Your Holiday Survival Guide: Family Dynamics Edition

View descriptionShare

The holiday season is sometimes joyful, sometimes stressful - and to be honest, it’s usually a mix of both. Between external pressures and family dynamics, we figure everyone can use some tips on making it through the season. 

 

In this episode we cover:

 

  • How to bring up your loved one’s absence when no one else will
  • Making a good enough holiday for your family when you’re not in the holiday spirit
  • Tips for navigating intrusive personal questions (like “when will you have kids?” or “don’t you think it’s time you moved on?”) 
  • Why consensus is a terrible holiday goal, but collaboration might just be the best thing possible

 

We're re-releasing some of our favorite episodes from the first 3 seasons.
