In this episode, I’m joined once again by relationship expert Laurie Gerber. Laurie is a veteran life and love coach with over 20 years of experience helping individuals and couples build healthy, lasting relationships. She’s the founder of Laurie Gerber Coaching, creator of Master the Art of Love, and host of the “Love at Any Age” podcast.

So many of us walk into the holidays overcommitted, overstimulated, and overwhelmed, and then wonder why we roll into January exhausted and in recovery mode. Think of this conversation as a permission slip to honor your limits, pivot when you need to, and refocus on what this season is truly about: connection!
