I created the Holiday Tips series for ambitious high achieving women trying to juggle everything this holiday season -- closing out the fiscal year at work, coordinating holiday events, hosting, cooking, cleaning, communicating, shopping, wrapping. The mental load is extra heavy this time of year, and I'm hopeful these holiday tips will help make things a little lighter for you.

else. So have something on the calendar that is just for you, for you to look forward to get it on the calendar, get the childcare set up, send yourself that signal that you're also looking out for yourself, that you're taking care of you, even though right now you're really focused on a lot of other people around you.
