Podcasts about holiday survival

Sign up for the Private Podcast here!Every year around this time, so many women tell me they want to stay on track, and every year, they feel like the holidays wipe out all the momentum they built in the fall. If that sounds familiar, you are not alone. In this episode, I am walking you through your complete midlife holiday survival kit so you can move through December with more steadiness, more support, and a whole lot more self-compassion.I talk about why holiday stress management feels harder in midlife and why your old definition of consistency no longer fits your real life. I break down the version of consistency that actually works and how you can stay on track without relying on perfection or willpower. You will hear how a midlife body responds to stress, why the emotional load is so much heavier this time of year, and how a solid holiday routine can help you feel grounded even when everything around you gets louder.Inside this episode, I share practical tools for holiday stress management, how to create a holiday routine that gives you stability, and how to use flexible nutrition without feeling like you are abandoning your goals. I also walk through how to build an anchor meal, how to create gentle guardrails, and how flexible nutrition helps you stay on track with more ease. You will learn how to use your holiday survival kit to support your mood, your energy, and your body through the busiest time of the year.One of the pillars I dive into is flexible nutrition because midlife women do not need perfect tracking to stay on track. I show you how to use flexible nutrition to protect your energy, honor your goals, and still enjoy the moments that matter. I also share how to design a holiday routine that keeps you anchored and why the right holiday routine becomes the foundation for effective holiday stress management.By the end of this episode, you will know exactly how to stay on track using your own midlife holiday survival kit. You will understand how holiday stress management works in real life, how flexible nutrition supports your goals, how a simple holiday routine creates calm, and how to use each pillar to feel confident through the entire season.This is your permission to stop trying to stay on track through perfection and start learning how to stay on track with strategies that actually work for your midlife body and your real life.

EPISODE 22: DYING LAUGHING'S HOLIDAY SURVIVAL — THANKSGIVING EDITION Dying Laughing with Jessimae In this special Thanksgiving episode, Jessimae Peluso returns to her hometown of Syracuse, NY to share a comedic and heartfelt Holiday Survival Guide. From family dynamics and childhood nostalgia to managing grief during the holidays, this episode blends humor, honesty, and practical emotional tools. Jessimae covers micro-joys, boundary-setting, holiday triggers, and the surprising science behind gratitude, drawing from researchers like Dr. Robert Emmons (UC Davis), Sue Johnson, and Amir Levine. She also offers coping strategies for political conversations, unsolicited questions, and the chaotic energy of Thanksgiving Eve - the biggest bar night of the year. A warm, relatable, and laugh-out-loud guide for anyone navigating the complexity of the holidays.

Send us a textThe holidays ask a lot from anyone, and even more from someone navigating pregnancy or early postpartum. Between loud rooms, strong smells, and a conveyor belt of opinions about your body and your baby, your nervous system can hit overload fast. We dive into why this happens, how to spot it sooner, and the exact words you can use to step away without guilt or drama.You'll hear our favorite “golden ticket” exit lines that protect your peace while sounding perfectly reasonable to family and friends. For pregnancy, phrases like I'm exhausted, I need to lie down for a bit or These smells are overwhelming, I'm going to get some fresh air let you reset before stress spikes. For postpartum, baby-centered lines such as Baby needs to feed somewhere quiet or It's getting too stimulating for the baby create space for both of you to breathe. We also share boundary scripts for classic comments like Are you sure you should eat that? and You look ready to pop, using neutral redirects, the expert card, humor that disarms, and firm shutdowns for repeat offenders.We close with clean, kind ways to leave early—We're heading home, I'm at my limit today, My body's telling me it needs rest—so you can honor your limits without overexplaining. The goal isn't to win debates; it's to protect your energy, reduce overstimulation, and keep your mental health front and center during a season that can quickly become too much. If you're ready to choose calm over chaos and practice self-trust in real time, this one's for you.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs permission to leave early, and leave a quick review telling us which script you'll try first.

Thymosin Alpha 1 serves as a vital peptide that enhances immune function and response. Managing dietary choices during holidays is crucial to maintaining a healthy immune system. Stress, late nights, and sugar consumption during holidays can negatively impact our immunity. Utilizing peptides effectively can help mitigate the effects of holiday indulgences and stress. Immediate action upon feeling unwell, such as taking Thymosin Alpha 1, can aid in recovery.

The holidays are coming fast, but your goals don't have to go backward. We break down what real progress looks like with our latest InBody results and lay out a simple, sustainable plan to enjoy the season without turning six celebration days into sixty unfocused ones. Think mindful treats, smart training, and clear choices that keep momentum alive through the new year.We also share the nuts and bolts that make classes better for everyone: why the 25‑person cap protects safety and coaching quality, how no‑shows and late cancels block fellow members from training, and the crucial difference between signing up and signing in. We walk through the 5 a.m. waitlist policy, experience prerequisites for high‑pace hours, and how we make night‑before calls based on the workout. If email filters or app logins are getting in your way, we've got fixes and a direct line for support.On the community front, we preview the Christmas party with a firm RSVP system so we can plan food, share the holiday schedule with closures and half days, and drop an early registration link for HYROX Vegas. Around the facility, we're reorganizing equipment, dialing in layouts, and adding rope climbs so we can program them fairly. We also set clear standards for kids training during non‑peak classes: parent responsibility, coach approval, and a focus on coordination and safety within an adult‑first environment. Wrap it all together, and the message is simple—plan ahead, respect the room, enjoy the real holidays, and finish the year strong with a community that's pulling in the same direction.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a gym friend who needs holiday guardrails, and leave a quick review with the one tip that keeps you consistent.

Last week marked a milestone as we released our very first episode on Christmas Day, and today, we're excited to bring you our inaugural episode on New Year's Day! Similar to last week's engaging conversation with the Grumpy Old Coaches, today's episode takes on a relaxed vibe. I'm joined again by Mrs. Ward, and together we'll share some reflections—along with a glass of Prosecco—on our holiday season and its impact on our training routines and our  healthy habits. We've both appreciated the downtime, managing to maintain a workout routine while still enjoying the festivities with friends. It's a refreshing shift for me from my past approach to the holidays. So, is it Beth's influence that has fostered my more laid-back attitude, or is it simply a maturity that comes with age? Tune in and see what you think!

When it comes to sitting around that beautiful Holiday table, something happens when we're surrounded by people who love us, where the invisible adult line called independence and autonomy is blurred, wiped out somehow, and all topics seem like fair game. As vegans we need to deal with conversations about why we aren't eating the non-vegan apple pie and what's the difference if you just have "a little butter", navigate questions about grass fed beef, animals who are treated well, mom and pop farms, and the carnivore diet. If you're in recovery from an eating disorder or disordered eating you may have to listen to people talking about their exercise regimes and what diet they're on. If you're just a regular human, you may have to navigate comments on your single status, or your childless or child free status, your child raising ways, your job status, how your body has changed. Mix a large family gathering with some extended family you haven't seen in a while, alcohol, traditions and especially food traditions, and you'll find yourself in conversations around the table where you might need a few skills that run along a spectrum of brushing it off, to a little grace and understanding, to a big dose of boundary setting. This is what we'll be talking about in today's post and episode, how to set boundaries in conversations around the Holidays, whether these surround the topics of being vegan, or any other life choice or change.
