Nicole Brignolle, a beloved friend, mentor mom in the Restoration Home Community, and creator of the Lovely Bits Substack, joins Jennifer to talk about lessons learned from Christmas in Tuscany. The conversation with Nicole strikes right at the heart of so many values we espouse at the Restoration Home: quietness, rest, the gift of quiet, and shifting our values to gratefulness and connection. The lessons are learnt from the simplicity of Christmas with less, the Italian value of connection and family, and leaning into what the changing season means for our bodies, our time, and our priorities.
