The Overthinker's Guide to Joy with Jackie de Crinis | 5 Ways to Make December Your Best Month

Ep #85: 5 Ways to Make December Your Best Month

December 6, 2023

It’s December, which means everybody is busy getting ready for the Holidays, or they’re busy avoiding the festivities. You might think of December as the final push before you can take a deep breath in January. For others, it’s time for a vacation. But for some, the Holidays bring up difficult feelings of melancholy, loneliness, or obligation.

Emotions like overwhelm, incompleteness, and disappointment are common at the end of the year. This may lead us to coast through December, giving up on 2023 in the belief that we get to start 2024 with a clean slate. But if you’re putting your dreams on hold in December, it’s time to consider a new approach.

If you feel like you’re giving up in December, burying your head in the sand until the New Year, this episode is for you. I’m showing you why giving up on the final part of your year is a huge waste, and giving you five thoughts you can use to prepare for an amazing 2024.
