The holidays can be magical… and messy. In this episode, registered psychologists and co-founders of the Institute of Child Psychology, Tammy Schamuhn and Tania Johnson, sit down to talk honestly about the emotional roller coaster many parents face this time of year.

From financial pressure and overstimulation to family dynamics, grief, and the weight of traditions, Tammy and Tania unpack why this season can feel so overwhelming and what parents can do to stay grounded. You’ll learn practical tools for managing stress, setting realistic expectations, supporting sensitive kids, and creating moments of connection that matter more than the “perfect” holiday.

Whether you love Christmas, dread it, or feel a bit of both, this compassionate conversation will help you breathe a little easier, let go of guilt, and find your calm in the midst of the chaos.
