This is your lifeline before you hit the wall.
“How the F**k Do I Survive December?” is a 90-minute live online workshop for women who are done dragging themselves to the finish line.
You’ll learn exactly how to protect your time, energy, and sanity when the world turns festive and feral — so you can actually make it to the holidays without losing your sh*t or yourself.
What You’ll Learn
1. The December Burnout Curve
Why even the most capable women crash at the finish line — and how to spot the signs before you do.
2. Boundaries That Actually Hold
Simple scripts and energy cues that help you say “no” without guilt (or the two-day emotional hangover).
3. The Five-Minute Calm Reset
A nervous-system tool you can use in the chaos — at school concerts, bathroom breaks, office parties — to pull yourself back fast.
4. The Emotional Exit Plan
How to end the year clean: no resentment, no regret, and a slice of peace that’s actually yours.
