58. Holiday Traditions That Anchor Us + How to Let Them Evolve
As this episode airs on Christmas Eve, we wanted to pause and reflect on this season, and on the fact that this podcast has now been part of our lives for over TWO years (truly incredible)!
In today’s episode, we’re talking about holiday traditions - why they matter, why they stick with us, and why it’s also okay for them to change and evolve.
We share some of our favorite traditions we grew up with, the ones we’ve carried forward, and the new ones we’re still figuring out in our own families.
Honestly, traditions don’t need to be elaborate or exhausting to be meaningful. Some of the most memorable moments come from slowing down, staying home, and prioritizing connection over busyness!
Ultimately, our hope is that this time feels less pressured and more intentional. After all, the true reason for Christmas and this beautiful season is Jesus!
Episode Recap:
- Our reflections on over two years of the podcast
