Our Favorite Things: Realtor Holiday Favorites

This festive episode of Hustle Humbly is filled with fun, cozy, and heartfelt realtor holiday favorites. From peppermint mochas and crushed ice obsessions to décor tips, family traditions, and thoughtful gift ideas, Katy and Alissa share the simple joys that make the holiday season feel warm and meaningful. Whether you’re looking for client gift inspiration or just want some holiday cheer, this episode has something for everyone.

Cozy Drinks & Festive Mugs

The conversation kicks off with seasonal drinks—peppermint mochas, café au lait mixed with hot chocolate, and hot tea in a pretty mug. The duo agrees that chocolate and peppermint are a perfect pair and that crushed ice (especially “Sonic-style”) is truly one of life’s greatest small pleasures.

Holiday Decorating Styles

Katy loves curated bookshelves and a beautiful tree, while Alissa prefers a minimalist look and hires someone to hang lights each year. The kids always want more lights and inflatables—whether the parents do or not! The episode includes plenty of laughs about décor mishaps, glowing backyard trees, and the joy of simple, warm holiday lighting.

Traditions, Meals & Memory-Making

From holiday baking shows to family movie classics like The Muppet Christmas Carol and The Grinch, traditions run deep. The hosts share stories of turkey trots, Christmas Eve waffles, club sandwich open houses, and coordinating holidays with extended family in ways that reduce stress rather than add to it.

Gifting Ideas That Truly Work

Looking for realtor holiday favorites to gift clients or loved ones? Here are some of the top picks mentioned:

• Local spices, teas, or specialty foods
• Address stamps
• Paintings of family homes
• Costco cookies (a crowd favorite!)
• Lazy Susans for organizing cabinets

Simple, thoughtful, useful—that’s the theme.

Simple Pleasures That Spark Joy

The hosts share the little things that make life better: clean countertops, clean email inboxes, real wood-burning fires, naps, girls’ trips, white walls with colorful décor, and Disney princess moments. These small joys help keep things grounded during the holiday rush.

Giving Back During the Holidays

One of the most meaningful parts of the episode is the reminder to give back. Alissa shares stories about volunteering, delivering meals to local schools, and supporting families in need. Small acts of kindness can make a huge impact.

Final Thoughts

The heart of this episode is simple: enjoy what you love, keep the holidays from becoming overwhelming, and lean into the traditions and rituals that matter to you. The best gift you can give yourself and your clients is presence, not perfection.
