Question:
“I am on apprentice wages. How do I enjoy the holidays without going broke?”
Answer:
You’re not the only one feeling that pinch. The trick is to choose, not chase. Pick a few things that matter most, like one outing with mates, one family thing, one ‘treat yourself’ moment—and let the rest go. The best memories usually come from simple stuff anyway: laughs, music, time with good people.
Question:
“I am wiped out. How do I actually reset before work and TAFE start again?”
Answer:
Give yourself at least one proper ‘reset day’. No alarms. No rushing. No chores. Sleep in. Eat something you love. Sit in the sun. Watch something that makes you laugh. One slow day can reset your whole mood for your break and how you view 2026.
