What's up, dudes? It was a special based on a seminal album of the ‘80s holiday seasons! Yes, Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas and Scott Leopold from Holly Jolly X'masu are with me to talk “A Very Special Christmas Party." Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, and more celebrate with Olympians.Unfortunately, the beginning is cut off, so it's unclear how the special started. Arnold and some Olympians discuss his singing, and Barbara Mandrell recounts playing soccer, talking to a 50m freestyle swimming gold medalist. Next, DeVito and Arnold work out with some athletes. Randy Travis then tells us he thinks of food at Christmastide and sings "Winter Wonderland."Immediately following that, Susan Saint James tells us of Mark Arrowood kindness, and Mike Tyson talks basketball. Scott Hamilton and an Olympian ice skate together, and we see the entire group in church for a special reading by JFK, Jr. Finally, at dinner, everyone goes around the table lighting a candle representing their Christmas wish. Oh, and Santa shows up!"Silent Night?" Check. "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town?" Got it. Actual songs from the album? Nope. Not really. So grab your sweater, light a candle, and make wish to this episode on “A Very Special Christmas Party!"

You're at a family dinner. Someone makes a comment about your body or what's on your plate. Suddenly your chest is tight, your mind is racing, and you're already planning tomorrow's restriction or extra workout. Sound familiar? In this episode, Lindsey Nichol gives you a real-time, actionable game plan for working through triggers as they happen—not tomorrow, not after the holidays, but RIGHT NOW. Whether it's an upcoming holiday gathering, a comment from a loved one, or scrolling social media, you'll learn exactly what to do in those moments when you feel completely out of control. Lindsey walks you through six powerful steps to move through triggering situations without falling back into restriction, over-exercising, or shame spirals. This isn't theory—this is practical, do-it-now guidance that will help you act from your healed self instead of your wounded self. What You'll Learn: Why your body's physical response to triggers is actually giving you valuable information The 6-step method to work through any triggering situation in real-time How to identify what your body and emotions are actually asking for (hint: it's not restriction) The "Act As If Now" principle that changes everything about how you respond to triggers A real client story of working through a triggering family gathering Why you have to stop operating from your unhealed self and start making decisions from freedom Key Takeaways: ✨ Your body isn't broken—it's trying to protect you based on old experiences that aren't happening right now ✨ You can't heal what you won't feel—naming your emotions is essential to moving through triggers ✨ The emotions you feel during triggers exist because they once kept you safe, but you get to choose differently now ✨ What would your best self do? Your future self who's already free? Act as if you're already her—because you are ✨ One triggering moment doesn't define your recovery—how you respond does The 6-Step Trigger Game Plan: Notice Your Body - Is your chest tight? Shoulders tense? Jaw clenched? Your body is giving you information Breathe - Hand on belly, breathe in for 4 counts, out for 6. Create space between the trigger and your reaction Name the Sensation - Where is the tension? The tightness? The heaviness? What is your body saying? Name the Emotion - I feel scared. Sad. Ashamed. Out of control. Unworthy. Name it out loud Compassion - That emotion exists because it once kept you safe. Your body is being reminded of an old experience. Give yourself grace Meet Your Now Needs - What do you need right now? A break? A phone call? Food? To do the opposite action? Then ACT AS IF you're already recovered Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "What you do in the next few minutes after you feel triggered will either keep you stuck in the same cycle or move you one step closer to the freedom you're desperately craving." "You can't heal what you won't feel." "That old experience isn't happening right now. You're not that little girl anymore who learned she had to earn love or approval." "Stop operating from your unhealed self. Stop letting the wounds make the decisions. Stop letting the fear drive the bus." "You ARE that future version of yourself. She's not some distant dream. She's you—making the next right choice in this moment." Ready for More Support?

