Navigating Silly Season

Dec 4, 2025

In this episode of Becoming Reborn, Trav and Pat dive into the chaos and mindset traps that come with the December holiday period — aka the “Silly Season.”

They unpack the societal expectation that it’s normal to overdo it at every Christmas party, how the all-or-nothing mindset takes over, and why people end up spending the rest of the year trying to undo the damage of just a few weeks.

You’ll hear:

• Why people justify December blowouts with “I deserve this”
• Pat’s #1 tip for getting back on track — don’t overdo it
• How to stay consistent with a middle-ground mindset
• Pat’s super simple food rule: eat a big serve of veggies + hit your protein
• Trav’s golden non-negotiable: move every single day
• The power of the rule “Never Miss Twice” — don’t stack bad meals or habits back to back

This episode is all about finding balance, keeping your routine during the madness, and making sure your progress doesn’t fall apart before the new year even begins.
