I've been having some radical and provocative thoughts lately as I prepare my nervous system for the intense socializing and hosting that lies ahead.
What if I...
Decide NOT to cook anything?
Cook while guests are actually here?
Wear pajamas all day?
Let go of my perfectionist hosting anxieties—like obsessing over the house or everyone's needs?
Simply relax and enjoy deep, present conversations?
Hmm... I know. Sounds completely unrealistic. Yet, still I am up for the challenge. This year, I'm daring myself to step out of my comfort zone and do ONE thing that feels completely authentic. One thing that could actually look like radical self-love.
Because isn't that what the holidays should really be about? Not the perfect table setting. Not the Instagram-worthy meal. But genuine connection. Radical acceptance. Letting ourselves just... be.
Hope you can join me in breaking some unconscious cycles this holiday season, embracing a more authentic, relaxed, and meaningful way to connect.
Sincerely,
Amna
