Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos
A NEW online course by Sabrina Scott
Imagine this scene…
It’s December first, bitches!
You know what that means: Christmas shit is everywhere. Every coffee shop is playing obnoxious Christmas music and serving some wacky seasonal concoctions, ginger bread mixed with chocolate mixed with candy canes. Worse than that, there’s the barrage of obligations and dread that comes flooding in: family, gifts, arguments, drama, drinking; its own mix of tears and trauma. When will it be over? Just pray for January, am I right?
Imagine this:
But instead of being triggered by every ugly sweater, every Christmas tree, every holiday light setup on every second house, and seemingly everyone you know joyfully babbling about how lovely their family is… you actually kinda finally like this whole ‘Christmas’ thing?
How would it feel to not be annoyed by peoples’ cheer, but instead be able to… participate in it, and even feel genuinely cheerful yourself?
Imagine this:
How would it feel to – instead of spending all of December in a pit of misery, depression, trauma, fear, and avoidance – have your own Christmas tree, enjoy decorating it, and creating your own fun Christmas traditions, on your own terms?
How would it feel to say NO to traumatic obligations with family that just leave you feeling more wounded, with even more tough feelings to work through and heal?
How would it feel to have nothing to report to your therapist around Christmas time, other than… you feel happy, chilled out, and ready for the new year?
How would it feel to leave your Christmas crying in the past?
Well, let me tell you… it feels pretty fucking GREAT.
For YEARS I dreaded December.
It was my birthday.
It was Christmas.
Ultimately, it was just misery, and trauma heaped on top of trauma, even after I moved out at seventeen. I still saw my family, and year after year, everything was… well, terrible.
Until, crying on my way home from a family Christmas after my 25th birthday, I decided that was the last Christmas I’d ever spend stuck in the muck of family drama and being treated worse than I knew I deserved.
At 25, I decided that would be my last Christmas crying because of family.
And, you know what – it pretty much was.
Trauma isn’t healed in a day, and it sure as hell isn’t healed in a year. I’ve been in therapy for what feels like forever, and throughout all that I’ve spent so much time working on myself, my brain, and my childhood programming. I’ve committed and recommitted and recommitted to my spiritual practice. I’ve lit candles, prayed, and done rituals. It’s taken me some time, but I’ve learned a lot of lessons along the way.
This is my third year of absolutely LOVING Christmas.
This is my third year of LOVING December, instead of being traumatized by it.
I never thought it was possible, but… it is.
This year, I put up my own second, real live Christmas tree – and, yes, I decorated it with lights and ornaments. I sent a few Christmas cards, and was happy (rather than triggered) to receive some from friends!
As a lifelong witch, I used Winter Solstice – Yuletide – as permission to avoid my trauma around Christmas. I absolutely LOVE solstice and always will – banishing the darkness and welcoming the light, what’s not to love – but, I know now that I can have both Solstice AND Christmas.
I can have all of December, actually, to enjoy, to revel in, to reclaim.
And, more importantly, so can you.
I know December just passed, Christmas is over – so, you might be thinking that you can absolutely avoid all of this for another year. And, I guess you can – but if you start processing what happened this past year (and/or what usually happens) and why, you’ll be able to begin setting yourself up for a new and different experience next year.
The thing is… it’s easy to push this shit under the rug.
It’s easy to avoid the painful reality of your life, numb it out, dissociate, and tell yourself that next year will be different, even though you aren’t actually doing anything that would make next year different.
Nothing changes if you don’t make any changes.
Nothing changes if you don’t commit to facing reality.
Nothing changes if you push things under the rug, and avoid avoid avoid… for yet another year.
It might feel like you’re spinning on a hamster wheel, and trust me – it doesn’t have to be like that.
Another life is possible.
But for you to experience what that feels like… you’ll have to make a leap.
Even if it’s uncomfortable.
Even if it’s uncharted territory.
Even if you’re a little afraid.
Imagine what’s on the other side of this roadblock, this mountain of drama, trauma, fear, and tears. No, seriously. Because tears, drama, all that – that’s optional. We can choose something different for ourselves, for our lives. YOU can choose something different for yourself.
Imagine it:
You go into the woods with people you love.
You chop down your own tree, carry it home – figure out how the hell to put that thing up.
