We started a new tradition this year — Secret Santa, matching Grinch PJs… and actually zero stress this year!
Tbh, this is exactly why I started building Outward In.
To take time off without stress.
To be present without guilt.
To wrap presents without mentally re writing my to do list.
We’ve still got washing on the table, dinner dishes, wrapping paper everywhere, and a dog who’s was soaking wet from the kids water right…
But I wouldn’t change a thing.
Secret Santa was a hit.
The kids were buzzing.
And for the first time in ages, I wasn’t stressed about having the house clean or 10 salads to make!!
It’s easy to forget why you started.
This season brought me right back to it:
Freedom, presence, family first — not just in theory, but actually lived.
Tell me — do you do matching PJs too, or are we that family? 😂👇
From my family to yours. Merry Christmas!! 🩵🩵
