You can’t pour from an empty advent calendar
For the mum who does it all
Starts 1 December – 24 days of small moments to refill your cup.
Daily emails to help you slow the festive spin – no guilt required, glitter optional.
Because not every moment has to be wrapped in a bow, and you don’t need to create a picture-perfect Christmas to make it meaningful.
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about taking just a few minutes each day to pause, reset, and remember that you matter too.
What It Is
A daily email series running from 1–24 December.
Each morning brings a small-but-mighty message designed to help you step out of the noise and back into your body - calm, grounded, and a little more you.
To give you a feel for it:
“The One-Thing Reset”
When everything feels like too much, look around and pick one thing you can bring back to order.
Fold a blanket. Clear one surface. Scoop up the Duplo pieces that have been lying on the floor all weekend (your feet will thank you!)
As you do it, breathe. Tell yourself, “This is me creating calm.”
It’s not about tidying the house – it’s about giving your nervous system one small, solid win.
ChatGPT Prompt (optional):
As a mum with a little one, help me find three tiny wins I can create today that would make my space — and my head — feel a bit lighter, even if I only have five minutes.
Each day gives you something just like this – small, doable, and rooted in the reality of mum life.
It’s for the days that start too early, the lists that won’t quit, and the evenings where you forget your own needs (again).
The Difference You’ll Feel
Over 24 days, you’ll start to notice:
✔️ A touch more calm where it matters most
✔️ Fewer snapping or shouty mum moments when things get messy
✔️ A more settled nervous system (yours and your family’s)
✔️ Better focus and energy from small sensory resets
✔️ Deeper connection in the little moments, less guilt in the big ones
✔️ A December that feels grounded, not guilt-ridden
Small steps, real shifts.
One five-minute moment at a time.
Who It’s For
This is for you if:
– You’re a mum who wants to make this season feel calmer, not fuller
– You’re tired of being told to “soak it all in” when you’re just trying to keep it together
– You crave genuine peace, not performative perfection
If you’re done with the pressure to make magic, and just want to feel a bit more human – this is your invitation.
Why I Created This
I’m a mum of four - my eldest is 25 - so I’ve had more than my fair share of Decembers filled with prep, glitter, last-minute costume hunts, nativity tears (mine), and that gnawing pressure to make it all perfect.
Most years, I tried to do it all – the crafts, the baking, the matching pyjamas. And yet, I’d often end up feeling frazzled, disappointed, and quietly wondering why I felt so flat when it was all over.
This offer is my gentle rebellion against that.
It’s for the version of me who just needed five quiet minutes to herself and someone to say:
“You don’t have to do it all. You don’t have to earn rest.”
That’s what these emails are.
A pause. A breath.
A daily reminder that you matter too.
