Dealing with Difficult Family Members Over the Holidays Ep. 387


Listen Later

We’ve been in a series about how we handle family dynamics during the holidays. In past episodes, we’ve talked about staying present vs. distracted, connected vs. isolated, all while staying authentic to who we are as individuals. Today, we continue the conversation with some practical strategies for dealing with these conflicts. 


  • What do we do if a family member continues to make jabs at us (no, not that jab!)?
  • How do family systems play into these dynamics?
  • What roles can we play as individuals in our unique family system?
  • What if family feels threatened by our own personal growth and development?
  • These topics and so much more!


We hope today’s episode will leave you feeling empowered with practical strategies as you head into the holiday season with your loved ones!


Dive headfirst into the complexities of family dynamics, particularly focusing on estrangement and holiday conflicts. 


They discuss the importance of setting boundaries, the role of humor in easing tensions, and the challenges of confrontation within family settings.
