About this listen
This week, we’re talking about the very real ups and downs of managing the holidays and the pressure to create magic for humans who are often cold, tired, or overstimulated. We game plan how to survive the season when school is out, routines are gone, and everyone (even us) is a little dysregulated.
There’s a lot of laughter as we recount the meltdowns, failed attempts at holiday fun, and outcomes of setting boundaries with family. From traditions we love to traditions that broke us, we share what we’re keeping, what we’re letting go of, and how we’re reimagining the holidays in a way that actually makes sense for our family right now. Whether that’s quiet mornings at home, saying no to things that don’t feel right anymore, or fully staying true to your nuclear family's traditions (bar crawl, anyone?), we’re choosing flexibility over nostalgia and letting our holiday traditions evolve with us.
