As this episode goes live, I’m literally floating somewhere between New Zealand and Australia, sunbaking on the deck, meditating, dancing, laughing with my friends and soaking up a whole lot of peace.

But I know for many empaths this time of year feels nothing like peace.
Christmas crowds. Family stress. Money pressure. Old wounds resurfacing.
And the noise… the emotional noise is loud.

This week’s episode is for the sensitive souls who feel everything more deeply. The women who dread shopping centres. The ones who carry the expectations of everyone around them. The ones who feel guilty for wanting five minutes alone. The ones who hit December and feel their nervous system go into meltdown.

• How to protect your energy in high-stress environments

• Why empaths struggle at Christmas and how to stabilise fast

• What happens inside your body when the season ramps up

• How to stop people-pleasing when you’re overwhelmed

• How to ground, calm your nerves and stop absorbing everyone’s energy

• How somatic tools release stored emotions before they explode

• How to create intentional holidays instead of obligation-driven chaos

• A simple 5–10 minute grounding ritual (perfect before shopping)

• How to turn off your empath switch when you need a break

• Using gold and white light shielding to stay centred

• The “easy no” rule to stop overwhelm before it starts

• Somatic release through breath, sighing, sound and grounding

• How to clear emotions with the pink bubble technique

• How to slow down, reset and protect your peace

You are not weak.
You are not dramatic.
You are not “too sensitive”.

You’re connected.
And connection requires management, not shame.

This episode teaches you how to hold your energy, keep your nervous system steady and honour your own needs during a time where everyone wants a piece of you.

You don’t have to keep running on empty.
SHINE was created for empathic women who need more boundaries, more peace, more clarity and more power in how they show up.

The next round begins in February.
Reach out if you want support that actually meets you where you’re at.

Until then, take a breath, claim your space and choose the pace you move through this season with. You’re allowed to enjoy this time on your terms.
