Step into the Holidays Grounded, Nourished, and Free From Overwhelm.
Hello, sweet friend. It’s Elizabeth.
The magic of the holidays is upon us, and, for me, it isn’t in the grand gestures or long-standing traditions; it’s in the quiet, full moments—the warm cup of tea, a cozy blanket, being completely present in front of the crackling wood fire in our off-grid cabin in the mountains. As a mother, a birth worker, and a coach, I’ve learned that we can’t create the kind of magic we desire for our loved ones until we first hold it within ourselves.
Whether you’ve just come from the Sandpoint Wellness Fest, or a friend shared this link with you, I’m so glad you landed here. I’ve created this space just for you. This workshop is intended to help you claim that inner peace and joy, so your cup can overflow with love and light.
Give yourself the gift of a full cup this holiday season!

This workshop is perfect for you if…
You feel the weight of the upcoming holiday season, from planning and shopping to hosting and family demands.
You crave connection with other women who truly “get it.”
You want to slow down and be present when reconnecting with your family and friends this season instead of checking out with a racing heart and mind while binging on Christmas cookies.
You’re looking for practical, gentle ways to manage anticipatory holiday stress and find more joy.
You desire a sense of belonging and community with other women who understand the beautiful, messy journey of motherhood.
What our day will look like together
A mindful arrival
We’ll begin with a warm welcome and a choice of cozy beverages—local coffee, herbal tea, or hot cocoa—paired with light, seasonal refreshments. As you settle in, come prepared to share a little piece of holiday ‘magic’—your favorite joy-bringing tradition or wisdom about what helps you through this season.
Restorative movement
A slow and gentle, all-levels stretching and movement session to release tension from your body and quiet your mind. No yoga mats or special gear required—just come as you are.
Heart-centered discussion
I’ll lead a heart-to-heart discussion on navigating the holidays with intention. We’ll talk about setting boundaries, honoring your energy, and making space for the things that matter most to you. We’ll also explore how to navigate potentially triggering moments with love, presence, and power.
Craft a Holiday Tea
Create your own nourishing loose-leaf tea blend from a selection of thoughtfully chosen herbs. This hands-on experience invites you to slow down, connect with your senses, and craft something beautiful and useful to take home—or gift to someone you love. The focus is on presence, creativity and joy in the process.
Let’s get practical!
We’ll turn our discussion into an empowering workshop exercise. Using your calendar and last menstrual period (LMP), we’ll strategically map out the weeks of Advent, ensuring you carve out dedicated time for rest, socializing, planning, feasting, and intimacy in sync with your cycle.
A nourishing meal
A delicious, home-style meal you didn’t have to cook. A moment to sit, share, and connect without a single dish to wash. Relax, enjoy, and let the meal nourish both body and soul.
All you’ll need to bring is…
Your beautiful self, in comfortable, casual clothing.
Your piece of holiday magic to share for the arrival.
A notebook or journal and a pen.
Your calendar, however you manage it day-to-day (print, phone, etc.).
Warm layers and shoes for tromping in case the weather invites us outside for some movement.
An open heart and a willingness to share and receive.
As a birth worker, I’ve had the honor of walking with mothers through the most transformative and vulnerable seasons of their lives. I’ve seen first-hand how crucial it is to have a support system, and how the “fourth trimester” is truly just the beginning of a lifelong journey. This holiday workshop is my way of extending that support to women of all seasons, to build a local network that lifts each other up.