Send us a textHappy Canadian Thanksgiving!For me, this day marks the start of the holiday season - a time to pause, reflect, and feel grateful for what we have.But here's the thing: we can't wait for holidays to practice gratitude, kindness, and appreciation. Those need to be part of our everyday lives, not saved for special occasions.In this quick episode, I'm sharing why I practice gratitude daily in my journal, express love to the people I care about regularly (not just on holidays), and look for ways to delight my clients and audience throughout the year.Your challenge: Write down three things you're grateful for today and share them with me. YOu can message me on IG https://www.instagram.com/maggie.perotin.s2l/ or LinkedIN https://www.linkedin.com/in/maggie-perotin-business-and-leadership-coach/Maybe this becomes the start of a daily gratitude practice for you.And if you've been thinking about working with me, stay tuned - something special is coming (only this week for my e-mail list and social media followers s- so make sure you're one of them :)).Let's make gratitude a daily practice, not just a holiday tradition.
If you've ever hit mid-December and realized you have no holiday offer, no seasonal content, and no energy left to create either… this episode is your friendly nudge to change that cycle this year. I used to leave my holiday content and offers until the last minute — and I'd spend my holidays half-present with my family, half-panicking about Canva graphics, revenue goals, and the fact that my clients hadn't heard from me in weeks. Now, I plan my holiday campaigns in October, and I'm sharing exactly how you can do the same. You'll learn: Why late October and early November are prime buying windows for most coaching niches (and why December is tougher for self-investment offers) How to organize your seasonal marketing so you can truly take time off 10 things to consider when creating holiday content that connects and converts 10 creative holiday-specific offers — with examples for life, business, and wellness coaches — so you can adapt them to your own niche How to leverage “giftable” coaching packages and pre-sell January programs for consistent revenue without the last-minute scramble Whether you're a life coach, business coach, or wellness coach, you'll walk away with a practical plan for getting your offers out early, tapping into the seasonal mindset of your audience, and protecting your time off — without sacrificing connection or income.

As the leaves turn and the air grows crisp, Winchester's Jim Barnett Park becomes a hub of activity, welcoming families and residents from across the region. In this episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Chris Konyar, Winchester City Parks Director, to explore the vibrant lineup of fall and winter events, new amenities, and the enduring community spirit that defines the city's Parks and Recreation Department. A Season of Festivities The conversation kicks off with a preview of the much-anticipated Spooky Fun event, a Halloween celebration that has quickly become a local favorite. Scheduled for October 17th, the event transforms the Parks and Rec Center into a festive wonderland, complete with trick-or-treating, a “touch a truck” experience featuring fire engines and police cars, music, costumes, and the ever-popular “boo bundle” s'mores by the fire pit. This year, a new Spooky Trolley Trail adds to the excitement, offering families a guided tour through creatively decorated scenes in the park. The fun doesn't stop there. The following Friday, October 24th, brings the Boo Bounce Bash, where the gym is filled with giant inflatables, games, and refreshments. “If you want to wear out your child and guarantee a good night's sleep, this is the event for you,” Chris jokes, noting that the event's popularity keeps families coming back year after year. Kicking Off the Holidays No sooner does Halloween wrap up than the city gears up for its annual Christmas parade, traditionally held the Monday after Thanksgiving. Janet and Chris discuss the logistics and traditions behind the parade, from the limited number of entries to the grand finale tree lighting in Old Town Winchester. The parade, which draws crowds from across the area, is a cherished kickoff to the holiday season, complete with Santa Claus and dazzling decorations. Programs for All Ages Beyond seasonal events, Winchester Parks & Rec offers a robust slate of ongoing programs. “Wee Ones Wednesday” provides preschoolers with a safe, active space to play, socialize, and participate in crafts and story time. The program's popularity has led to expanded sessions, ensuring more families can take part. Youth sports are another cornerstone, with basketball leagues for children ages five to fourteen and swim lessons in the indoor pool. Chris emphasizes the importance of early participation, not just for skill-building but for fostering teamwork and confidence. The department's inclusive approach means that both city residents and non-residents are welcome, with only minor differences in program fees. New Amenities and Improvements The conversation also highlights recent upgrades and additions to the park. A state-of-the-art golf simulator now allows golfers to practice and play virtual rounds year-round, regardless of weather. The park has also seen infrastructure improvements, including new restrooms, fencing, and dugouts at the Handley softball field, as well as enhanced lighting for safety and evening events. A Regional Destination Janet and Chris are quick to point out that Jim Barnett Park is more than just a city park—it's a regional destination. With amenities like the indoor pool, diverse programming, and a welcoming atmosphere, the park attracts visitors from neighboring counties and even West Virginia. The department's monthly newsletter keeps the community informed about upcoming events, registration deadlines, and new offerings. Building Community, One Event at a Time Throughout the conversation, a common theme emerges: Winchester Parks & Rec is dedicated to building community and creating lasting memories for families. Whether it's through festive events, youth programs, or new facilities, the department's efforts ensure that everyone—regardless of age or background—can find something to enjoy. As the episode wraps up, Janet thanks Chris for his time and enthusiasm, eager to check out the new golf simulator herself. With a full calendar of activities and a commitment to continuous improvement, Winchester's parks are poised to remain a beloved gathering place for years to come.

