She's had to put her usual holiday traditions on hold during the first Christmas season in her new home because she's adamant about social distancing to stop the spread of COVID-19. “I’m trying to look at it like, if I can sacrifice a little bit now, I won’t lose anybody next year. We’ll have everybody around the table next year,” says Hart, who has partnered with food company Heluva Good!

Even though she won’t be hosting large holiday gatherings in her new house this year, her home has still brought her peace during a tumultuous year. Specifically, her patio has helped her relax. “We just moved here about a month ago, so I’ve just discovered that this is sort of my safe place for me and my family,” Hart says. “We can come out here and watch TV, we have a fireplace, [and] we have the barbecue. We have a pool too, which I’m really excited about. The kids are loving it.”
But her outdoor living space is more than a place to be with her family—it’s also a good spot to be alone. “It just gives me a few minutes to reboot and rethink, so when I get out here, it’s kind of special.”
