The most wonderful time of the year is upon us… but for moms… it can be tough. For working moms… even tougher. For me, this season is a time of great joy! A time when the child in each of us can emerge & enjoy so many traditions, festivities, activities, etc. It is also a time when I have been known to pay a visit to the ER to rule out a heart attack due to the high stress that comes with all the joy coordination. Adding spreading holiday cheer to an endless list of year-end business demands put me over the edge. No strategies for success here – except focusing on what matters most to you (and say no anytime it is not a “Heck Ya”.)

For me, this wooden Advent Calendar matters a lot. For 20 years, this has been a source of daily doses of love, joy, kindness & laughter. I mixed it up this year where each gift is tied to words of wisdom (from Buddy the Elf!). I figure if my kids won’t listen to my advice – maybe they will take it from Santa’s Elf!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 7: Family - there is family and then there is THIS FAMILY. We are a lot, but in the best of ways (most of the time). This photo- depicting the generation before & behind inspires me to wake up every day to show them by my actions and words that it is worth it to be kind, be determined, be generous, and be resilient! We are leaving a legacy to the next generation struck with the responsibility to navigate complex and trickier times. My prayer is that being loved - the Fogliani way - will serve them, support them & help them be the light!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 6: Sisters are something else! These two have ridden every wave, endured every season and every hardship, keeping me true to myself and encouraging (sometimes shoving) me towards the light in the darkest time. They are called to call me out, dust me off, and force me to find the joy daily! I love them even (more) when they coordinate outfits without telling me! Thank you Julianne & Jennie for being the most and the best sisters ever!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 5: Gratitude Galore for the incredible women of GCWest! In a conversation about friendship, I was explaining to my daughter that I don't get to have many play dates these days. She interrupted "but you get to work with your friends every day - you love who you work with!" TRUTH! It may not always feel like a play date, but I truly look forward to connecting with these amazing women who are outstanding in every way - as colleagues, moms, friends and much more!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 4: Those who have the blessing of an amazing professional partnership…they know. My gratitude for this incredible individual who saw something in me that I never imagined – a leader, a partner, an entrepreneur – it still overwhelms me and startles me. To work side by side with my “professional brother” Joe who has lifts me up at every turn and encourages my growth every chance he gets – creates a sense of gratitude in me that I can never thank him for enough. To top it off, he has taught me by his words and actions to celebrate and prioritize motherhood. Thank you, Joe!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 3: This party of 5 has been my greatest teachers on every level. The journey of being a wife and a mother I credit with exposing my greatest weaknesses and glorifying my greatest strengths. I am so grateful for each of them – their forgiveness and their compassion, their kindness and care, their laughter and humor…they are the essence of what truly matters most to me and I pray daily that they fully know how grateful I am to belong to them.

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 2: I cannot pinpoint the moment when this incredible man - brother by birth - became one of my closest confidants, best friends and greatest source of authentic encouragement and support! I am grateful for Christian - and humbled (and super blessed) to share our life journey daily as siblings, aunts/uncles, colleagues and friends!

Daily Dose of Gratitude // Day 1: Being flanked by these two is not lost on me. the blessing of parents beside me who truly love, demonstrate relentless perseverance and meaningful presence to me and my family is something I am grateful for daily. They exemplify radical generosity with a spirit of humility and sacrifice that is their greatest legacy! Love you Ted & Tina!

Jumping into the weekend - fully in, fully present.

P.S. If my kids can jump off the Newport pier without hesitation, then so can I!.
