About this listen
If your Christmas looks more beige safe foods than glossy adverts… if your tree is covered in cheap unbreakable baubles instead of heirloom ornaments… if your child hates the school concert and the holidays feel more exhausting than “magical” — this episode is for you.
In this gentle, honest conversation, Kirsten explores the grief and guilt that can surface when Christmas doesn’t look how we imagined, especially for mums of neurodivergent or disabled children. Together, we’ll name the pressure of the “perfect Christmas,” soften it into our kind of Christmas, and imagine a season that is small, soft, and still deeply meaningful.
Expect real-life stories, nervous-system-aware reflection, and practical ideas for:
• Designing a Christmas that fits your child’s needs
• Letting go of traditions that no longer work
• Navigating family expectations and comparison
• Finding quiet moments of magic in the mess
You don’t have to save Christmas. You’re allowed to survive it — and let that be enough.
