Wish you could glide through the holidays without feeling like you’re about to lose all your progress to the seasonal chaos? What if I told you it’s not about rigid meal plans or making every single workout, but about building routines that flex with real life? In episode 2 of our Holiday Eating Series, I’m sharing how to create flexible structures for eating, movement, and rest that actually work when parties pop up, travel throws off your schedule, and exhaustion creeps in. You’ll get my signature strategies for anchor meals—easy, repeatable options that stabilize your energy and cut through decision fatigue. Plus, we’re talking about why movement doesn’t have to mean a perfect 60-minute sweat sesh, how tiny daily habits build real momentum, and the secret power of rest as your ultimate holiday survival strategy.

I’m also sharing access to your totally free Holiday Eating Roadmap—the step-by-step companion that will turn intention into action, so you’re not just hearing advice, you’re living it. You can grab the guide here.

This isn’t the season for “all or nothing,” so I’m showing you how to ditch the perfection mindset, sidestep shame spirals, and finally end the cycle of starting over every January. If you’re ready to learn the art of consistency even when life gets unpredictable, and discover low-barrier habits that actually stick, you’ll walk away feeling lighter, calmer, and way more in control, even amid December’s craziness. Hit play and let’s dive in.

In this episode, I share with you a simple flexible way to avoid holiday weight gain while still enjoying the season:

• Why “perfect” holiday plans backfire and how flexible structures create real momentum
• How to use “anchor meals” to prevent decision fatigue, stabilize hunger, and keep momentum (even when life gets messy)
• Why movement is cumulative (and the small actions that actually build true consistency)
