199 \\ Pick Your Christmas Battles

The holidays can feel like a tug-of-war, especially when family members don’t understand your desire to give less to your children.

Maybe you’ve embraced a more minimal lifestyle, hoping to focus on meaningful experiences over mountains of gifts.

But when relatives insist on buying excessive toys or overloading your kids with stuff you don’t need or want, it can be frustrating.

It’s tempting to argue, defend your choices, or try to convince everyone why less is better.

But sometimes, picking a battle over these things only creates tension and steals your peace.

The truth is, you don’t have to get everyone on board to stick to your values.

This Christmas, let’s choose peace over the need to control how others contribute.

I’ll share tips for gracefully setting boundaries, managing expectations, and finding compromises that keep the season joyful—without sacrificing your desire for simplicity.

The holidays are about connection and love, not proving a point or getting family to see things your way.

Together, let’s navigate these challenges with grace and keep the focus on what truly matters: creating a peaceful, meaningful Christmas for your family.
