Restored: Helping Children of Divorce

#109: 5 Tips to Navigate the Holidays in a Broken Family


Listen Later

If you’re from a broken family, the holidays often bring more stress and challenges than joy. After my parents separated, I faced these challenges:

  • A sad, pit-in-the-stomach reminder of my parents’ split and my family’s brokenness
  • Pressure to choose between parents and balance time amid many events
  • A misled desire to make everyone happy, especially my parents, often at my expense
  • My emotions or other people being in control instead of me
  • Feeling alone and uncertain of how to deal with it all


If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. In it, you’ll get 5 tips to navigate the challenges and hopefully, even begin enjoying the holidays again. Using them won’t make your holidays look like a Hallmark movie, but they will improve the experience by putting you in the driver’s seat.
