About this listen
Christmas is meant to be magical — but the reality is often far more complicated.
In this honest and unfiltered episode, Caroline Stanbury and Sergio Carrallo sit down together to talk about the side of Christmas that nobody really talks about.
From joy, connection, and beautiful moments, to loneliness, guilt, pressure, and emotional overwhelm — this conversation explores why the holidays can bring out both the best and the hardest parts of relationships.
They dive into the reality of blended families: navigating different traditions, split time with children, extended families, compromises, disagreements, and the unspoken expectations that often surface at Christmas. When everyone wants something different, it’s easy to feel torn between love, obligation, and what feels right.
This episode is for anyone who has ever felt that Christmas didn’t look the way it was “supposed to” — and wondered if they were the only one.
The good.
The bad.
And the ugly — finally said out loud.
Christmas isn’t always merry.
Caroline Stanbury and Sergio Carrallo talk honestly about love, guilt, loneliness, and the reality of blended families during the holidays — no filters, no pretending.
