This episode is sponsored by Better Help. I love this time of year. Our family's Christmas parade tradition

and stretching my creativity and my church's lessons in Carol's music program, they both bring me a deep

thrive. December loves last minute lists

and they never seem to end. I've got some ideas for you to finish your last minute list without

losing your mind. Okay, first let's set the stage. Last minute lists by nature imply a sense of urgency,

right? There's a deadline. There's also a lot at once,

which makes the urgency feel worse. There's more to do in less time, and no time is that
