56. Navigating the Holiday Season as Foster and Adoptive Families


Listen Later

In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges the holiday season brings for foster and adoptive families. 


For children from hard places, the holidays can be an especially sensitive time, filled with triggers and memories that may bring up grief or trauma. We discuss practical tips for navigating this season with empathy and care, including strategies for managing routines that often go awry and the added emotional toll that holiday gatherings can bring. 


Join us as we explore ways to support our kids—and ourselves—during this special yet complex time of year.


Episode Highlights: 

  • What’s Your Favorite Christmas Carol?
  • Navigating Relationships with Bio Parents During the Holidays 
  • Setting Boundaries During the Holidays 
  • Trauma & Triggers 
  • Navigating Tough Conversations
