🌿My #1 holiday—and it's not even close

November 19, 2025

 

When we get to this point in the year, I'm always reminded why Thanksgiving is the holiday I so look forward to the most.

 

It’s low-pressure, familiar, and always brings me back to what actually matters before the December rush.

 

So I thought I'd share my five reasons why Thanksgiving tops my list. Maybe you feel the same...

 

  • It's all about...Family, Friends, Food, Football… and any other “F-word” you want to throw in there!

 

  • The BEST Charlie Brown holiday special—hands down.

 

  • It’s not about buying gifts or rushing around but instead being present and practicing gratitude with the people we love.

 

  • My annual “Acme” turkey victory and walking out with my free purchase!

 

  • It was my Dad’s favorite holiday—so it's very near and dear to me and feels like a quiet way of honoring him.💗

     

🦃 Let me know… Are you Team Thanksgiving? Or do you have another favorite holiday?

 

As we head into the holiday next week, I encourage you to take a few minutes to think about what matters most to you this season.

 

What do you want more of—and what can you let go of?

 

Then pick just one goal you really want to achieve before year end. Focus on that and create a simple plan to get there.

 

Knowing your goal—and your steps—makes it easier to stay grounded and avoid the financial (and emotional!) overwhelm December can bring.


Happy Wednesday! 🌿
