Summary

This holiday season has been….stressful. And if it feels like you’re feeling more holiday stress this year than your male partner, you probably are. A 2023 poll from Yahoo News and YouGov found that 43% of women said their level of stress and anxiety increases during the holidays (compared to 32% of men). Resiliency and stress expert Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe shares her top tips for entering the New Year with less stress. Because when we’re less stressed we have more space to manage our needs (including our financial needs), and we can start planning for the future. CHAPTERS: 00:00 Why the holidays are so stressful 06:31 Redefining resiliency 9:01 The five pillars of resilience 20:31 A prescription for stress recovery 33:46 Mailbag Question 1: What is a safe harbor account? 36:01 Mailbag Question 2: I’m 60 years old. Should I convert my traditional IRA into a Roth IRA? TAKEAWAYS: Resilience is often misunderstood. It’s not just about being born with it but building it through lived experiences and relationships. Stress itself isn’t the enemy. It’s the overexposure to stress (distress) that harms us. Research suggests that swearing (when not directed at others) can improve pain tolerance.
