Christmas is meant to be a time of joy and togetherness, but for many women, it also means taking on the emotional labor of keeping everyone happy. You’re juggling family dynamics, endless to-do lists, and the pressure to make everything perfect. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and like you’re running on empty.

Does this sound familiar? You’re putting on a brave face, but inside, you’re struggling with frustration, anxiety, and even resentment. You push your own needs aside while taking care of everyone else. And while you’re doing your best to stay “merry and bright,” those unacknowledged emotions keep piling up, making the holidays more stressful than enjoyable.
