What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

HOLIDAY BEST OF: It's the Most Everything Time of the Year


Listen Later

We’re rerunning some of our favorite holiday episodes to keep you company while you do all the things this season. Listen to all of our holiday episodes in this Spotify playlist.

Are you juggling “dress as your favorite reindeer” day at preschool with frantic texts from your sister-in-law asking what your spouse wants for Christmas? Are you feeling like hiding under the covers instead of hitting the office holiday party? 

It’s the most everything time of the year, and women report the holidays as being far more stressful than men do. 

In this episode we discuss how to manage the holiday stress, how to accept the non-cozy feelings that may arise, and why it’s okay to dial back if you’re really not feeling the holiday spirit. 

Here are links to some of the writing on the topic that we discuss in this episode: 

  • Pooja Lakshmin on Instagram @womensmentalhealthdoc
  • Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research: Holiday Stress
  • Harvard Medical School: A holiday advisory for your emotions
  • Cedars-Sinai Hospital: Depression and Anxiety Around the Holidays
