We love food. We love traditions. We love togetherness. But we don’t love the stress and feelings of obligation and comparison that can sneak into holiday meal preparation. In Episode 142 of Edit Your Life (recorded in-person in Asha’s living room!), Asha and I share simple ways to dial down the intensity around holiday food. We share shifts in mindset, planning tips, and easy holiday dishes that will help you focus on the fun, not the fuss.
