Episode 246 - From Presents to Presence: Making Peace With the Quiet Week After Christmas

On this week’s Tuesday People podcast, Mitch Albom reflects on the quiet, often overlooked stretch of time between Christmas and New Year’s — that in-between week when routines pause and the world seems to exhale. While many of us don’t quite know what to do with the stillness, Mitch shares why this “forced vacation” can be one of the most meaningful moments of the year. It’s a chance to rest, read, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves without the usual distractions. Instead of rushing past it, Mitch encourages us to plan ahead next year and treat this week as a gift — a rare moment to slow down, take stock, and appreciate the space before life speeds up again.
