Let's Get Real With Dani
You Don’t Have to Justify Your Choices This Holiday Season
The holidays are here… which means joy, connection, delicious food — and that weird pressure to explain every single choice you make about your own body.
Yep... We’re going there today.
In this episode, I’m getting real about what so many women feel but rarely talk about: the peer pressure, the comments, the “just have one!” energy, and the way people suddenly feel entitled to your decisions when you’re trying to take care of yourself.
We get into:
- Why people push back when you set boundaries (it’s not actually about you)
- How to say “no thanks” without over-explaining or feeling guilty
- What to do when someone doesn’t respect your choices
- The difference between support and subtle sabotage
- How to keep your word to yourself without restricting or going into all-or-nothing mode
Let me be very clear... This isn’t about saying no to every holiday treat or pretending you’re on a diet. It’s about choosing what supports you and not letting someone else’s discomfort, take over your intentions.
If you’ve ever questioned yourself, caved to pressure, or felt like you needed a “reason” to honour your own needs… this one’s for you.
If this episode resonates, it would mean so much if you liked, shared, or passed it on to a friend who needs this reminder going into the holidays. 💛
