1. Why are the holidays often so disappointing for moms? There are two versions of the holidays—the ones we imagine and the ones we actually get. 
2. Sky-high expectations for holiday perfection almost alway backfire—why it helps to stop being surprised when things go badly. 
3. How to cope with disappointing and stressful holidays: let go of the guilt and control, permission to put yourself first, and simplify. 
4. How to stop trying to make magic and let magic happen. 

Stace and Steph have a candid conversation about why the holidays can be so disappointing for moms (spoiler: expectations exceed reality!). They share their Christmas disasters, Epic Elf fails, and festive “crying in the bathroom” scenes. Find out what happens when magic meets control, and witness the lightbulb breakthrough moment when Steph realized how she can actually have a merrier holiday season this year.
