Married After Kids

Ep. 138: What Your Marriage/Family Needs This Holiday Season


Listen Later

Want to have the best holiday ever - for yourself and your marriage? We’re digging into the thoughts and actions crucial for the best experience during family gatherings, festive parties, and the busiest season of the year. Being prepared is key to ensuring a holiday season that aligns with both your and your spouse’s desires.

 

In this episode, we explore:

  • How to reflect on our feelings and roles of past holidays, traditions, and expectations (and I unveil one unrealistic expectation that made me completely miserable!)

  • Understanding the role of your close family unit and extended families during the holidays

  • Discovering what to do if you’re feeling overwhelmed or disappointed about the holidays this year

  • Learning how to have each other’s back this season (and ensure YOU are getting the support you need)

  • Insights into what to prepare before planning your Christmas calendar, ensuring a stress-free and enjoyable holiday season.

  • My favorite tool to use daily throughout the holidays
