For me, the HOLIDAY season is a magical time filled with warmth, joy and cherished moments with family and friends. However, the hustle and bustle of the holidays can sometimes lead to stress and overwhelm, especially when you’re an entrepreneur with a business and juggling family responsibilities.
That’s the reason I created my FREE HOLIDAY ORGANIZER to help you balance all the moving parts of the season so you can fully enjoy the festivities without feeling like you’re walking a tightrope.
You begin with
THE MAS
TER CHECKLIST: YOUR HOLIDAY BALANCING ACT BLUEPRINT: Kick off your holiday preparations with this comprehensive master checklist. It’s not just a to-do list, it’s your strategy for the entire holiday period. I find this so worthwhile because when I balance tasks and priorities, I actually stay on top of everything without dropping the ball on those important events or neglecting essential holiday traditions which mean a lot to me.
IMPORTANT DATES: KEEPS YOUR CALENDAR IN BALANCE: In the whirlwind of holiday activities, it’s crucial to maintain balance. There is a dedicated page for important dates that helps you juggle social gatherings, community events and family commitments.
I definitely didn’t want to miss my grandson playing hand bells on the lawn at the homestead of Parker Ranch. It was such a beautiful evening as they lit the big Christmas tree. These important dates also get put into my PLANNER.

THE GIFT PLAN PAGE: BE THOUGHTFUL GIVING AND BUDGETING WITH A GIFT PLAN. Gift-giving is a delicate balancing act between thoughtfulness and budget constraints. The HOLIDAY ORGANIZER’S gift plan section helps you strike the right balance, ensuring you give meaningful presents without breaking the bank. Balancing generosity with practicality has never been easier.
CHRISTMAS CARD HOLIDAY LIST: (My Favorite) Balancing meaningful connections: Amidst the hustle, don’t forget the personal touch of sending Christmas cards. I think this is becoming a lost art with all the ways you can connect send digital messages. The HOLIDAY ORGANIZER Christmas or New Year card section encourages a balanced approach to staying connected. Spending time writing to cherished friends, family and business associates on each card ensures you spread joy without overwhelming yourself, even if they go out a little late into the New Year. I probably sound a little old fashioned but I LOVE getting cards with some warm note written inside rather than a card with just a quick signature attached to it.

THERE’S EVEN A DECORATING LIST: Creating a festive home is a balancing act. My advice is to turn on your creativity, but keep it simple. My decorating list helps me plan the décor for each area of the house I want to look festive without going overboard and achieve that sprinkle of holiday atmosphere without the stress of over-doing the decorations.
KEEPING THE BALANCE WITH MENU-PLANNING: This year, I’m hosting a holiday tea party and our family Christmas dinner. I also love to BAKE goodies for the neighbors. This is what you call a culinary balancing act. The menu planning section in the HOLIDAY ORGANIZER helps you balance flavors, dietary preferences and preparation time. This section is one of the most important for me to plan the menu and the time needed to get things done.
I’m sharing some of my HOLIDAY RECIPES on my you tube channel this month.
KEEPING TRADITIONS ALIVE with the balance of timeless memories: The holidays are a time for cherished traditions and balancing old and new is so important. In the HOLIDAY ORGANIZER you’ll find a place to write
down your VERY OWN TRADITIONS, ensuring you honor the past while creating new memories that will be cherished for years to come. One of my favorite traditions is to decorate my home with my Christmas Tree with ornaments I’ve had for 50 years. Many of them my three daughters made back in kindergarten and elementary school. Another tradition is opening ONE present on Christmas Eve before everyone heads to bed. I could go on and on with more traditions (like my Santa Collection) because I just love this time of year.
NAVIGATE YOUR HOLIDAY TRAVEL WITH BALANCE: If holiday plans involve travel, maintaining balance is crucial. The TRAVEL ORGANIZER section is simple but assist you in balancing packing lists, travel itineraries and downtime, ensuring your journey is in keeping with the holiday spirit. (No leaving anything or ANYONE behind.)
This FREE HOLIDAY ORGANIZER is designed to take the overwhelm out of the holiday seasons for you and help you achieve a balance to enjoy this magical season.
