Podcast Episode 218: The B Word: Setting Boundaries to Help You Survive December (and the rest of the year too!)
The presents, the holiday concerts, the magical memories… welcome to December! It’s the most wonderful time of year… because of Mom’s hard work. Who’s with us?!
We’ve got guest Bethany Braun-Silva on our podcast today talking all about the B word… BOUNDARIES! As a parenting, lifestyle, and entertainment expert, author, AND podcast host Bethany is an absolute pro at setting boundaries and is here to share her tips and tricks with us.
Setting boundaries is key – during the holiday season and any other time of the year.
Why?
Because it allows you to slow down, show yourself some compassion, and prioritize some self-care. We’re giving tips and tricks to Moms with kids of all ages and stages, so listen up and read on to learn how you can make December truly a wonderful time of year, for everyone in your family!

- The importance of setting boundaries and how it can help you feel better about yourself
- How to practice self-love and compassion by incorporating affirmations into you daily routine
- Ways to give yourself self-care aside from a mani and pedi (those are great too!)