Decorate it exactly how you want, with ornaments gifted by chosen family, friends, and lovers – and even some you got yourself, as momentos and symbols of obstacles you’ve overcome, things you’ve achieved, tokens of self-love.
You drink some wine by the tree, have snacks, laugh until you cry with people you care about – even if those people are cats. (No shame, I have three cats, and they are my favs.)
But more importantly – you see all this Christmas shit everywhere, and it actually doesn’t feel like shit – that word doesn’t feel right anymore.
It feels light.
It feels fun, joyful.
It feels easy to smile, to laugh.
You appreciate the lights around your neighbourhood, in the local coffee shop.
Everything just feels refreshing, like a breath of fresh air.
And for the first time in forever, you don’t feel like your trauma is following you around like a nasty monster, or balancing on your shoulders, weighing you down so much that just existing feels somehow exhausting and impossible.
I know how you probably feel right now:
Like what I’ve just outlined isn’t in the cards for you. There’s a hand you’ve been dealt, and that’s that, you just have to accept a life full of misery, sadness, and retraumatization. I know what that feels like: that desolate, despondent, lonely feeling, where it does feel easy to give up and just accept the status quo as immovable. I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t have any other choice but to accept how things are.
Trauma does often combine things into a blob: our memories, emotions, all of that can feel difficult to parse apart, to differentiate and separate from each other.
It’s easy to dissociate and avoid avoid avoid as a response to overwhelm.
Paralysis can feel like all we can do to survive the big feelings… until next year hits.
I know it can feel hard to know what to do.
What to change.
How to proceed.
What to say no to.
What to say yes to.
You’re ready to change your life – but how?
I know this shit can be confusing.
It can feel insurmountable.
Too big.
If you don’t have a plan to follow, if you don’t have any examples for what to do first (and then what to do next), what questions to ask yourself, an awareness of boundaries (and when to use ‘em), all of that – it can be easy to talk yourself out of facing any of this.
It can be easy to put have an awesome Xmas with no traumatic stuff going on whatsoever on your New Year’s resolution list, totally forget you said that, and then… put it on your to-figure-out list the following year.
And then the year after that.
And after that.
And then it’s ten, twenty years later, and…
And… you get the picture.
It’s easy to stay stuck in the trauma hamster wheel.
I’ve been there.
Done that.
Got the t-shirt.
Felt like it would never, ever fucking end.
But, it did end.
I pulled myself out of it. And I can show you how to do that, too.
Without guidance, thoughtful examples, and a framework for thinking through and sorting through how multifaceted Christmas season and family trauma can be, it can be easy to just shove it all under the rug… as always.
And then all of a sudden you’re fifty, sixty, seventy, and still fucking miserable.
I say hell to the no about that.
I believe you can have a different life – a more genuinely joyful life – sooner than you think.
That’s why I’ve created my new course, Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos.
Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos is a video based online course that will help you face and reflect on the reality of your past and present trauma around family and the Christmas season, and transform your current pain into a joyful future full of peace, happiness, and personal power.
Healing Christmas is designed with you in mind. Because, if you’re here, I think you’re a little bit like me: maybe a little witchy, maybe a little queer, maybe a little neurodivergent, maybe a little introverted. Maybe you’ve been through some shit. Maybe you don’t wanna let whatever you’ve survived – whatever hardships you’ve experienced – define you and your life anymore. Maybe, finally, you wanna move the fuck on, and reconnect to your own magic, and the magic of the holiday season.
Or any season.
And bring that renewed confidence, power, and magical spark into the rest of your fucking life.
Forever.
My life before mastering and healing my relationship to the Christmas season, and all the accompanying familial trauma… honestly, was very hard.
I lived in a world where I was triggered all the time.
Even worse, I was triggered by peoples’ joy.
I was triggered by happy families.
I was triggered by seeing healthy love around the holidays.
I was triggered by Christmas music, holiday lights, Christmas colours and imagery. I hated all of it, because it reminded me of what I didn’t have, and what I thought I’d never be able to have, ever. I was depressed for the entire month of December, and even some time leading up to it – and then the comedown from the barrage of trauma and depression. I spent way too much of my year feeling sad and triggered, and in a state of dread. I felt sad, miserable, and stuck, completely overwhelmed by my bad feelings. I tried to celebrate Winter Solstice on my own terms, to kinda reclaim the season, but it didn’t really work – it was like covering a gunshot wound with a band-aid, and pretending that’d do the trick.
