As we welcome December, we also step into one of the most emotionally layered times of the year. The holidays can bring joy, togetherness, and tradition — but they can also stir up deep emotions, tension, grief, and overwhelm. The holiday season brings with it more than decorations and traditions — it brings emotions, memories, expectations, and for many of us, old wounds. This December in Let’s Talk: Healing, Growing, & Empowered, we're creating space for both the beauty and the heaviness that can show up this time of year.
Holidays often bring us back into spaces where we feel pressure to be someone we’ve outgrown, or where unspoken tension, past hurts, or family roles reemerge. Together, we are learning that awareness is powerful. By naming what’s happening inside us, we can begin to break cycles, respond instead of react, and make more loving choices — for ourselves first.
It’s not easy to face the ways our family dynamics may have shaped our self-worth, our emotional habits, or our sense of safety. But in this community, we are unlearning guilt and shame, and replacing them with compassion, boundaries, and healing. Whether you're reconnecting with family or choosing distance for your peace, you are doing something brave.
For some, it’s silence. For others, laughter, creativity, prayer, or dancing in the kitchen. It doesn’t have to be big — it just has to be real.
This month is not about perfection. It’s about choosing you. It's about learning to honor your limits, listen to your inner voice, and build joy not on circumstances, but on connection — to yourself, your peace, and your power.
We’re so proud of every woman who is showing up — whether in person at the O’Dell Women’s Center or here in our virtual Skool community. You belong here. And whatever this season looks like for you, know this: you’re not alone.
Let’s keep growing — not just through celebration, but through self-awareness, sisterhood, and small steps toward healing.
