doing a uh like free online class with a woman named Alyssa Nobriga, and she is just lovely. 00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:21.519 I've known about her for a couple years, and I've just um seen her as like um a guest on different podcasts. 00:07:21.599 --> 00:07:49.439 I didn't even know she had her own podcast, but um she's doing uh a um five-day and actually she just added two days of uh training, and she's just so um, she's a psychotherapist, first of all, and she has done some live coaching on the uh training, which is so cool to see. 00:07:49.519 --> 00:08:10.240 And actually I've been doing it, she's been walking us through some of it, but a lot of it is um when we have like uh I don't know, um like a block or just like a icky feeling about something, or we're feeling um, excuse me. 00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:22.399 Um, you know, just like more of like a negative feeling about something, or like when you were feeling like yesterday we did a little exercise. 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.120 Think about a time when you were feeling really insecure. 00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:37.840 And she talks about how important it is not to get into