On this solo episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie is solo and takes a moment to reflect on the extraordinary life and lasting impact of Jane Goodall—a scientist, humanitarian, and quiet force of nature who shaped the way we see animals, the earth, and ourselves. Brie shares how Jane's work inspired her to lead with empathy, stay curious, and show up for the planet in small, meaningful ways. From advocating for animals to building her own backyard garden, Brie opens up about how Jane helped shape her worldview—and how we can all carry her legacy forward.In between listener questions about soil health, composting hacks, and growing veggies in tricky climates, Brie invites you to do the simplest and most powerful thing: slow down. Sit outside, notice the wind, and give yourself permission to do nothing at all—because that's often where clarity lives. Whether it's knowing your mailperson's name, reading Jane's Book of Hope, or just saying hi to your local barista, Brie reminds us that every little act of kindness makes a difference.Let this episode be a gentle nudge to feed your soul, get curious again, and honor the earth in your own unique way.

In this heartwarming episode, Justin and Kylie share the tearful goodbyes, the bike crashes, and the surprising wisdom that came from an 11-year-old who just didn’t want the holiday to end.

KEY POINTS: Why revisiting familiar places can be deeply meaningful for families How empathy—not logic—helps calm big emotions in kids The hidden benefits of letting grandparents “spoil” their grandkids Why parents (even parenting experts!) still have emotional moments of their own How shared stories can defuse tension and strengthen connection QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: “Empathy and perspective are powerful. They stop you from getting mad at the kids and help you join them in their suffering.” RESOURCES MENTIONED: 10 Things Every Parent Needs to Know — Dr Justin Coulson The Happy Families Newsletter – sign up via form on the website ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: When your child resists leaving, start with empathy before explanation.

I've got Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas, Scott Leopold from Holly Jolly X'masu, and Vinnie Brezinsky from Huey and Bax here to talk Remote Control Christmas! Ken Ober hosted this season 3 episode.It's the infamous Christmas episode, and the round begins with the magi competing. Of course, wise as they are, they aren't too knowledgeable about classic sitcom television. Consequently, they get all the questions wrong except those about Laverne & Shirley. In round two, a set of real contestants—Joe, Keith, and Kimberly—compete for the prize. Colin Quinn sang twice, and Kari Wuhrer acted out a condensed version of A Christmas Carol. Ultimately, Kimberly's chair was flipped, leaving Joe against Keith.Eventually Joe triumphed in the Think Real Fast round, but ultimately floundered in the Grand Prize round. He only identified 5 of the 9 music videos.Melchior? Check. Balthazar? Got him. Shemp?!

