About this listen

Holidays are supposed to be magical… but sometimes they bring out alllllll the emotions — from pure joy to the “why am I crying in Target again?” moments.

In this episode, we dive into how the holidays can trigger memories and trauma we didn’t even know we were holding onto.

Caley starts by sharing what she once believed was her worst Christmas ever — the year she wasn’t allowed to sneak-peek the presents under the tree. That tiny childhood heartbreak somehow overshadowed the truly hard Christmases that came later: bankruptcy, brain injury, and even the ones during Whitten’s chemo.

Megan opens up about some emotional weight she recently realized she’s been storing in her body for years. We go deeper talking about grief, holidays after loss, and giving ourselves grace through changing seasons. Every Christmas looks a little different — and doing our best is enough.
