This episode of The Satisfied Woman Podcast is your permission slip to stop overgiving during the holidays and reclaim your feminine energy. December pulls women into obligation, burnout, resentment, and emotional overload — but this year, you get to opt out.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

✨ Why holiday burnout is a symptom of masculine over-functioning
✨ How cultural conditioning trains women to overgive
✨ The difference between guilt and intuition
✨ The Sacred No and how to use it to protect your energy
✨ A body-based YES/NO practice to navigate holiday decisions
✨ 3 micro-boundaries that instantly reduce depletion
✨ How to stay rooted in your feminine rhythm during a demanding season

If you feel tired, obligated, or overwhelmed this month, this conversation will bring you back home to yourself.
