Ep. #207 | End The Holiday Shame Game
Listen on Apple Podcasts
Welcome back to The Simplicity Sessions, I’m delighted that you’ve joined us today. My name is Jenn Pike, your host, registered holistic nutritionist, medical exercise specialist, the best-selling author of the Simplicity Project, and the creator of the women’s revolutionary health program, The Hormone Project.
Today, I wanted to spend some time to bring light to the struggle of the holidays. What starts out as one dinner, turns into 7 to 10 days of completely neglecting our bodies through a lack of nourishment, hydration, movement & rest. So we let loose and then beat ourselves up after the fact.
It’s a really stressful place to put ourselves in, it never feels good, so I want to give you some tips and hopefully some inspiration as to how you can step out of this energy… because it is serving no one.
If you have a question for me and my team, send it over to hello@jennpike.com or via Instagram at @jennpike and I’ll do my best to share helpful insights, thoughts and advice.
Here are the main topics of today’s episode:
- Proactive holiday tips
- How to plan ahead

Quotes –
- “Try to rest as much as you can. If you are having later nights, can you sleep in a little bit longer? Or can you support your body better at night with supplements, a sleep mask & no devices?”
- “Just because you are going to a big Christmas dinner doesn’t mean you have to throw away your healthy breakfast and lunch choices. Every meal is a choice.”
- “The more dehydrated that you are, the less energy you will have & the cravings will increase.”
