0:00.0	Girlfriends, episode number 152. Stay healthy through the holidays.
0:09.1	Hello and welcome to girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom and I'm on a
0:14.9	mission to help you know your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy and family
0:20.6	living. This week, we're talking about
0:22.7	what seems impossible maintaining some of our healthy habits through the holiday season. I can't
0:27.8	wait to take on this important topic. Let's get going. Hey, girlfriends, how are you? Thanks for being here. Thank you always for showing up for another
0:43.4	episode of the Girlfriends podcast. I hope your Advent is going well. I'm pre-recording this,
0:50.0	so it's really just the start of Advent, but you'll be well underway by the time you're listening to this.

1:23.7	I said in the intro, this seems impossible, doesn't it? And I think, first of all, that's the first mindset I want to kind of help you through because I know I've done this where it's like, I can't even think about taking care of myself with exercise or what I eat or, you know, getting proper rest or whatever it is because it's the holiday season, right? We can kind of just
1:44.6	tack on that excuse. And that's the temptation, right, to just completely cross it off the board.
1:50.0	That's something I'm going to deal with when I'm making New Year's resolution. So in the meantime,
1:54.0	anything goes. Well, you know what? That actually adds up to like six to eight weeks of
2:00.6	really unhealthy settling into bad habits.
2:04.5	And it's not necessary. And you kind of feel like garbage. I know I've done this before.
2:10.1	When I feel like I'm too stressed, I'm too busy, there's too much going on. There's too much,
