Tangents & Sidebars December Edition | Nostalgia, Mindfulness, and the Art of a Festive Balance

Send us a text Ever wondered why green jello makes an appearance at traditional fish dinners, or why the Brussels sprouts of yore still haunt some of us today? Join Debbie Harrell of New World Normal and I as we foray into our quirky little episode of Tangents & Sidebars. In this episode,  we embrace the chaos and charm of holiday traditions with a nostalgic nod to quirky family customs, workplace cookie contests, and the hilarity of live podcasting misadventures. With stories that warm the heart and tickle the funny bone, we, your neuro-spicy hosts, explore the peculiar yet endearing rituals that make the festive season unforgettable. As the holidays approach, the pressure to stay present and mindful can feel overwhelming. We tackle these challenges head-on, with conversations about the delicate balance between helping others and nurturing personal wellness, even amidst cellphone bans in schools and their implications. From creative classroom solutions to parental activism, and the art of slowing down with a personal vision statement for 2025, we offer insights and support. And don"t miss the chance to connect through Debbie"s Mindful Media Friday newsletter, where Debbie celebrates the season with holiday movie recommendations and more.
