When Christmas is Hard: Reclaiming the Joy of Christmas with Alexandra Walker A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2024-09-20 | Let's face it - sometimes, Christmas can be hard. But does that mean we have to lose the joy of Christmas forever? My guest today is Alexandra Walker - and she has just written a fantastic book called "Reclaiming Christmas" in which she explores her story of how Christmas was a difficult time for her, and the steps she took to reclaim the joy of Christmas. Healing is possible, and I think that her book can be a help to many who might find the season of Christmas difficult. I admit that abuse recovery is not a "cozy" topic, but we do focus more on the recovery aspect and steps you can take towards recovery, especially in connection with the Christmas season. It's not all serious conversations though - we do also take time to talk about some of our favorite things about the Christmas season, including whether or not Brussel Sprouts should be a part of Christmas dinner... Alexandra and I invite you to sit back and relax, and enjoy this cozy conversation that brought tears of joy to my eyes! I'm excited to introduce you to my new friend Alexandra. Just so you know, I am not being paid to say these things - I think Alexandra has a genuine good product here, and I am personally benefiting from what I read in her book and from the discussion we had. Here are some links to her website and book, and you will find a full list of what she offers, including free gifts, 1:1 packages, group programmes and on-demand courses. The list is grouped into different categories - Sing After The Storm, Wellbeing Toolbox, Christmas, and Entrepreneurship. Enjoy browsing!

Christmas in the Alley: A Christmas Story by Olive Thorne Miller A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2024-06-26 | Happy Leon Day! (A day late - sorry about that...) Today I share a couple of Christmas book recommendations, and read you a cozy Christmas story called Christmas in the Alley by Olive Thorne Miller. Ann is a poor old washer woman with a heart of gold. Her husband is curmudgeon who just wants his tea and pipe. Like many people during the early 1900s they are living in extreme poverty. In spite of that, Ann often helps those in need. On Christmas Eve, she realizes that she has no money to help her and her family celebrate the day. Will there be a Christmas miracle? Probably... but what Ann does with the Christmas miracle really makes this story shine.

Then I end the episode by reading a selection from A Christmas Carol. This has been a great year for the podcast, but it's also been a long one. So I'll be taking a few extra weeks off from the podcast to rest, travel, and spend time with family. I'll see you again in late January as we'll begin Season 5!

From Nicholas to Christmas: a heartwarming story of kindness - an interview with author Kyle Poehls A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2023-12-07 | My guest today is Kyle Poehls. He is a Marine Corps veteran whose life took a dramatic turn after surviving two comas during his military service. Born in 1985, he found his passion for writing in the final years of his service, and despite facing numerous seizures and another coma just before his planned exit, he persevered. In March of 2017, he began crafting "From Nicholas to Christmas", a tale about the early life of Santa Claus. Today, with a reinvigorated outlook on life, he embodies the belief that every day should be lived as if it were the last. In today's episode Kyle walks us through his journey, and how his severe health scares inspired him to take a chance and get his book out into the world. It's a powerful story that you won't want to miss! We also talk about our favorite movies, music and more. It's a conversation that ranges from children's stories to Die Hard (Yes we think it's a Christmas movie, NO, we are not going to rehash all the arguments) to Home Alone 2 and the best character in that movie (New York City). My past couple of guests have both served in the military. After my conversation with Kyle, I reflect a few moments on the Pearl Harbor anniverary, the fear of war, and the necessity to treat each other with kindness and human dignity.

Why is Our Christmas Tree Upside Down? An interview with author Tyler G. Mitchell A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2023-12-02 | Hello everyone! Happy December - we made it to the Christmas month! Today, I have a special guest on the show. His name is Tyler Mitchell, and he wrote a new children's book called "Double Trouble and the Upside Down Christmas Tree". The book is based on a true story: "This is a Christmas story about a young family with three children, two of whom are twin toddlers who are experts at getting into trouble. This is especially true when it comes to their Christmas tree, prompting their dad to get creative and hang it from the ceiling to keep their little hands off it. The oldest son, eight, recounts the chaos that occurred before the tree hung from the ceiling. But does Santa deliver presents to homes with an upside-down Christmas tree?" The book not only tells a fun story, but it also teaches kids the value of being helpful to their parents - especially around the Christmas season! Tyler and I talk about his inspiration in writing this story as well as we chat about our favorite Christmas foods, movies, memories and traditions.

Be sure to stick around for January and February - I'll be reading the New Year's set novella, "The Chimes" by Charles Dickens, and I have lots of other fun things planned!

Where Love Is, God Is by Leo Tolstoy: A Message for Christmas A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2022-12-23 | It's almost Christmas, and today I want to give you a story and a message for Christmas. I've had a few listeners wondering if I could address some of my thoughts about the religious significance of Christmas. So in today's episode I want to talk about what Christmas means to me, what my faith means to me, and how the two are connected. I also read you a very sweet and inspiring story written by Leo Tolstoy. It's also known as "Simon the Cobbler" and it tells the story of an elderly shoe maker. One day he hears a voice - God - saying that He would come and visit him tomorrow. So that next day Simon gets up and works by his window, looking out at the people and waiting for Christ to arrive. What he sees and does in response is what makes this story a beautiful message of what God's love looks like. This is a bit more religious than what I usually do on my podcast, but I felt like it was a message I wanted to share, and in some ways needed to share. My hope is that this episode will encourage you to be kind, to do good, and to honor Christmas in your heart, and try to keep it all the year. From me and my family to all of you, I hope you have a very merry Christmas!

We Should All Aspire to be Scrooge: A Conversation with A Sherlock Carol creators Mark... A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2022-12-16 | The worlds of Arthur Conan Doyle and Charles Dickens collide! In today's episode I talk to writer/director Mark Shanahan - who's back on the show to talk more about his play A Sherlock Carol. Along for the ride is his partner in this endeavor, Drew McVety - he stars as Sherlock Holmes and is also one of the producers. After we catch up with Mark and find out all about how Drew portrays Sherlock Holmes, I subject them to another round of the Cozy Christmas Questionnaire - and it turns out these two are full of Christmas spirit, (even if one of them doesn't like Egg Nog...). I also find out that not only are these two incredibly talented people, but they are also some of the kindest people you will ever meet. So settle in for another Cozy Christmas conversation and join us as we chat about A Sherlock Carol and Christmas shopping, music, foods, and memories - and find out why we should all aspire to be like Ebenezer Scrooge!

A Cozy Crime Story: Stuffing by Edgar Wallace A Cozy Christmas Podcast 2022-12-11 | Hello! Since I've been talking to a lot of mystery writers lately, I thought I should read a classic crime story to you today - "Stuffing" by Edgar Wallace. It's basically a story of a heist gone wrong, and Wallace skillfully weaves together the stories of a poor newly married couple about to leave for Canada to start a new job, a couple of crooks, and a rich man with a safe full of money. The story is both funny and charming! A perfect read for this time of year. If you'd like to submit a question for our Q&A during our 100th episode on December 20th, you can email them to me at cozychristmaspodcast@gmail.com. In 2023 I will be doing a Cozy Christmas Book Club. If you'd like to participate, send me an email and I'll sign you up. More details to come.
