RESOURCE ROUND-UP: December 2025

Welcome to our Christmas resource round-up for 2025! Here are some recent podcasts, videos and tools we'd like to share. We also love to highlight some older resources that might be useful for you in the current season. I hope you find it helpful!

Our most recent podcast episode features an interview with Rob Bryan. Rob is an amazing guy as well as an expert in HR and Employment Law. He kindly shared some great wisdom and stories for any young person about to head into the world of work or higher education.

You could also check out our Christmas special episode from last year to get you in the festive spirit.

For many of us, there's a tension at Christmas: one one hand there's joy and laughter and on the other pressure and expectation. Worries about living up to the hype or comparing with other people's Christmases can be a driver for anxiety. I wanted to reshare our anxiety star diagram. It's a simple tool to help you see where anxiety might be coming from and set some small goals to manage it.

Molly has recently created a brilliant journaling resource with loads of different prompts and ideas to get you started. Often, our thoughts go round in circles in our head but when we write them out by journaling we take them on a journey and work out what's going on.

On the topic of journaling, check out my recent blog: Lessons From a Year of Gratitude Journaling. It's a habit I'm super passionate about and believe it can have an incredibly powerful impact on our mindset regardless of its simplicity.

Finally, I'd strongly recommend giving Molly's recent blog a read for some top tips on looking after your wellbeing during the cold, dark winter months.

I hope you find these tools useful. Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year from all of us at Phase!
