Most people blame the “big” stress…
but it’s the micro stressors that drain your system:

• notifications
• small interruptions
• minor irritations
• constant task-switching

Your nervous system feels every hit.

Micro-stress adds up — unless you manage it intentionally.

The holidays create the perfect storm for burnout:
• disrupted routine
• overstimulation
• pressure to be “on”
• emotional triggers
• travel fatigue

Your nervous system isn’t failing — it’s overwhelmed.
Take breaks. Protect your peace.

Holidays aren’t hard because you’re “bad at celebrating.”
They’re hard because your brain is managing:
• pressure
• social dynamics
• family expectations
• sensory overload

Give yourself permission to breathe, step away, and reset.
