Loneliness, grief, changing traditions — none of these mean God has abandoned you.

In Part 2 of our conversation, Victoria D. Lydon and I go deep into the real emotions of the holiday season: feeling empty, tired, lonely, disappointed, or stuck in grief. We talk about how to schedule grief with God, how to stop letting old expectations crush you, and how to build brand-new traditions that carry hope instead of pressure.

This episode is for the Christian woman navigating loss, transition, shifting family dynamics, or simply that quiet "I just don't feel okay this year."

You'll gain:

• What to do when you wake up already tired or dreading the day • How to grieve on purpose — without letting it take over • A biblical way to confront loneliness before it grows • How to rebuild expectations when traditions no longer fit • Practical tools for creating new rhythms, new joy, and new peace • A faith-filled perspective on grief, loneliness, and seasonal heaviness
