About this listen

In this episode, I share the story of one holiday that changed how I showed up for myself: the year I drove away from a family gathering in my white Volkswagen Bug, numb and done pretending everything was fine.

From that moment, we talk about small but brave choices — saying no to draining plans, choosing therapy over gifts, leaving early when your body asks for rest, and learning the language of boundaries. Through a therapist’s lens, I explore how the holidays can reactivate old family roles and nervous-system memory, and why protecting your energy isn’t selfish — it’s necessary.

With honesty, humor (yes, I’m terrible at ice skating), and clinical clarity, we unpack what it really means to romanticize your life — not perfection, but intention, self-respect, and choosing your own pace. This episode is a permission slip: you’re not broken, you’re not behind — you’re becoming. Tune in for a warm, real conversation about investing in yourself during the holidays and beyond.
