FIM 78: Merry F*ck It Christmas: F*ck You, I'm Santa; Co-Parenting & the Holidays with Julia Hoffman
Merry F*ck It Christmas, mamas!
This is part 1 of a special 8 part holiday series, devoted to helping moms ditch stressful obligations so that they can focus on the parts of the holidays that mean the most to them. Christmas CAN be the most wonderful time of the year for moms and the kids.
Host Amanda Haro is joined by Julia Hoffman as they dive into the intricacies of holidays after divorce. How can parents work together to create holiday magic for their kids now that they live in separate households? What’s the holiday schedule going to look like? How can you refocus when their other parent drops the ball?
Amanda and Julia share from their own personal experience of co-parenting after divorce, including:
How to figure out holiday child placement schedule in a peaceful way
How to stay focused on the kids instead of getting distracted arguing with their other parent
Letting go after you’ve been the primary magic maker of your family
Can Christmas be any other day or is it only on the 25th?
Figuring out presents
The Santa aspect (whose house does the big man stop at?)
Christmas and grief
Blending families
The first holiday without your kids
