LIFESTYLE LETTER

It's Just JANUARY

January 2026 PUBLISHER

Bret McKinney | bret.mckinney@citylifestyle.com

The start of a new year is often filled with excitement and a sense of renewal. It’s a time to set new goals, embrace fresh opportunities, and dream about the year ahead. For many, though, January can also bring a sense of pressure—a reminder of resolutions left unfulfilled or the weight of expectations. This issue of City Lifestyle Preston Hollow was crafted with the goal of offering something different: inspiration for long-term, sustainable improvements in physical, emotional, and mental health. Life isn’t about perfection; it’s about consistency. Whether it’s in business, health, or relationships, it’s not what you do occasionally that makes the difference—it’s what you do most of the time. Consider this: you wouldn’t go on vacation every day, but planning a couple of trips each year is a realistic and restorative goal. Similarly, indulging in a rich dessert from Emporium Pies isn’t an everyday event, but it’s a delicious treat now and then. This year, focus on small, consistent actions that lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life. Join a fitness class, carve out moments for rest, and don’t forget to savor life’s pleasures. It’s the “most of the time” choices that shape our lives. Here’s to a healthy, happy new year—we’re rooting for you!

START THE YEAR STRONG: CLARITY FOR EVERY STAGE OF FAMILY LIFE

A new year has a way of putting everything under a softer, more honest light. It’s when people pause long enough to notice what feels good at home…and what doesn’t. Maybe family life feels heavier than you expected. Maybe the pace has been unsustainable. Maybe you’re realizing you need a steadier place to land. This is where Julia Hoffman comes in. She helps adults navigate the messy, beautiful, complicated reality of being in a family— without judgment, without the expectation of one ‘right’ way, and without the pressure to keep it all together on the outside. Her work blends practical guidance with genuine emotional support, giving clients space to breathe, think clearly, and make choices that actually feel right.

M UST SE E | HEALTH + W ELLN E SS

ARTICLE BY ALISON VOLK

HOFFMAN COLLABORATIVE HEALING

WHY IT WORKS

Julia's practice stays small for a reason: you get more than a therapist or coach. You get someone who’s walked this path and will walk it with you — helping you shift out of crisis, stay out of court, and build a plan for what’s next. If you’re looking for quick fixes or occasional check-ins, this may not be the right fit. But if you want high-level, personalized support that changes the trajectory of your family’s future — you’re in the right place. Some specialized offerings from Hoffman collaborative Therapy also include

CONCIERGE COUNSELING

Concierge Counseling is wraparound support tailored to your family’s needs. Julia works closely with both parents during divorce or separation, offering real-time help - not just once a week. That means calls, texts, and coaching when you actually need it. It’s steady support while you figure out how to stay on the same team for your kids - even from two homes.

EASING THE LEGAL PROCESS

Attorneys handle the legal side of divorce, but they’re not trained to help you co-parent. Coaching gives you the tools to communicate, minimize conflict, and create stability for your kids—saving you stress, legal fees, and even future counseling costs. The more you prevent conflict today, the better your co-parenting relationship will be tomorrow. It’s an investment in your family’s future.

CO PARENTING WITH CARE OR AS AN INDIVIDUAL

WHERE JULIA CAN HELP

People often seek Julia’s support when they are: • Feeling tension in their marriage and wanting clarity about what’s happening and what’s possible • Moving through a separation or divorce and hoping to do it without destroying the co-parent relationship • Needing guidance on parenting in a way that keeps the kids steady and supported • Feeling worn down by family expectations, unresolved patterns, or long-standing emotional dynamics

While joint participation is Julia's preferred way to get you what you want, it is definitely not mandatory. Individual coaching can still provide you with effective strategies to manage co-parenting challenges and improve the overall dynamic, even if the other parent chooses not to engage. For more information Phone: (214) 238-5173 | www.hoffmancollaborativetherapy.com

A THOUGHT FOR THE YEAR AHEAD

“It only takes one person getting clarity for an entire family to breathe differently.”— Julia Hoffman If you’re stepping into this year wanting steadier communication, more calm in your home, or a trusted professional to help you sort through what’s happening beneath the surface, Julia offers a grounded, thoughtful place to do that work. Julia also offers a complimentary first call—no pressure, just a chance to see if it feels like the right fit for what you’re navigating.

Love is in the Air at Swoozies

DALLAS’ DESTINATION FOR ENTERTAINING, GIFTING & CELEBRATING ARTICLE BY ALISON VOLK

I NSP IR E D BY | SHO P P I NG

At Swoozie’s, love isn’t reserved just for February — it’s woven into the way the store celebrates every season, every gathering, and every thoughtful moment.

For years, Swoozie’s has been part of the fabric of the Park Cities and Preston Hollow communities — a place people rely on for effortless gifting, beautifully curated entertaining pieces, and inspiration for every holiday and celebration. The team’s personalized service and genuine love of helping customers celebrate well continue to set the store apart. Shop online at swoozies.com 214-272-8737 and follow on IG @swooziesdallas

“Many men make a beeline to Swoozie’s on Valentine’s Day itself — because they know it’s exactly where their wives shop. Easy, trusted, and full of options she’ll love.”

Ritual One opened its doors in November of 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, now this unique fitness destination celebrates 5 years of sweat and soul as the HOTTEST studio in the metroplex. Co- Founders Kalene McGraner and Nicole Preston always knew they wanted an elite and exciting new destination for yoga based fitness in Dallas.

They opened the doors when most of the country was still shut down and NEVER LOOKED BACK. Ritual One hails as the elite destination for not only Yoga but yoga based classes that include Sculpt, Mat Pilates, High Intesity Interval Training, and Strength. What sets them apart from other studios are top notch instructors, infrared heat, dark and moody "club like" lighting and magnificent music. Ritual One offers all class formats each and every day starting as early as 5 am and if you haven't tried it yet, you must, there is an elite athlete inside all of us and Ritual One can awaken it. More than going through the motions, Ritual One challenges you to shift; to sweat with intention and engage the mind, body and soul; to ditch perfect and embrace purpose; and ultimately, to lean into the change and find comfort in the unfamiliar, power in the pause and ultimate transformation.

NEW YEAR NEW YOU OPTIONS FOR EVERY MAN

Hitting the gym, measuring calories, and cutting carbs. The struggle is real. Whether you are striving to fight off the “dad bod” or you have successfully lost significant weight, attaining a slimmer, more sculpted physique is difficult. Enter HIM Plastic Surgery - a plastic surgery practice that focuses on the male aesthetic. Founded by Dr. Vitali Azouz, a board-certified plastic surgeon who focuses on helping men attain their goals. Dr. Azouz specializes in body contouring surgeries that target areas of stubborn fat and permanently removes extra skin that occurs with massive weight loss. One of the most common procedures performed at HIM Plastic Surgery is a “daddy do-over”. This transformative surgery involves removing stubborn fat and gynecomastia, and sculpting the abdominal wall. Oftentimes, patients elect to undergo additional procedures such as neck liposuction or eyelid surgery, also known as a blepharoplasty, if they want to further turn back the hands of time. To reclaim your physique and leave the “dad bod” behind, you should consider a Daddy Do-Over surgery. At HIM Plastic Surgery, plastic surgeons routinely perform Daddy-Do-Overs to help men put the dad bod in the past once and for all. Think of it as the male counterpart to the “mommy makeover,” — but you don’t have to be a parent to take advantage of it. This procedure is designed for any man looking to restore a more youthful and toned body. The Daddy-Do-Over combines procedures that are tailored to your specific goals, ensuring that the results align with your vision. For more information visit www.himplasticsurgery.com
