About this Event
Let go of holiday pressure and leave with a practical survival plan + 5 fully edited professional photos. Ugly sweaters encouraged!
Before the holiday season gets into full swing, give yourself 2.5 hours to loosen your grip, laugh a little, and explore a different way through it.
Join Alika Victor, Board Certified Health Coach, and professional photographer Rick Pascale for a playful, practical experience that brings together games, activities, reflection, and professional photography.
You'll have space to try things, connect with others, and discover ideas you can take back into your everyday life, where budgets get stretched, expectations run high, schedules get crowded, family dynamics get complicated, and things rarely go exactly as planned.
Learn to let go, and have fun doing it.
WHAT YOU’LL EXPERIENCE
- Release the pressure to overspend. Look at where money stress shows up and discover ways to celebrate without stretching your budget.
- Learn 5 ways to calm holiday stress. Practice simple tools through interactive games and activities that make room for laughter and fresh perspectives.
- Set boundaries that protect your peace. Reflect on the obligations and things you're carrying that may need a different approach.
- Create your personal holiday survival plan. Choose practical steps for what to keep, simplify, or let go of during the holidays.
- Free yourself from the perfect holiday trap. Let go of unrealistic expectations and give yourself permission to enjoy holidays that are real, not perfect.
BONUS: Step into a festive photo shoot. Enjoy professional photography with Rick Pascale and receive five fully edited photos of yourself.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Feeling the weight of holiday expectations, money pressure, or packed calendars? Anticipating tense family dynamics? This is for anyone ready to approach the season with more intention, peace, and room to enjoy it.
Come on your own or bring a friend. You don't need to arrive feeling festive or have everything figured out.
WEAR YOUR UGLY SWEATER!
Bring your holiday sweater and your willingness to try something playful. Comfortable clothing you can move around in is a good choice.
