Summary
As much as we love the holidays, all the "stuff" that goes along with it (gifts, decor, things piling up on every surface) can get overwhelming. So this week we're sharing how we're approaching things differently in an effort to maintain the joy of the season. And one of the most common questions we get is "who do I figure out my style?" so we're spelling out exactly how we do that when we're feeling torn, which actually happens more than you might think. Plus, Sherry revisits a controversial opinion that she passionately shared last week and John declares war on his screen time.
