How's Your Soul Care?


 Hey Gorgeous! 

I am so glad that you're here! Are you feeling over stressed and over run by the holidays already and they haven't even begun? Same girl, same. 

We have a very busy end of November and most of December here in my world, how about you? Through it all your self care and soul care are so important to try and keep at the top of your list for you! 

Sparkle and Soul: How to Slay the Holidays with Soul Care at the Top of Your List

Ah, the holidays—a time for twinkling lights, festive playlists, and way too many cookie trays calling your name. It’s a season of magic and joy, but let’s not sugarcoat it (even though, yes, sugar cookies are life): the holidays can also be a lot.

So, how do you keep your sparkle when the season is throwing glitter-covered chaos your way? Two words: Soul Care.

What Is Soul Care, and Why Is It So Fab?

Soul care is like that secret ingredient in your grandma’s holiday recipe—it makes everything better. But instead of enhancing cookies, it’s all about enhancing you. It’s the deep, meaningful, vibe-raising stuff that keeps you grounded, glowing, and connected to what really matters.

Think of soul care as your holiday glitter: it doesn’t just add sparkle—it sticks (in the best way). It’s your personal blend of peace, joy, and a dash of extra fabulousness that helps you shine from the inside out.

Why Your Soul Needs Some TLC This Season

Let’s be real: the holidays can leave you feeling like a half-decorated tree—pretty on the outside, but barely holding it together inside. Soul care ensures you stay lit, darling, in all the best ways.

Here’s why it’s non-negotiable:

  • Stress Who? When you take care of your soul, that mile-long to-do list suddenly feels less intimidating.
  • Joy Upgrade: When you’re aligned, even wrapping paper scraps look like confetti.
  • Better Vibes, Better Relationships: Your soul’s glow is contagious—your loved ones will thank you.

Sassy Tips to Slay Your Soul Care Game

  1. Channel Your Inner Holiday Diva
    Start your day like the queen you are—with a little ritual that sets the tone. Sip coffee out of your most extra mug, journal like your life’s a bestseller, or blast BeyoncΓ© while you set your intentions.

  2. Drop the People-Pleasing Like It’s Last Season’s Decor
    PSA: You’re not Santa. You don’t need to be everywhere, do everything, or please everyone. Protect your time and say “no” to anything that doesn’t light you up—guilt-free.

  3. Deck Your Own Halls (a.k.a. Create a Sacred Space)
    Find a cozy nook in your home and make it your personal chill zone. Throw in a fluffy blanket, twinkle lights, and maybe even a little holiday glam—because you deserve a space that’s just for you.

  4. Sleep Like It’s a Sport
    Forget pulling all-nighters wrapping gifts. Sleep is your best accessory—get plenty, and you’ll sparkle brighter than the Rockefeller tree.

  5. Gratitude, But Make It Fashion
    Keep a chic little notebook in your bag to jot down moments that make you smile: a sweet compliment, a cozy cup of cocoa, or that glorious moment when someone else volunteered to clean up dinner.

  6. Keep It Holy (or Whatever Feeds Your Soul)
    Whether it’s a festive church service, meditating under the glow of the tree, or just some quiet moments with your favorite holiday playlist, carve out time for spiritual connection.

  7. Perfection Is for Ornaments, Not People
    No one’s going to remember if your cookies look Pinterest-perfect. Focus on fun, not perfection. (Pro tip: when in doubt, sprinkle glitter—on cookies, gifts, or yourself.✨)

A Holiday Soul-Care Glow-Up Ritual

Pour yourself some cocoa (extra marshmallows, obviously), light a candle that smells like Christmas morning, and take 15 minutes to just be. Journal about what you’re loving this season, what’s stressing you out, and what you’re looking forward to. Then, toast to yourself—because you’re slaying it.

Final Thoughts: Stay Sassy, Stay Soulful

The holidays aren’t about checking every box on your to-do list; they’re about feeling connected, joyful, and oh-so-fabulous. So, this season, don’t just survive—thrive. Take care of your soul, sprinkle that glittery energy everywhere you go, and show the world your shine.

In your corner and rooting for you!

The ALMOST end to Summer!

 Hey Bestie, Welcome Back!  Yes, antother hiatus taken. Totally unplanned and I vow to get better at showing up here for you!  So what gives this time? So much.  I typically sit down to write to you on the weekends. Well, there has been a lot happening and the weekends ended up being either a blur or a total veg time with literally scrolling aimlessly on socials or just in front the tv. It started with mom. She had a toenail that seemed to be maybe in grown. She tried to cut it out herself. It then got inflammed and then there was a small section that turned black. SO scary.  Well, she's also kind of stubborn. I tried to first get her to go to a podiatrist. She thought that maybe there was a piece still in there that she didn't quite get out. Well, she also has neuropathy and touching her feet is painful. So it went untreated. I then suggested that maybe we just have the people that do her nails try and pull it out. Finally that suggestion seemed a good one. The...

Birthday month coming to an end

  Hey there beautiful soul, 🌟 So glad you're here for another blog post! Here we go again with a bit of time that has passed that I haven't given a blog.  What a great month it was though! Gosh, my birthday month was truly almost an entire month of celebrations. We started at the end of August having a weekend getaway to St. Louis to see a concert, the rock band, Creed. They are back together after several years and it's like they never took a break! It was phenomenal! It was also pretty great having the kids all under the same roof for the entire weekend!  Then over Labor Day weekend we went to Table Rock Lake which is in Branson, MO. We stayed at a wonderful AirBNB that was on the water! So peaceful! We took in shows and had a wonderful time. And mama got everyone under one roof again!  My mom has had a few more ups and downs with her health, but we are thankful that she is at KU Med working on getting better and all of the kids got to see her and visit, which was...

September got me feelin' all kinds of ways

Hello, September! Welcoming Fall, Fun, and Feelings 🌻🍁 Can you believe it's already September?  We have a wild and crazy September here at the MacLean house!  For me, it’s not just the start of fall but also the month I turn 50! (Cue the confetti! πŸŽ‰) I’m so excited about all the fun things we have planned—pumpkin patches, cozy sweater weather, and warm apple cider. It's that magical time of year when the air gets crisper, and the leaves start to turn those beautiful shades of red and gold. πŸ‚ We took an adventure to Branson last weekend! That was so much fun! With my 50th upon me later this month, my kiddos surprised me by taking us all to one of our favorite locations! We have not been to Branson as a family for way too long!  We had so much fun!  Back home for now and this next week we will head to California. I’d be lying if I didn’t say this September also feels a little bittersweet. We’re still processing the loss of my father-in-law, and it’s a reminder that...