But guess what? I don’t feel like that anymore.
The word ‘miserable’ isn’t really in my vocabulary.
I love seeing other people happy. When I meet someone who has a close-knit, loving family, I’m genuinely so excited for them. I don’t feel jealous or sad, or reminded of any sense of lack from my past.
I feel connected to the present moment, to my own inner peace and sense of personal vitality.
I feel proud of how far I’ve come, and any trauma around Christmas and family no longer really ever enters my mind.
I love Christmas light installations, I love all the piles of gifts and toys and endless Christmas trees and people posting photos with Santa.
I’ve even started to hum along to the classic Christmas songs, rather than be annoyed by them.
I love love, I love seeing other people happy, and, finally, I myself feel happy – even though I’m single, even though a lot of my chosen family moved away over the pandemic. I just feel happy, content, joyous, renewed. I spend the Christmas season fitting in as many light shows as I can, rather than hiding and avoiding.
I feel refreshed.
I no longer spend any time rehashing Christmas trauma or being retraumatized by putting myself in unpleasant and unhealthy situations.
I celebrate Christmas, and Winter Solstice, and my birthday, and New Year’s. And I love it. It’s non-dramatic.
I just feel… good.
I feel at peace.
I feel happy.
And I want to show you how I got here… and how you can get here too.
How can my story, my trajectory, my ‘before and after’ apply to you?
Well, let me put it in list form:
Before taking my course, Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos, you might feel:
A sense of dread and doom about the Christmas season
Fear of what crappy thing will happen this year
Obligation to make people happy who stress you out or treat you like crap
A desire to avoid everything to do with the holidays – can’t you just go alone in a shack in the woods, turn off your phone, and talk to no one?
Overwhelmed as hell
Not quite sure how you’re feeling
Endlessly triggered
Like celebrating Winter Solstice is great but still doesn’t address underlying trauma associated with Christmas, family, and the winter season
Perpetually stressed and sad
After taking my course, Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos, you’ll have the tools to:
Feel more connected to your ability to make positive change in your life
Feel more confident about your ability to have an amazing, happy experience around the Christmas holiday season
Access inner peace and your own personal power and sense of self-worthiness: you’ll know you deserve to have a good, happy, kind life, and yes that does include the Christmas season too
Challenge and face the triggers that come up for you around this time
Create and communicate boundaries that protect your wellness, your peace, and your heart and soul
Tease apart and reflect on your own personal trauma, and family trauma
Enjoy the entire winter season, whether it’s Christmas or Solstice
Know in your heart that above all, you are worthy of respect and love
What’s this program exactly?
This view on-demand online course is designed to help you face and overcome trauma that bubbles up around the holiday season. It’s designed to help you face trauma around Christmas time, since that’s when most of us are face-to-face with the realities of our trauma and our life - with the choices we’ve avoided making, with the boundaries we’ve avoided setting.
Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos is designed to help you heal your relationship to the holiday season. It’s an invitation infused with magic, with positive intention, healthy boundaries, and personal transformation.

INSTANT ACCESS to Videos 1-7; Worksheets RELEASED JANUARY 20.
Videos 8-12 and Worksheets RELEASED FEBRUARY 1.
Videos 13-16 and Worksheets RELEASED FEBRUARY 14.
The course also includes 3 LIVE GROUP CALLS, once per month, in January, February, and March.
Is there live support?
This first launch of Healing Christmas includes three live group calls – one in January, one in February, and one in March. The reason for these calls’ being spread out is… this material can take some time to work through and actually process and digest properly.
Depending on how all that goes, I may offer larger, longer group containers in the future. This is the course’s first launch.
The course does not include one-on-one support.
What this program is not:
This program is absolutely NOT IN ANY WAY a substitute for one-on-one work with a therapist, counsellor, psychiatrist, psychologist, or any other supportive mental health professional.
You’ll get the best results from this program when you have a multifaceted wellness team, which can often include accredited professionals: therapists, psychologists, counsellors, etc, are crucial supports for anyone struggling with trauma.
I am not a doctor, physician, psychologist, therapist, counsellor, psychiatrist, or anything like that.
I am one person who has been through a lot, sharing my experience and process/methods for how I overcame some hard stuff and transformed my life. I share because I want to help you transform your life, too – and show you how I did it. If you’re triggered easily or in crisis, please make sure you reach out to your mental health team members, because this program does not include that kind of one-on-one support.
