This Holiday’s Most Meaningful Gift
Each year, we search for the perfect holiday gift — something thoughtful, something meaningful, something that shows how much we care.
But what if the best gift isn’t something you can wrap?
What if the most valuable thing you could give… is time.
The Most Overlooked Gift
Between school events, work deadlines, and holiday prep, most of us are stretched thin long before the season even begins.
We tell ourselves we’ll “slow down” once things settle — but they never really do.
That’s why the real luxury isn’t another item under the tree.
It’s an evening free from errands. A weekend without lists. A morning spent curled up by the fire instead of wrapping at midnight.
Time is the thing we all crave, and it’s the one we rarely give — to ourselves or to others.
How My Home COO Clients Are Gifting Time
This season, several clients are giving My Home COO support as their gift of choice — to spouses, friends, and even coworkers.
Because sometimes the kindest thing you can say is:
“You don’t have to do this alone.”
✨ Popular Gift Options:
Clarity Consults – a thoughtful gift for new parents, busy executives, or anyone craving structure
Delegation Desk Subscriptions – for ongoing weekly support and fewer mental tabs open
Project Power Packs – perfect for a one-time reset (holiday organizing, post-travel reset, new year planning)
One client recently purchased a Power Pack for her sister, a new mom, saying,
“She doesn’t need more baby clothes. She needs time to rest.”
Little Acts That Give Back Hours
Even if you’re not ready to gift a full service, small delegations can still make a big difference:
✔ Scheduling dry cleaning pickup
✔ Ordering teacher or neighbor gifts
✔ Researching family travel options
✔ Creating a meal plan and grocery delivery
Each task you delegate gives you back a few moments — the kind that make the season feel joyful again.
The Best Gift You Can Give Yourself
This year, try giving yourself permission to step back.
To swap stress for stillness.
To trade perfection for presence.
Because the greatest gift your family can receive is a calmer, more connected version of you.
✨ Gift calm this season.
Book support for yourself or someone you love — and give the gift of time.
