This week, I'm re-sharing one of the most loved Christmas episodes I've ever recorded. It originally aired last year, but so many of you told me how helpful and calming it was during the holiday rush that I knew it deserved a second round. If you're craving a little more peace and organization this season, or if you're listening for the very first time, you're in the right place.In this episode, I'm diving into the practical side of holiday prep: keeping track of gifts, making gatherings easier, organizing your plans, and navigating all the moving pieces that come with December. Whether you have kids or not, these are the real systems that have helped me stay sane through years of gifting, hosting, and juggling family schedules. I've learned so much as a wife, a mom, and someone who always seems to get stuck in charge of teacher gifts (and my hope is that what's worked for me will make your own Christmas season feel lighter and more enjoyable).This episode is packed with seven big tips, some small and simple, some truly game-changing, all designed to help you stay organized, prepare ahead, and make space for the parts of Christmas that actually matter. I hope it brings you clarity, breathing room, and a few new traditions to love.

As we move into the holiday season, many of us feel pressure to do more, give more, and be more. What if this year we focus instead on being present with childlike curiosity? Over the years, I've loved watching our grandchildren during the holidays. I often wonder how they are experiencing these moments and what priorities might look like through their eyes. Childlike curiosity softens stress, invites joy, and deepens our connections with loved ones. It can help us savor moments we might otherwise rush through. Imagine how your priorities might shift if you approached this season with the wonder of a child. I will share simple suggestions to reconnect with curiosity, practice gratitude, and embrace the kind of joy that can transform the season from overwhelming to uplifting. Now you can listen commercial free at your leisure…Click here and let's grow together: Embracing The Holiday Season with Childlike Curiosity, Lillian McDermott If you love this podcast episode, share it with a friend.

SUMMARY: The episode centers on helping business owners get ahead of the holiday season instead of scrambling once it arrives. Aaron and Terryn mix humor with practical, forward-thinking guidance, covering everything from team culture to financial strategy. They discuss creative ways to celebrate with remote teams—such as virtual holiday parties where employees use DoorDash gift cards to share a meal together—and emphasize the value of simple appreciation gestures that don't require large budgets. They also highlight the importance of using Q4 intentionally from a financial standpoint. This includes making strategic business purchases before year-end, using generosity such as bonuses or charitable matching to reduce taxable income, and leveraging seasonal buying behavior through bundled offers or gifting features on platforms like Kajabi. The conversation closes with a reminder that offering time off can be one of the most meaningful gifts during the holidays, reinforcing the broader theme: be intentional, support your team, and use the season to strengthen both your culture and your bottom line.   Minute by Minute: 00:00 Introduction and Holiday Favorites 02:57 Preparing for the Holiday Season 05:53 Creative Holiday Engagement Ideas 09:04 Generosity and Team Building During Holidays 11:37 The Gift of Time and Appreciation

Send us a textRemembering Ozzy Osbourne on his birthday. A hilariously dated Subway employee training video. Some of the wildest mishaps during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.Episode 222 kicks off December and the Holiday Season with a package of GenX nostalgia tucked neatly under the tree.It all begins with a celebration of the Prince of Darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne, on what would have been his 77th birthday. A creator of heavy metal, a celebrated icon of music, a reality TV star, and more. Ozzy transcended music and became a pop culture legend. We dive deep into his life and the accomplishments of the man himself.Awkward interactions, questionable hygiene, and seriously weak attempts at humor. You'll find all of this and more in a hilariously dated employee training video from Subway in 1993. All you need to know is there is a pie chart of customer complaints, with one of them being not wearing gloves, and the very next scene is an employee making a sub without gloves. A classic video for sure.Thanksgiving might be over but there is more turkey day fun to be had. In a new Top 5 we look at some of the biggest Macy's Day Parade mishaps. Hint: They all involve rogue balloons.There is a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule, where we look at the crazy but true story of the woman who was struck by a meteorite.You can support my work by becoming a member on Patreon.

My dad used to say: "The holidays are when we feel obligated to spend too much time, in too small a space, with people we don't really know… and spend money on things nobody needs."  That's because holiday magic has nothing to do with perfection and everything to do with expectation management. You have my permission to simplify.