Go at your own pace, and if that pace is slow as a snail – halleluiah! Embrace it.
Where is the program?
This program includes pre-recorded videos which are hosted on the Teachable platform, like all of my other courses! When you enroll, you’ll receive log-in information and access to the materials. You can access Teachable on desktop via your internet browser of choice, but Teachable also has an app for easy mobile viewing and listening.
This is a digital program.
Yep, that’s right – an online course!
That means you can do Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos from home, at a café on vacation, anywhere in the world, on your own schedule. As long as you have an internet connection, you can complete course lessons from the comfort of your bed, your couch, your kitchen, or – if you’re like me – even the bath. Course content is available on demand, on my private online course portal, available only to enrolled students. And you’ll get lifetime access to all course content – so if you’re not ready to dive in immediately, or you get busy, the course will be waiting for you as soon as you’re ready to continue, rewatch, binge, whatever.
How long does it take to go through the course? What’s the time commitment?
Honestly – with the video and worksheet release schedule in mind – it does very much depend on you, your current situation, and how motivated/committed you are to making time for the course and prioritizing course content.
If you only watch one video every three months, obviously it’ll take you way longer to get through the course content and lessons than someone who dedicates two hours every week to watching course videos and filling out the reflection worksheets.
There’s no better or worse way to complete course content: it’s designed to meet you where you are. This isn’t a ‘quick fix,’ so don’t judge yourself if you take longer to get through course material than you at first anticipated.
NOW is the best time to start.
In a few months’ time, you’ll forget, the holidays will be a slightly ominous memory successfully pushed under the rug, down there with all the other traumatic crap you’re avoiding.
NOW is the best time to begin addressing this, because Christmas was only a few weeks ago – December was only days ago!
So, what all went on and how all that went for you will still be fresh in your mind. It’ll feel fresh, relevant; maybe you’re still working through it and breathing through some of what you went through – you likely haven’t shoved it under the rug just yet.
Wouldn’t you rather start working on this NOW… than scrambling to come up with a battle plan in November and December itself, when Christmas is wham-pow in your face, and stressful relatives are banging down your door telling you this or that?
Are you going to deal with this NOW, or are you going to avoid it, like you usually do?
Not taking action is costing you something.
When we heal our relationship to the Christmas season, when we learn to soothe our triggers and express our boundaries… we create ripples into other areas of our life.
How much longer do you want to feel this way?
I mean, really – ask yourself that.
I’ve met absolutely lovely people, who – even into their fifties – were still completely swept up in their dysfunctional family dynamics and allowed their Christmas (and life) to be at the beck and call of people who showed them nothing but cruelty.
They felt stuck, and remained there for as long as I knew them.
In their fifties!
Do you want that to be you?
Still miserable, still upset about how your parents treat you, at fifty?
At sixty?
I’ve seen it happen.
That could be you, if you don’t make a change.
And, hey, it could have been me, too - if I didn’t do what I’m teaching you in Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos.
Life is short.
It is short, it’s beautiful, it’s a gift.
This past few years of the pandemic has taught us that time is of the essence, life is unpredictable, and we should use as much of the precious time we have on this wondrous planet in the best way we can. In my world, that includes learning to treat ourselves with kindness and love, even when no one else will… and it includes healing Christmas, so you get to participate in feeling happiness in that one month of the year that seems worse than all the others.
Do you really want to feel how you do now, one year from now?
Five years, ten years?
When will it stop?
When will you say no?
When will you step up, and choose yourself?
When will you step up and choose to seize the possibility for joy, for happiness?
Starting now will allow you to take those first few very hard but very important steps out of your current situation, and into a new life.
Starting now is a gift not only to yourself today, but to your future self.

You’re looking for a quick fix, and you’re not planning to actually do the work it takes to create change (and then blame me for your lack of effort and results).
My unique promise and the big ‘why’ of Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos
Somehow, I haven’t really seen any course address how interwoven the Christmas season is with trauma, specifically family trauma.
Christmas isn’t the cause of trauma: it’s like the canary in the coal mine of our lives.
If we dread this time of year, if we dread a season that’s supposed to be all about peace, happiness, joy, love, kindness, and togetherness, it’s a little flashing light that there’s something wrong, and we’d do well to turn a magnifying glass onto our lives and our choices.
