What a gift to have Ellie Holcomb in the studio to chat all things Christmas! Ellie is such a dear and wise friend and I loved this conversation. We talk about what it looks like to ponder and take in the beauty and the good we see, making space to remember, and how to do the Christmas season well (especially with kids). Ellie’s new children’s book Sounding Joy is ADORABLE and I definitely recommend gifting it to ALL the miniBFFs in your life! Also be sure to check out her album Sing: Christmas Songs as well!

Be sure to hope on over to my Instagram and comment with what JOY sounds like to you!
