How to Stop Holiday Stress and Comparison: Finding Peace and Joy This Season

Does the holiday season feel more stressful than joyful? Between financial pressures, endless to-do lists, and the constant comparison triggered by social media, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. But what if this season could be different?

In this episode, we’ll uncover practical ways to:

• Break free from the trap of comparison and embrace your unique holiday season.
• Manage financial and emotional stress without sacrificing joy or connection.
• Reframe your expectations and redefine success to align with faith, love, and family.

Through heartfelt encouragement and Christ-centered strategies, we’ll explore how to let go of perfection and focus on what Advent is really about—making space for Jesus in our homes and hearts.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

1. The common holiday stressors (financial pressures, overwhelming to-do lists, and comparison culture) and how to navigate them with grace.
2. The power of reframing your expectations to focus on meaningful, simple traditions inspired by the first Christmas.
3. A practical practice for surrendering stress to God and inviting His peace into your holiday season.

This episode is your reminder that the holidays aren’t about doing more, spending more, or keeping up with others. They’re about celebrating the birth of Jesus and cherishing time with those you love.