If you hate the holidays, you don’t have to.
If you’re depressed, miserable, traumatized, in repetitive cycles of obligation and saying ‘yes’ when what you really mean is ‘no, I don’t want to,’ you probably already know something is wrong with that picture.
But what you might not know is… it doesn’t have to be that way.
Your life can change.
And while it won’t happen overnight – it does take time – it’ll probably happen faster than you think.
And the first step is starting today: saying yes to a new life, saying yes to change.
Say YES to the rest of your life.
How you feel today doesn’t have to be how you feel next year.
You have a choice to make.
You can stay where you are – stuck, frustrated, frozen – or you can connect with your potential, with your power, and get the guidance and support you need to make the big change in your life that my course, Healing Christmas: A Guide for Witches and Weirdos will help you achieve.
You can either keep avoiding reality, pretending and hoping it’ll change miraculously on its own, or you can take control of your life, and grab the reins of your chariot.
Think of how you want your life to be next December.
Do you have a plan to get there?
The rest of your life starts now.
You can do this even if you’re broke, busy, and tired.
Ok, let’s look at what’s going on in the back of your head –
I don’t have time.
When people say they don’t have time for something, what that tends to mean is it’s not a priority for them.
SO, do you really “not have time” or are you choosing to push this important issue under the rug, again?
I’m not ready.
If you really are too triggered to dig into this, I respect that, but I’d like to offer another perspective.
If we all waited until we felt 500% ‘ready’ to do something, most of us would never end up doing anything.
I include myself in that, too – in order to make any forward movement in my life, I’ve learned I’ve gotta do stuff scared, before I’m ready.
And each and every time, I’ve been so glad I did. If I didn’t, I would still be wondering ‘what if,’ years later.
You’re more ready than you think, and you can absolutely do this even if you’re scared.
You’re capable of more than you know. And you can do it sooner than you know.
I’m broke.
Email me about a payment plan. I’m happy to customize something that will suit your needs and your situation. sabrinadraws@gmail.com
Who the fuck are you again? You’re not qualified to say the word ‘trauma’ out loud.
What a sad perspective, LOL.
Yes, I’m not accredited as a doctor, physician, therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, counsellor, or any of that stuff.
What I offer is a different kind of support and provocation than you’ll get from those folks:
I speak from the power of my own experience, and my own transformation.
Listening to and being inspired by the stories and reframings of others who have also walked similar paths and lived to tell the tale was a crucial aspect of my healing.
Others speaking out and sharing their healing stories and what they’ve learned along the way has always inspired me to do the same, to speak truth to power (and to myself); their sharings paved a path forward for me, and showed me another life is possible.
I do the same for you in this course.
I can say stuff – often bluntly – that therapists can’t tell you, because the whole point and process of therapy is very different than what I’m doing.
It’s a different thing, with a different outcome. Both are valid, valuable, important, and transformative.
I’ve transformed my life radically over the years; statistically, due to what I’ve been through, I should be dead in a ditch by now, in a mental institution, or crying in the corner.
I’m not.
I’m thriving.
And I want to teach you what I’ve learned so you can thrive too.
Christmas is far away. I don’t care about this right now.
Yeah, it just happened, and so in theory it’s as far away as it will ever be – but that’s even more reason to start NOW, and face this shit so you’re not scrambling in December.
Don’t you want a plan in place by then, so you can actually enjoy the holiday season, maybe for the first time ever?
Healthy boundaries aren’t built overnight, and if you want to feel confident enough to say certain ‘no’s and start setting living a different life, it’s important to start stacking those building blocks now.
Start today.
Your future self will be happy you did.

FAQ:
When does the course begin and end?
The course doesn’t really have a set beginning and ending date, since the format of it is video-based, view-on-demand style.
The first bunch of videos are available for you to watch instantly!
Worksheets for these videos will be available January 20.
After that, the next bunch of videos and worksheets will be live February 1, with the final bunch of videos and worksheets available on February 14.
So, you’ll have alllll course content by mid February, 2023, and you’ll be able to watch all content at your own pace.
Do I get lifetime access to course material?
You absolutely do.
What’s the time commitment per week?
Whatever you want, baby!
Personally, I’d recommend between 1-2 hours per week, but you could absolutely do less.
Are there prerequisites?
Nope.
