The Cold, Dark, Winter Months - On Your Terms
As the days grow shorter and the air turns colder, it’s easy to feel like winter happens to you. But what if that’s not the full story? In this empowering conversation, Lucy is joined by Thrive Programme Coach Shannon Sullivan to explore how to take your power back during the winter months.
Together, they challenge the idea that low mood, sadness, or ‘winter blues’ are caused by the weather - and instead, look at how our thoughts, perspectives, and choices shape how we feel. You can’t control the weather, but you can always control your mindset.
Shannon shares practical and uplifting ways to reframe how you think about the season – how to manage your thinking well and feel powerful in the choices you make, from finding joy in simple moments like hot chocolates, cosy jumpers, and crackling fires, to planning days out and embracing the unique magic of this time of year.
You’re not powerless to the ‘winter blues’, you ARE the power, which means you can learn to not just survive winter, but truly thrive through it.
