In this episode of Conversations with Bizzy, I reflect on the complexities of Thanksgiving and the emotional challenges that come with it. I discuss the unrealistic expectations set by media portrayals of holidays, the evolution of family dynamics over the years, and the importance of creating new traditions. I emphasize the need for emotional resilience, coping strategies, and the impact of social media on self-perception. Lastly, I touch on navigating political discussions during family gatherings and finding meaning beyond material possessions. 

 

Ultimately, I encourage you to seek connection and community, especially during the holiday season.
