Ep. 33 | Staying Grounded During The Holiday Seasons & How To Get Ahead

The Dopamine Pursuit Podcast

In this episode, we explore how to stay intentional, grounded in self, and focused during the holiday season and all the distractions and triggers that may be coming our way.

Kristen shares strategies for staying aligned with your goals amidst disrupted routines, whether you're traveling, managing holiday stress, or facing emotional triggers during family gatherings.

We’ll also dive into empowering concepts like "Separation Season" and "The Cycles of Growth", inspired by Tony Robbins and Ed Mylett, to help you gain momentum and step confidently into 2025. We are diving deep into our awareness of what the seasons of life have to offer us and how we can take full advantage of each season that we are in.

A value-packed discussion on staying grounded, aligned, focused, and prepared for the seasons ahead.
