The holidays are supposed to be joyful… so why do they feel so heavy?
In this solo episode, Victoria gets honest about the emotional weight of the holidays, the grief of unmet fantasies, and the quiet loneliness that can show up even in the most festive moments. She breaks down the “holiday illusion,” explores why this season amplifies relationship pressure, and shares practical, grounding ways to move through the holidays without abandoning yourself.
This isn’t about forcing gratitude or pretending everything is okay. It’s about choosing presence, self-trust, and compassion — exactly where you are.
