We’ve known and seen how consumerism, materialism, and sugar have taken over Christmas. We see it, know it, and understand it…and we’re still influenced and affected by it, even when we “know better.”

I know many parents who are wanting to step out of the holiday spending swirl and get their kids less stuff this stuff this year. But many (myself included at times) are conflicted because we don’t want to let our kids down by giving them less than previous years. And yet the need for change and simplification can’t be ignored. So how do we make peace with downsizing Christmas this year?

We’ve got to get to a place where we feel confident and calm about our decision to simplify Christmas and get/give less stuff.

Listen to the full episode for tips, suggestions, and idea for how to confidently downsize Christmas gracefully with grace.

Merry Christmas! I appreciate you!
