Now, I don't know about you, but I have some days where I feel super charged, clear-headed, inspired and ready to conquer the world. Other times? I'm so darn distracted. Oh, and don't even get me started on my energy levels after 10 pm — I'm basically just like an oversized cranky baby who needs be showered, fed and put to bed! Okay, sometimes I am all of these things in one day. And, that's completely Our energy levels, like our time, aren't meant to be limitless. Just like the battery in our phones, it's a finite resource that needs to be recharged before we can work at full capacity again. I found what has been really useful in making peace with the ebbs and flows of my energy is understanding my chronotype. Otherwise known as "sleep animals." this is a concept created by sleep specialist Dr. Michael Breus. He believes that each of us falls into one of four "body clock" categories, based on the sleep cycles of animals in natures.

Whether you scroll through Instagram, Pinterest, flip through your favorite magazine, or see holiday ads on TV, perfect versions of Christmas are popping up everywhere during the fall and winter months. While they are nice to look at and can serve as inspiration for your own holiday decorating, cooking, and gift giving, there’s a hidden danger in these perfect depictions of Christmas that you need to be aware of. The key word here is “perfect”. When you’re looking at these holiday images you’re presented with, there’s a real danger that you start to expect your own family Christmas to have the same look and feel. That’s about as realistic as wanting the perfect, air brushed body that the model on the latest fitness or fashion magazine has. Coveting a magazine cover Christmas will only lead to disappointment and a feeling of inadequacy. Today I am sharing my tips for reducing holiday stress by giving into the fact that Christmas doesn't have to be perfect.

Episode Notes Betsy Price, a Fort Worth native, was elected as the 44th Mayor of the City of Fort Worth on June 18, 2011. Price has been an active leader in the Fort Worth community for years, serving on numerous boards, commissions and professional associations. After running her own successful title company for 17 years, Price turned to public service. Since taking office as Mayor, Price has initiated a broad agenda founded in the values of fiscal responsibility, accessibility, transparency and accountability. More specifically, Price focuses her work on the basics of any growing city to ensure sustainability for future generations by promoting grassroots public engagement, supporting economic development and championing public education. Instead of sitting in cars, on the couch or in the office, Price believes in a community that naturally promotes physical activity throughout the day. Price, an avid cyclist, decided to use her love of cycling to initiate not only a wellness movement in the City, but an opportunity to break the mold of the traditional often boring town hall meeting with a casual — and active — way for residents to connect with this city's elected leaders, thus her Rolling Town Hall was born. As the City's second female mayor and longest serving mayor, Price believes that women are an integral part of the community and should be more engaged. Her newest initiative--The Appointments Project--is an effort to increase the number of women serving on civic boards and commissions. The Appointments Project hopes to help women navigate the appointment process and engage elected officials to make appointments that reflect their communities. Price continues to make time for the things that are truly important to her: family, faith and fitness. She has been married to Tom, an insurance agent, for more than 40 years and has three children. Price is also a proud grandmother to her six grandchildren. She has learn to place boundaries on her time in order to keep her priorities in line.
