Hello and welcome to this episode of Kennedy saves the world.

Part of saving the world means that we have to maintain the delicate harmony that we work so hard to cultivate throughout the year.

And of course, that harmony wants to crescendo in beautiful, seasonal harmonies and melodies

only way we appreciate going into the next. And the problem is when you mainline a holiday

too soon, you're over it by the time it actually happens. What happened to mindfulness?

We have to be in the moment and celebrate each of these archways into our favorite seasons.
