Finding Festive Joy: Style, Motherhood & Real-Life Traditions with Elizabeth Hambleton, S3 E96

Transforming 45

In this week’s episode of Transforming 45, Lisa and Elizabeth Hambleton, host of the Never Too Festive podcast, get real about motherhood, personal style, and navigating the holiday season without the pressure to be perfect. Together, they unpack the deep identity shifts that come with motherhood, exploring how personal style evolves through life’s transitions and how societal expectations can shape—and sometimes limit—self-expression.

Elizabeth shares insights on rethinking holiday traditions, focusing on joy in the moment rather than succumbing to social media’s idealized holiday aesthetic. They talk about creating space for both joy and sadness in celebrations and how to develop rituals rooted in nature and authenticity.

This episode also highlights the power of rewriting narratives and creating new traditions that hold personal significance. Whether it’s finding your true style, letting go of the pressure to create a perfect holiday, or embracing both the highs and lows of seasonal traditions, Elizabeth and Lisa offer refreshing perspectives on authenticity and self-love.