Are there other material or equipment costs besides the enrollment cost of the course?
Nope.
Do I get support, community or 1:1 access to you?
At this price point, no – there is no larger extended community support, as this is meant to be a self-study course with three group coaching calls (one per month in January, February, and March).
If you’re interested in 1:1 coaching to support your journey with this content, please send me an email and I’d be happy to create a customized coaching package for you! sabrinadraws@gmail.com
What is the refund policy?
I am not a refunds person.
I believe in doing what we say, and saying what we do. I believe in keeping our word to one another and honouring our commitments and intentions.
Since this is a digital product, and you get instant access to videos when you sign up – and you can’t really ‘un-watch’ a video, I’m not offering refunds at this time.
Please enroll with intention, from your heart, and with clarity that this is the right offering for you. I believe that we put our money where our mouth is, and when we invest in our wellness, it benefits us to follow through with that commitment.
What is the investment?
The pay-in-full price is $777, or 4 monthly payments of $222.
What are the payment options?
You can pay with PayPal or credit card!
What’s the difference between this course and other programs or offerings you have?
This course isn’t taught live, so in terms of style it’s the same teaching and video style as my Magic Without Bullshit (MWOBS) and Tarot Without Bullshit (TWOBS) courses. There are videos which introduce different themes and concepts, and accompanying worksheets.
What’s different about this course is that it’s much shorter than MWOBS and TWOBS, which each have 10 modules. As you can see, everything is in one giant module; and, the video length is longer than the average MWOBS/TWOBS video. This course will not teach you how to do magic or read tarot, but I do use concepts in tarot and magic to explain some of the course content.
So, this course is completely unique in its content – it’s my first course that specifically addresses trauma and healing.
Is it close captioned?
At the moment, no!
But will happily close caption the entire course as soon as you sign up, if this is something you request. Please allow a few business days for your close caption request to be processed!
Who the hell are you again?
Hi!
I’m Sabrina.
I’m a professional witchy person, tarot reader, and spiritual teacher. I have two books out (Witchbody and Curse and Cure), and have taught hundreds of students in my courses, including my intensives, Tarot Without Bullshit and Magic Without Bullshit.
I didn’t really set out to be a professional spiritual teacher, it just happened naturally over time as I told my story online over the years. My story included magic, tarot, mediumship, saint work, visiting shrines, praying at altars, and all that fun stuff, yes – but it’s also included my own personal history, and my journey of overcoming childhood trauma, and rape as an adult. The stuff I’ve been through is pretty terrible, and yet I’ve been able to overcome it, and thrive.
I’ve always shared openly about what I’ve experienced, because I don’t believe victims and trauma survivors have anything to be ashamed about. What I share is a testimony; it’s me witnessing and honouring myself, and honouring you to step into your own power and do the same.
Over the years, I’ve healed a ton of my own trauma – yes, with the help of therapists and various health professionals – but also through art, writing, magic, tarot, prayer, positive thinking, affirmations, and spiritual work.
My main driving force is to help others.
More specifically, to teach YOU how to transform your life.
What good is what I’ve learned if I can’t share it with others, and show other people who have been through hell that they don’t have to stay in hell forever?
I’ve spent a lot of time learning, alchemizing, transforming, healing.
It’s my life’s purpose to share that process with you, so that you, too, can lead a joyful, happy life.
I created this course because our relationship to the Christmas holiday season is such an easy way to see where we’re at with our trauma healing process. It’s a great measure of our progress, our peace.
I remember, year after year, crying on my birthday in December, crying on Christmas, dreading every second of December, putting my head in the sand and trying not to be depressed about how everyone else seemed to have a happy, easy family that cared for them, that they looked forward to seeing. I thought that I’d be miserable for 10% of every year, until the end of time.
As I’ve said elsewhere on this page… that’s not my life anymore.
I’m happy as fuck.
I actually put up a Christmas tree, hum to holiday music, and am genuinely stoked as hell when I see other people smiling.
I’m not offended by happy healthy families.
I love my life.
And I don’t dread any time of the year. I’m fully present in all of it.
Yes, life happens – sometimes there’s road bumps. But I’m able to move with the punches, and embrace life’s challenges and joys without being ruled by trauma or feeling controlled by my reactions to a traumatic time of year.
I want the same for you.
And I know I can help you get there.
Hope to see you inside!
