You're Not Crazy: A Podcast for Cycle Breakers with Toxic Parents

How to Survive the Holidays with a Toxic Parent (Without Losing Your Sanity)


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt the mix of dread, guilt, and anxiety that shows up the second someone mentions “family holidays,” this episode will help you slow down, get perspective, and actually prepare—not just survive.

Torie breaks down:

  • Why so many adult children of toxic parents procrastinate holiday planning (and how that backfires)

  • How to build new holiday traditions that your family can’t ruin

  • Why your “holiday pie” needs more slices that have nothing to do with your family

  • How to set yourself up for a season that’s calmer, more grounded, and actually yours