Watch all our Podcasts on YouTube ? Are you about to get slammed with holiday bookings… and still don't have enough pet sitters lined up? If the answer is yes, you're not alone—and you're not behind yet, but you're about to be. In this episode, I'm here to help you get ahead of the madness. The holidays aren't just busy—they're a pressure cooker. Your clients are planning $5,000+ vacations and expecting their pet sitter (you!) to run their home like clockwork. But here's the truth: you can't deliver peace of mind if you're short-staffed, hiring reactively, or skipping the systems. So in this episode of Bella in Your Business, I'm walking you through exactly how to hire pet sitters for the holidays the smart, legal, and sustainable way. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why hiring in Q4 is harder—and what to do about it starting today The legal interview questions to ask (and what can get you sued) How to make holiday work appealing so your team doesn't quit mid-season Why clear onboarding is non-negotiable—and how to set up a 6-step process Genius ways to recruit returning college students, past staff, and local talent How to spot red flag answers that scream “I'm going to bail on you” Timestamps 04:00 – Why you must start hiring before the holidays hit—and the trends showing it'll be busier than ever 07:30 – The 6-step hiring process that filters out the flakes and sets you up to scale 11:45 – What's illegal to ask in interviews—and the exact phrases to say instead 19:30 – How to communicate holiday work expectations without sounding desperate or begging 28:00 – Creative (and proven) ways to find seasonal pet sitters, from college students to vet techs Notable Quotes “If it's not a hell yes, it's a hell no.” “You are their insurance policy for their pets and home—and you can't deliver that without a rock-solid team.” “Hiring is a leadership play, not a desperate grab.” Resources & Links: Book a 20-Min Coaching Call with Bella Join the Mastermind Pet Sitter Hiring Jump Method Transcript Welcome to another episode of Bella in your business. My name is Bella Vasta and today we're going to talk all about hiring for the holidays. But before we get started, I wanted to say ? last week we talked all about mindset. I gave you three different episodes to go check out to help with your mindset because especially now coming into fourth quarter, we're going to need all the mindset and positivity possible because it's about to get really busy. ? In that light, I would be so honored if you would like and subscribe to this podcast. Believe it or not, a lot of people actually don't subscribe to it, but they're listening to it. Our numbers are going up and I absolutely love it. So feel free to share it with anyone you want. As you see, we have ? a lot, hundreds of episodes for you to listen to. So I wanted to thank you for that. I've also been having some really amazing discussions with you guys, even out as far as Dubai. I wanna say hi to Sam if you're listening.

Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips
The calendar flips to October and the store aisles explode with tinsel—meanwhile, your heart feels heavy at the thought of the holidays. If you're a single woman or newly navigating an empty nest, those weeks between Thanksgiving and New Year's can feel like a pressure cooker of memories, expectations, and silence. We decided to tell the truth about it—and share a better way to move through it.We start by naming the hard stuff: sadness, loneliness, grief, and the ache of feeling like the odd one out at someone else's table. From there, we get practical. You'll learn how to map your emotional and physical needs, choose travel that supports them, and time your bookings to avoid sticker shock. We talk road trips that keep costs low and control high, why international travel can be a hidden bargain during U.S. Thanksgiving, and how a cruise or city break can flip the script on a day you've come to dread.We also dig into rituals that turn grief into meaning. Think small, tangible acts—gifting keepsakes that carry a loved one's story, volunteering in their honor, cooking one dish that keeps their light at the center of your table. We draw a bright line between being alone and feeling lonely, then offer concrete ways to connect: inviting yourself to a friend's dinner, gathering other solo travelers, or joining meetups at your destination. And for Christmas, we walk through choosing family time that feels safe and nourishing—or building chosen family traditions that fit who you are now.If you've been waiting for permission to design a holiday season that heals, this is your nudge. Press play, take what serves you, and start a tradition you'll actually look forward to. If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help more women find their way to joyful, self-made holidays.Support the showhttps://www.cherylbeckesch.com hello@cherylbeckesch.com Instagram @solotraveladventures50Facebook community: Solo Travel for Women Over 50 https://www.facebook.com/groups/860865768609200

Over the next four weeks I will give you ideas for making room in your home, your budget, your schedule and your heart. I know it's only October, and I promise not to play Christmas music, but if we wait until December to make room in our space, finances, calendars and ourselves, we will likely become overwhelmed and default to survival mode.
