What if the holidays don't need you to be more festive- just more present? In this Christmas edition of What About This? Brandy Dawson sits with the reality many of us feel but don't always name, the joy and anxiety of this season. The full rooms and the empty chairs. The laughter and the ache. The pressure to hold it all together while your nervous system is already tired.

This episode weaves together theology, breath prayers, and practical nervous system regulation for women balancing holiday stress and expectation. You'll find grounding practices you can actually use- at the table, in the bathroom, in the car or in the middle of an awkward moment.

If your feeling both festive and fragile, there's a seat for you here. Christmas can feel both joyful and overwhelming this year and if you're nodding yes....you're not alone. This holiday episode is for the woman navigating anxiety, grief, family tension, and the ache in-between.

Complete with breath prayers, nervous system support, grace filled encouragement, and Brandy's Holiday Report/2025 Gift Giving Guide.
